Is Now a Good Time to Buy a House or Not?
Manage episode 486445042 series 3341576
🚨 Live from Newport Beach, KP unpacks the real story behind mortgage rates, market rallies, and tariff threats—hint: it's more than just inflation numbers.
A poor 20-year Treasury auction and tariff tensions with the EU and Apple have markets on edge, but a surprising rally across all asset classes brings fresh perspective. Mortgage rates dip under 7% as a result, with buyers locking in fast.
Consumer confidence jumps unexpectedly, just as KP explains the “10-Day Rule” that proves timing in the market beats timing the market.
Home price growth is finally cooling—proof the Fed's “bend the curve” mission is working. But watch out: a $3.8T budget package and unsustainable fiscal path keep long-term yields high.
All eyes are now on Friday’s PCE report, the Fed’s favorite inflation measure, while liquidity fears and talk of energy innovation set the stage for what’s next.
