US DATA: Oct existing home sales +1.4% to 5.22 mln SAAR (-5.1% y/y, largest drop
since taper tantrum), slightly ahead of expectations for 5.18m. This followed an
unrevised 5.15m rate in Sept. Even with this gain NAR's Yun suggested the
housing market is "still not on solid ground."
- NAR's Yun noted that higher rates are choking off home buying activity and
nearly 20% of current owners appear unwilling to let go of their current low
mortgage rates. He noted that with inflation softening, it may be time for the
Federal Reserve to pause its tightening pace and allow the housing market to
recover.
- Sales were +0.9% for single-family homes and +5.3% for condos. Sales rose in
NE (+1.5%), South (+1.9%) and West (+2.8%), but declined in the MW (-0.8%).
- The supply of homes -1.6% to 1.85m, +2.8% y/y. The months supply slipped to
4.3 months from 4.4 months in Sept, but above the 3.9 months supply a year ago.
The median sales price slipped in Oct to $255,400, but +3.8% from a year
earlier, still outpacing the pace of wage growth.
