Triad Financial Services, ECN Result$, plus Manufactured Housing Industry Stock Updates

CNNmone5.21.2019ManufacturedHomeStocksMarketsReportsMHProNewsAs longtime readers of this evening report know, this report has evolved from the early days of our daily reporting. In more recent years, we not only provide readers with the closing tickers for manufactured home industry-connected equities, but we also give a snapshot of the broader markets. Furthermore, in our spotlight, we look at issues that may be political, economic, or industry specific which move investors.  Tonight’s focus report is very industry specific, ECN Capital, the parent company to one of the most enduring firms in all of manufactured housing, Triad Financial Services (Triad, or TFS).

If you’re new, already hooked on our new spotlight feature – or are ready to get the MH professional fever – our headline report is found further belowafter the newsmaker bullets and major indexes closing tickers.

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.

Manufactured Housing Industry positioned for increasing shipment rates as an affordable housing solution.”

That’s arguably true, but in fact the industry is in a 7-month downturn.  The MHProNews/MHLivingNews analysis based upon news tips, fact-checks, and background research reveals that many of the industry’s struggles are internal ones.

Nevertheless, Triad/ECN has managed to achieve growth during a time when other outside of the communities’ sector have struggled with.  That’s to their credit.

It should be noted that since Don Glisson, Jr. Triad’s president, stepped down as the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) chairmanship, each of the next three MHI chairman have had one or more legal, regulatory and other clouds of them and/or their firms.

Cavco’s former president stepped down after an SEC subpoena. There are so-called ‘black hat’ behaviors by prominent MHI member firms. Then there are MHI firms that are ‘white hat’ firms. Membership should not be construed automatically be viewed as an ethically led firm.

By contrast, Triad has seemingly been squeaky clean.  They are an apparent white hat firm in a trade group that has several high-profile ‘black hats.’

Back to the ECN presentation, we see:
