Good NEWS!

10yr bonds, which is what mortgage rates follow not the Fed rate, are crashing.

5% mortgage rates on the near horizon. Coupled with an excess 500,000 more homes for sale than buyers, (1st time ever) and Prices will begin to drop quickly.

Trying hard to be fair here.

Let’s say he’s right and somehow miraculously they’re able to get new production (outside of chips) up to speed quickly here in the US vs Asia.

How exactly do they compete in price given labor is 2X-10X more here than there?

Or is he just not saying the quiet part: we’ll make it here but you’ll pay a lot more for it?
