Key drivers

  • May first-print sales fell to 580 thousand SAAR from revised April 626 thousand
  • Recent Jan-May values show large month-to-month noise around a roughly 600 thousand level
  • May new-home inventory was high at 496 thousand and 10.3 months of supply
  • Single-family starts and permits were soft but not collapsing
  • Mortgage rates around late June and early July remained near 6.5 percent
