US homebuilders look attractive because America remains structurally undersupplied with housing, and Berkshire Hathaway is buying quality builders while Wall Street focuses on near-term affordability pressure. Berkshire added about 2.74 million Lennar shares as elevated mortgage rates weigh on builder valuations, after acquiring Taylor Morrison and investing in D.R. Horton and NVR.

As the AI infrastructure crash takes form, its recessionary effect suppresses bond issuance and powerfully caps yields, giving battered housing, mortgage and related stocks a lift. Starwood Property Trust, Rocket Companies and Builders FirstSource should get a powerful boost as yields fall, with huge short covering and fundamental improvement; many in the group trade well below book value. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Home Depot and homebuilders look awful and have broken below support. Both offer a lot of value and are way oversold, but they need interest rates, inflation and oil to come down before they can recover. x.com 

Select housing stocks blown out by weak starts, high rates, poor affordability and high commodity prices could rebound into the midterms, as the administration likely pulls levers to control rates. The Treasury secretary may use a bigger tool at next month's refunding after a $6B buyback failed, the Fed is less likely to hike than priced, and a housing plan, such as down-payment aid or federal-land supply, may be announced. QXO, Lowe's, Builders FirstSource and Simpson Manufacturing fit. x.com

Homebuilder stocks are priced for a soft landing that the inventory data doesn't support. New home supply hit 10.3 months, the highest since February 2009, against a long-term median of about 6, after jumping a full month in May. In 6 of the 7 times it reached this level since the 1970s, the US was already in recession. Mortgage rates and record ownership costs keep buyers out, and when builders cut prices hard to clear supply, margins will take the hit and the sector will reprice. x.com  x.com 

Far less inflated valuations and significant AI earnings make US equities unlike the dot-com market top. AI/SI spending may still be overexuberant. Rates and yields have returned to historical averages; more oil through the Strait of Hormuz and from OPEC and Russia should lower oil and inflation. The market may not have bottomed yet, but falling yields, steady rates and the midterms passing should let it climb the wall of worry. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Homebuilders should benefit as the dollar falls, yields hit a wall and bonds catch a bid. Industries that gain from fading yields and a weaker dollar should stay the hottest hand for the coming months, and multi-month accumulation without selloffs reveals what the market is pricing in, beyond the headlines. Homebuilders, tied to mortgage companies, generally do well in this period; they may not offer the biggest gains but are less volatile than other lower-dollar plays. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Homebuilders are cyclical stocks tied to interest rates, which makes them unappealing. x.com 

Home construction stocks are rallying as money rotates into under-owned, lower-volatility areas, helped by earnings. Regional banks, transports and medical devices are ripping too, while overcrowded, highly margined growth-at-any-cost areas such as semiconductors are being unwound. x.com
