Housing Turns Ugly: South Hurt Worst

May 18, 2011 By Young Research

The number of new housing starts reported in April was a big disappointment. The 523,000 starts didn’t even break into the consensus range predicted by a Bloomberg survey of economists. The economists figured on 570,000 starts as the most likely number, but were disappointed when results came in 8.2% below their expectations. There were regional pockets where the numbers looked very bad. In the South, the number of new housing starts fell by 23% compared to March, the largest single-month decline since 1988. There were only 255,000 housing units started in the South in April, the lowest … [Read more...]

Enough With the Low Interest Rates! by Charles S. Schwab, The Wall Street Journal “The negative impact of current policy is clear. The near-zero interest rate experiment is weighing on consumer and investor confidence, and the Fed signals its lack of confidence with each "extended period" proclamation…Small businesses that create jobs are unable to borrow in any meaningful amounts except via 100% collateralized loans. Banks continue to hold large capital bases, mostly because they have no definitive signal yet from the federal government or regulators about what their capital requirements … [Read more...]

A CEO Polygraph

September 26, 2019 By Young Research

How Can You Tell If A CEO Is Lying? – Kyle Stock, DealJournal, The Wall Street Journal Conference call Q&As are a confusing and cryptic dance. Executives try to be attractive to investors, without giving away too much. In many cases, they are trying to put a good spin on bad results. But what if an investor could read right through all of the posturing and careful prose to know if they were being strung along? A pair of professors at Stanford recently tried to do just that. The team built a model that tries to flush out executive lies, using psychological and linguistic studies … [Read more...]

Quotable

September 26, 2019 By Young Research

From the July 28, 2010 Financial Times, Vulnerable to Vertigo “Using past forecast errors as a guide, the new UK Office for Budget Responsibility sees an 80 per cent chance that the British economy will grow between a negative 0.4 per cent and a positive 4.7 per cent in 2011, a range so wide it encompasses both boom and bust. Not much more helpful in diving the future is its calculation that there is a 50:50 chance that 2011 growth will be below 1.2 per cent or above 3.9 per cent.” From Andrew Ross Sorkin’s Too Big to Fail “Not everyone at the Fed was in agreement with Geithner’s … [Read more...]
