The evolving Daily Business News market report sets the manufactured home industry’s stocks in the broader context of the overall markets.  Headlines – at home and abroad – often move the markets.  So, this is an example of “News through the lens of manufactured homes, and factory-built housing.” ©

Part of this unique evening feature provides headlines – from both sides of the left-right media divide – which saves busy readers time, while underscoring topics that may be moving investors, which in turn move the markets.

Readers say this is also a useful quick-review tool that saves researchers time in getting a handle of the manufactured housing industry, through the lens of publicly-traded stocks connected with the manufactured home industry.

This is an exclusive evening or nightly example of MH “Industry News, Tips and Views, Pros Can Use.” © It is fascinating to see just how similar, and different, these two lists of headlines can be.

Industry Equities Snapshot

Even a few seconds glance at the Bloomberg closing ticker snapshot below will reveal that most manufactured home industry tracked stocks are at or near their 1-year lows. That mirrors the trend for the broader market, which continues the slide down that began before the midterms.

Earlier today, the Daily Business News spotlighted what is an apparently well-intended effort by a manufactured housing state association to cheer on investing in manufactured housing communities.  To see the report, click the image/textbox below.

State Association Steps Up, Promoting Manufactured Home Communities Investing

Noting the good intent, the strongest case for communities are facts and news like ELS’ latest below.  Note that ELS is bucking the general trend downward among MH equities.

The case can be made that manufactured housing historically performed as well or better during downturns, precisely because it is affordable housing.  There will always be a market for affordable homes, so long as the product is properly understood.  That’s in part a messaging matter.

One of the many indicators that manufactured housing isn’t properly understood by many – including some in the investment community – is precisely the slide reflected below.

The slide – especially in purely or mostly manufactured home stocks – is arguably one more indicator that the post-production Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) is failing the majority of the industry, in favor of a select few.  They are desire praise for photo ops and Facebook likes, then don’t they deserve a measure of accountability when matters are obviously growing awry?

Now, on to the comments of Jim Cramer from earlier today.

‘Rich people won’ — Cramer on how Fed rate hikes widen wealth gap, hurting working Americans

·        The central bank led by Jerome Powell is taking money out of the pockets of the middle class, says CNBC’s Jim Cramer.

·        “We had seven years when the rich got really rich,” while the middle class struggled for a decade with stagnant wages,” the “Mad Money” host says.

·        Wealthy people can better afford to take shelter in money market accounts, he adds.

The rich people won,” Cramer said on “Squawk on the Street.”We had seven years when the rich got really rich,” while the middle class struggled for a decade with stagnant wages. “They didn’t make their money during the period where you could make money,” he added.

The wealthy can better afford to shelter in money market accounts because they don’t have to chase yield to make money, Cramer said. “They can buy CDs now. They can sell all they want. You get 3.5 [percent rates]. I bought some 3.5 [percent] CDs yesterday, and I feel pretty good. They’re out five years, and I’m older now, and I’m not trying to hit it out of the park with index funds.”

Wednesday evening, Cramer said: “The only people who should be really happy about this statements are the rich: your wealth will be preserved. If you work for a living, you’re probably getting a raise after a lost decade of wage growth. Powell wants to put a stop to that.”

Yay, the rich don’t have to worry; don’t have to worry about a slowdown. Because do you know why? You only have to get rich once. But the not-so-rich, sorry,” said Cramer. In Powell’s “dogmatic world, you’re making too much money as it is.”

Ouch.  But it’s a comment akin to what Steve Forbes and others have said recently about the Fed’s policies.
