Today’s Big Movers

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –

When the left-of-center New York Times publishes an admission that the Trump effect is real, is it time for “never Trumpers” across the political spectrum to sit up and take notice? Will this market surge, and economic growth lead to a pro-Trump wave, instead of the widely anticipated anti-Trump wave Democrats have predicted? 

Who recalls President Clinton’s strategist, James Carville’s famous quip – “It’s the economy, stupid.”  The first video released today that is shown below is from left-of-center CNBC, with the second from right of center, Fox Business. 

 

With job creations – including among minorities, as the president promised – surging, and wages going up and expected to keep rising, what message will Trump opponents use to derail the growth that is too big to hide?

 

The chart from left-of-center Bloomberg is another reminder of what could be coming for manufactured housing.  Publicly traded firms routinely say in their reports to share holders that more jobs, more energy-sector jobs leads to more manufactured home sales.

TrumpOilEnergyDrillingPlanBloombergDailyBusinessNewsMHProNewsIf so, 2018 promises to be another year of industry growth.  It’s worth speculating, once more higher-paying Alaskan energy jobs open up, will factory-built home shipments to that state surge?
