Shares of housing-related stocks are trading higher after the Fed policy decision to cut rates by 50 basis points, which could help curb housing unaffordability and increase demand.

New construction on single-family homes in the U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32926608/us-housing-starts-skyrocket-to-highest-level-since-2016-sign-of-strong-market-optimism-among-builder">jumped in August</a> as mortgage rates trend downward and the Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates on Wednesday for the first time in four years.

Single-Family Housing Starts Are Up As Mortgage Rates Decline, Fed Eyes Lower Rates

Prospective homebuyers are holding off on<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/06/39465243/u-s-home-sales-decline-for-third-month-as-record-prices-pose-persistent-affordability-challenges-dur"> buying new homes</a> as they bet on mortgage rates falling further, causing slow home sales, according to builders.
And why wouldn&#8217;t they wait?
In the week ending Aug. 23, the average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with conforming loan balances of $766,550 slipped from <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/mortgage-rates-hit-17-month-200029576.html?fr=yhssrp_catchall">6.5% to 6.44%</a>. This marks the lowest level since April 2023 and the fourth consecutive week of rate declines, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).

&#8220;As observed in recent weeks, despite lower rates, purchase applications have not moved much,&#8221; said Joel Kan, MBA's vice president and deputy chief economist. 
&#8220;Prospective homebuyers are staying patient now that rates are moving lower and for-sale inventory has started to increase.&#8221; 
Mortgage applications saw a modest increase of 0.5% from the previous week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association's (MBA) Weekly Applications Survey.
Refinancing activity showed a slight decline. The Refinance Index fell by 0.1% from the prior week, though it remains 85% higher than the same week last year, reflecting a robust annual surge in homeowners looking to take advantage of the lower rates.
Adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) also saw a decrease in interest rates. The average contract interest rate for 5/1 ARMs fell to 5.98% from 6.25%, indicating some relief for borrowers seeking more flexible loan terms.
Existing home sales increased for the first time in five months as falling mortgage rates have convinced prospective buyers to take out loans. However, sales are still slow as homeowners with mortgage rates around 3% wait for rates to fall even further, according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).
Total existing-home sales rose 1.3% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.95 million in July. This marks the first increase after four months of declines. On a year-over-year basis, sales were still 2.5% lower than a year ago.
&#8220;Despite these changes, sales remained sluggish and low inventory continued to push up median home prices,&#8221; the NAHB said on Monday.
Homeowners with lower mortgage rates have opted to stay put, avoiding trading existing mortgages for new ones with higher rates.
This &#8220;lock-in&#8221; trend is causing home prices to rise and holding back inventory, but this trend should reverse as mortgage rates keep declining, the NAHB said.
&#8220;Mortgage rates are expected to continue to decrease gradually, leading to increased demand (and unlocking more of the lock-in inventory) in the coming quarters,&#8221; it said.
Price Action: Mortgage companies moved modestly on Wall Street into Thursday&#8217;s mid-afternoon trading.

<li>UWM Holdings Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UWMC#NYSE">UWMC</a>) declined 0.93% to $9.07</li>

Homebuyers Turn Screws On Builders As Mortgage Rates Are Telegraphed To Fall

CVCO

Shares of household durable companies are trading higher following strong New Home Sales economic data for July. Also, the sector may be moving in sympathy with the market after Fed Chair Powell offered an optimistic U.S. economic outlook and indicated future rate cuts.

Shares of homebuilders are trading higher in sympathy with Toll Brothers, which reported better-than-expected Q3 financial results and issued guidance above estimates.

Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tol#NYSE">TOL</a>) is scheduled to report third-quarter fiscal 2024&nbsp; (ended Jul 31, 2024) results on Aug 20, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company&#39;s earnings missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 18.2%, but revenues beat the mark by 12.6%. Earnings and revenues increased 18.6% and 13.2% from the prior-year period, respectively.
On an encouraging note, earnings topped analysts&#39; expectations in three of the trailing four quarters and missed on another occasion, the average surprise being 12.9%.
<h3>Trend in Estimate Revision</h3>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the fiscal third-quarter earnings per share increased to $3.28 from $3.25 over the past 60 days. The said figure indicates a 12.1% decline from the year-ago EPS of $3.73.
The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $2.7 billion, indicating 0.3% year-over-year growth.

</div>
<h3>Factors to Note</h3>
Toll Brothers&#39; fiscal third-quarter home sales are expected to have increased slightly from the year-ago reported level, given higher deliveries. Although higher mortgage rates will impact the volumes to some extent, low-existing homes for sale have been driving demand for new homes in the market. This tailwind is likely to have helped the company drive growth.
This apart, its focus on luxury move-up buyers, who already possess a residence and are looking to shift to larger and better homes, will somewhat contribute to the revenues. Toll Brothers has been enjoying greater pricing power than other homebuilding companies, as luxury homebuyers are less sensitive to price changes. The company has also been benefiting from the strategy of broadening its product lines, price points and geographies, along with spec sales.
On the fiscal second-quarter earnings call, TOL stated that it expects higher home deliveries within 2,750-2,850 units from 2,524 units delivered in the prior-year quarter (considering the midpoint) at an average price of $950,000-$960,000 (suggesting a decline from $1,059,100 a year ago).
Higher land, labor and raw material costs, along with high incentives, are expected to put pressure on the fiscal third-quarter margins. Toll Brothers expects the adjusted home sales gross margin to be 27.7%, implying a decrease from 29.3% reported in the year-ago period. SG&amp;A expenses are estimated to be 9.2% of home sales revenues, indicating a rise from 8.6% reported in the year-ago period. The company expects the effective tax rate to be 26%. 
Our Estimates 
Our model predicts home sales revenues to decline 0.7% year over year to $2.66 billion due to a lower ASP projection of $955,300 (down 9.9% year over year). We expect deliveries to grow 10.1% year over year to 2,779 units in the quarter.
We expect net signed contracts to be around 2,904 units, indicating an improvement of 29.3% from the prior-year reported figure.
Our model predicts a backlog of 7,217 units, indicating a decline of 1.1% from the year-ago period. The same for the backlog (in values) is pegged at $7.57 billion, implying a decline of 3.9% from the $7.87 million recorded at the third quarter of fiscal 2023-end.
<h3>What Our Quantitative Model Predicts</h3>
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Toll Brothers this time around. This is because a stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for this to happen. Unfortunately, this is not the case here, as you will see below.
Earnings ESP: Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is 0.00%. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they&#39;re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Zacks Rank: The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3.
<h3>Peer Releases</h3>
Meritage Homes Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mth#NYSE">MTH</a>) reported impressive second-quarter 2024 results, wherein the earnings and total closing revenues topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate and grew year over year.
MTH&#39;s quarterly results were backed by resilient housing demand and the company&#39;s progress in delivering quick-turning and affordable move-in-ready homes. Meritage Homes now expects 14,750-15,500 home closings for the year, up from the prior expected range of 14,500-15,000. The closings are now likely to generate revenues between $6.1 billion and $6.3 billion, up from the priorly expected range of $6-$6.2 billion.
NVR, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvr#NYSE">NVR</a>) reported mixed second-quarter 2024 results, with earnings missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate while Homebuilding revenues surpassed the same. On the other hand, both metrics increased on a year-over-year basis.
The upside was backed by improved demand trends, which resulted in higher settlements. Although the cancelation rate increased during the second quarter, growth in new orders and increased ASP of new orders are encouraging for the company&#39;s prospects. Settlements in the quarter were up 11% year over year to 5,659 units. New orders increased 3% from the prior-year quarter&#39;s level to 6,067 units. On a unit basis, backlog at the end of Jun 30, 2024, improved 3% from the prior-year quarter&#39;s figure to 11,597 homes and 6% on a dollar basis to $5.45 billion.
PulteGroup Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/phm#NYSE">PHM</a>) reported stellar results in the second quarter of 2024, wherein earnings and revenues handily beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. On a year-over-year basis, both the bottom and top lines increased.
PHM saw significant benefits from key factors that drove its success. The company&#39;s balanced operating model resulted in increases in closings, average sales price and gross margin, which collectively led to a 19.3% increase in EPS. Effective management of sales price, pace and starts on a community-by-community basis enabled the company to achieve high returns on invested capital and equity, evidenced by a 27.1% return on equity over the past 12 months.

