Its beginning to smell like Fed spirit! As the 2024 Presidential election rapidly approaches, The Fed will be pressured into lower interest rates to haul Biden’s befuddled and corrupt ass across the finish line. Or his replacement, Greasy Gavin Newsom. (Leaving an oil slick in his wake).
Lowering the mortgage rate will benefit the real estate market, which is currently been “Biden’d.” Due to inflation and The Fed’s mission to crush inflation.
High mortgage rates that approached 8% earlier this month continue to hammer builder confidence, but recent economic data suggest housing conditions may improve in the coming months.
Builder confidence in the market for newly built single-family homes in November fell six points to 34 in November, according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI) released today. This is the fourth consecutive monthly drop in builder confidence, as sentiment levels have declined 22 points since July and are at their lowest level since December 2022. Also of note, nearly the entire HMI data for November was collected before the latest Consumer Price Index was released and showed that inflation is moderating.
Mortgage rates will likely decline in 2024 as The Fed reverses its inflation-crushing policy for Presidential election interference.
And Morgan Stanley forecasts the Fed Funds Rate to plunge to 2.375%.
Joe Biden is 80 and not exactly the most energetic President that can inspire confidence.
Maybe the economy needs Viagra.
I really wish Biden would stop babbling about “his” approach to economic growth, a Chinese Communist approach of top down economic management.
Under Biden, Americans have seen a 17.6% price hike and a 3% pay cut. Inflation has averaged 5.9% — more than double the level of inflation under any of the last four presidents.
