Homebuilder Stocks Seen as Likely to Fall -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-07

11:58 ET -- Homebuilder stocks are likely to fall further this earnings season due to probable downward earnings revisions and still high valuations, say JPMorgan analysts. "We believe the Iran conflict and a [40 basis point] rise in mortgage rates since early March have resulted in a less confident consumer and more choppy demand trends for the housing market," the analysts say. As a result, they expect downside to their first-quarter order growth and gross margin estimates, as well as cuts to earnings expectations. The analysts expect that NVR and Century Communities are particularly likely to underperform the industry with the analysts' 2026 gross margin estimates for both builders below their peer averages.