Earnings Misses

NVR Stock Down on Q2 Earnings Miss, Homebuilding Revenues Top

Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) share price has been on a remarkable ascent, trading above $800. This puts the retail giant in prime stock-split territory.
Historically, stock splits occur after substantial price increases, and Costco&#8217;s impressive growth makes it a noteworthy candidate for such a move.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Will Costco Follow Rival Walmart&#8217;s Footsteps?</h3>
Walmart Inc&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) 3-for-1 stock split, initiated when its shares were trading below $200, sets a precedent. Costco&#8217;s stock price has far surpassed this level, climbing nearly 30% year-to-date and almost tripling over the past five years. The company's consistent performance and its share price near record highs suggest it could follow Walmart's example.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Financials Bolster Future Outlook</h3>
Costco's revenue growth remains robust. The company reported a 6.9% increase in net sales for the first 44 weeks of the year and a 5.3% rise in June's comparable sales. E-commerce continues to grow at a double-digit rate, bolstering the company's financial outlook. 
Moreover, Costco's recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39728606/whats-going-on-with-costco-stock-thursday">decision to raise</a> its annual membership fee by $5 indicates confidence in continued growth without alienating its customer base.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Is A Costco Stock Split Eminent?</h3>
Despite these indicators, Costco has not split its stock since 2000, when shares were valued below $100. A stock split would make shares more accessible to a broader range of investors, potentially spurring further interest and investment. The question remains whether Costco will act soon or hold off until the stock price hits $1,000 or more.
A stock split could attract more attention and help Costco maintain its market leadership. However, some argue that a high share price alone isn&#8217;t a strong enough reason for a split. Companies like NVR Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVR#NYSE">NVR</a>) have high stock prices but haven&#8217;t split their shares.
Ultimately, whether Costco opts for a stock split or not, its impressive financial performance and strong market position make it a solid long-term investment.

Costco Is In Prime Stock Split Territory: Will It Follow Walmart's Lead?

This compares to earnings of $116.54 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -0.79%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this homebuilder would post earnings of $106.03 per share when it actually produced earnings of $116.41, delivering a surprise of 9.79%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.
NVR, which belongs to the Zacks Building Products - Home Builders industry, posted revenues of $2.55 billion for the quarter ended June 2024, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.66%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $2.28 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock&#39;s immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management&#39;s commentary on the earnings call.
NVR shares have added about 23.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gain of 16.7%.
What&#39;s Next for NVR?
While NVR has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors&#39; minds is: what&#39;s next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company&#39;s earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for NVR: favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company&#39;s just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $130.78 on $2.67 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $494.69 on $10.12 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Building Products - Home Builders is currently in the top 25% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Meritage Homes (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mth#NYSE">MTH</a>), is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2024. The results are expected to be released on July 24.
This homebuilder is expected to post quarterly earnings of $5.17 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +3%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.5% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.
Meritage Homes&#39; revenues are expected to be $1.58 billion, up 0.5% from the year-ago quarter.

NVR's (NVR) third-quarter results exhibited solid revenue growth and increasing orders. The company's long-term prospects appear bright with a rapidly growing population and steady financial performance. So, let's analyze whether this is the homebuilder's stock to buy now. Read more to find out... NVR, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/NVR/">NVR</a>) is one of the largest homebuilding and mortgage banking companies in the U.S. The company operates through its Homebuilding and Mortgage Banking segments and engages in the construction and sale of single-family detached homes, townhomes, and condominium buildings under names like Ryan Homes, NVHomes, and Heartland Homes.
The company recently reported its third-quarter financial results. The company's revenues from the Homebuilding segment marked strong growth of 6.6% year-over-year to $2.68 billion. Its consolidated revenues for the nine months that ended September 30, 2024, were $7.68 billion, up 8% from the same period of 2023.
During the third quarter, NVR's new orders increased by 19% to 5,650 units, compared to 4,746 units in the third quarter of 2023, and the average sales price of new orders was $450,700. Further, settlements in the third quarter increased 5% to 5,908 units, from 5,606 units in the prior-year quarter, where the average settlement price was $453,200, up 1% year-over-year.
In September, the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/us-single-family-homebuilding-rises-five-month-high-2024-10-18/">U.S. single-family homebuilding surged at 2.7%</a>, marking its five-month high, and building permits for single-family housing were also up. Also, the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/us-home-builder-confidence-rises-second-straight-month-2024-10-17/">NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index</a> surged to 43 in the current month from 41 in September, indicating increasing confidence in the U.S. home builders.
Also, rapid global population growth, economic growth, and increasing disposable income of consumers are surging activities like acquisition and development of land, and construction and sale of residential homes. The residential building construction market is expected to reach around <a href="https://www.thebusinessresearchcompany.com/report/residential-building-construction-global-market-report">$5.80 trillion by 2028</a>, growing at a CAGR of 5.8%.
Moreover, the recently announced fed rate cuts will benefit the homebuilding sector and operations of NVR since prospective buyers who have been holding out for lower mortgage rates will now become active. This will also strengthen the company's market position and competitiveness.
Shares of NVR have gained 20.9% over the past six months and 71.4% over the past year to close its last trading session at $9438.35.
