Bet Against the Housing Haters

Numbers were good today.

One thing that no one is talking about is the fact that mortgage rates have soared in recent months, due to “taper fever.” But with rates coming down again and the Fed firmly in control, I am betting that the housing starts and sales will begin to show significant year over year improvements.

My favorite ways to play this is via MHO, ANGI, TRLA, BZH and USG. There are other plays worth considering, like BLDR, MAS and FBHS. However, the pure way to play it is via the god damned homies.

The thesis is very simple. The US government cannot afford higher rates because of its debt load. Therefore, the Fed will keep them low, forever, effectively buttressing the housing market. The only way housing declines from here is a giant bubble bursting, which would mean the end of western finance anyway. So who cares, right?

Pick one and buy it, then walk away.

As for ANGI: it is, by far, the cheapest social media stock worth buying today. It is almost 4x cheaper than YELP and just as useful, if not more. I use YELP to stuff my face. However, I use ANGI to make permanent home improvements, which costs me a lot of money. ANGI is a buy up to $50.

    LEN is my play here. They bot a lot of land of the coattails of the FDIC when they were running around the country shutting down community banks and making local ddevelopers go banko. Their Rialto group subsidiary is land rich with developable lots. Lots are going to be in short supply as the conveyor belt has been shut down for 5 years.

    Took some profits in YELP. I guess I’ll have to put that into ANGI.

    NBD on the TSE reinstated their dividend in April. It is an large company that makes OSB and has benefited from the housing rebound.
