The 21st Century ROAD To Housing Act
<p>The term ROAD means Renewing Opportunity in the American Dream.</p><p>The act Act became law on July 11 without the President’s signature. It passed with enough votes in the Congress and the Senate that there was no possibility of presidential Veto. It is a sprawling piece of legislation containing dozens of provisions covering housing supply, financing, manufactured housing, building codes, environmental review, affordable housing programs and institutional ownership of single-family homes.</p><p>The Act restricts large institutional investors from purchasing additional single-family homes once they control at least 350 homes, subject to several exceptions. Existing portfolios are no...
Global Shipping Is At Risk
<p>The Strait of Hormuz is capturing headlines again as conflict between the United States and Iran escalates. Some commercial operators are reportedly refusing passage even with military escorts because crews and shipowners do not believe the risk can be managed. But viewing Hormuz as an isolated crisis misses the larger trend. Commercial shipping is increasingly becoming a weapon of war, economic coercion, and political leverage across multiple regions.</p><p>We have seen attacks and interference in the Gulf of Aden, the Black Sea, the Sea of Azov, the Baltic Sea, and around strategic infrastructure in Central America. Ships...
What The New CPI Data Tells Us
<p>Yesterday’s inflation report delivered a surprise. Headline prices fell sharply, but the important story was beneath the headline. This was not a gasoline story. Core inflation was unchanged for the month, and several categories that have kept inflation stubbornly high moved lower. For investors, that distinction matters because it changes the conversation around interest rates today.</p><p>The new report is the Consumer Price Index, not the Personal Consumption Expenditures index that the Federal Reserve prefers. The PCE report still showed elevated inflation. But the CPI components give us a preview of where price pressure may be he...

The Legacy of a Structural Failure
<p>Today's podcast continues our discussion of the structural failure at the former Pfizer headquarters in Midtown Manhattan, where a massive office-to-residential conversion suffered localized structural distress during construction.</p><p>The investigation has only begun. Engineers have not yet reached any conclusions about the root cause, and it would be inappropriate to speculate. The building may ultimately be repaired, strengthened, and safely completed. Or investigators may determine that more extensive reconstruction is required. We simply don't know.</p><p>But even before the engineering investigation is complete, another consequence has already begun to unfold.</p><p>Reputation.</p><p>...
