Home builder stocks are crashing
Home builder stocks are crashing Two of the biggest home builder stocks Lennar and Dr Horton are facing serious headwinds. Unsold excess inventory is starting to show up on the financials as more and more homes get completed. In the last 3 months, shares in Lennar and Dr Horton are down 27.5% and 27.2% respectively. The company is using mortgage rate buy downs as a way to prop up sales but its no longer working. Margins are compressing and profits are eroding. Not a good sign for the residential market.
