December New Home Sales: Inventory of homes under construction highest since 2007
Graph shows new home sales for 2020 and 2021 by month (Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate). Sales in 2021 (762 thousand) were 7.3% below sales in 2020 (822 thousand). The year-over-year comparisons were easy in the first half of 2021 - especially in March and April. However, sales will be down year-over-year again in January since the sales were delayed in 2020 - and sales in the winter were strong.
...
The next graph shows the months of supply by stage of construction. “Months of supply” is inventory at each stage, divided by the sales rate.
The inventory of completed homes for sale was at 39 thousand in December, up from the record low of 33 thousand in March, April, May and July 2021. That is about 0.6 months of completed supply (red line). This is about half the normal level.
The inventory of new homes under construction is at 3.9 months (blue line) - well above the normal level. This elevated level of homes under construction is due to supply chain constraints. And 101 thousand homes have not been started - about 1.5 months of supply (grey line) - almost double the normal level.

Insurance not much better.
They still denying the MRI so I gotta play the game with PT.
How you gonna 'treat' something you do not know the root cause of still escapes me.
If I self-pay (MRI) then they will deny anything an ortho would say to do unless it was PT-dis ain't gonna be solved with PT-already know dat.
Got plenty of experience with these sort of probs but they treat everyone as stupid and having no idea cause they are the 'experts'.
Wanna blow-torch 'em all.
you did say dat...that is ridiculous.
Im still waiting for the hard copy's of mine requested weeks ago.
They wanted a selfie with muh ID-after I logged in and provided all the relevant deets to do that.
They all use these portals for info and comms that no one ever seems to check.
I have never trusted any of the Drs to "have them" so always bring them with-except nao cause i cant get them yet.
Evergrande aims for restructuring plan within 6 months as creditor talks begin
China Evergrande Group said it aimed to have an initial restructuring plan within six months during a long-awaited call with creditors on Wednesday, its first communication with them since the property giant's finances began to unravel last year.
Once China's top developer, Evergrande has debts of more than $300 billion and is struggling to repay creditors, suppliers and investors in wealth management products. It missed some dollar bond payments last month, sparking calls for talks.
Nearly $20 billion of Evergrande's international bonds are now deemed to be in default.
The company's newly-appointed executive director Siu Shawn, who is also the chairman of Evergrande New Energy Vehicle Group Ltd, said on the call that Evergrande was working on a comprehensive restructuring plan, which it aimed to propose within six months, adding that it hoped to work with creditors to achieve a risk management solution, a participant said.
Evergrande had on Monday sought more time from its offshore bondholders to work on a "comprehensive" debt restructuring plan, after a group of creditors said they were ready to take "all necessary actions" to defend their rights if it did not show more urgency to resolve a default.
The company's debt crisis has engulfed other Chinese developers, roiled global financial markets in the past year and contributed to a slump in China's property market, which accounts for a quarter of its economy.
A member of the developer's risk management committee, Chen Yong, also joined the 25-minute call which included prepared answers to questions, the participant added.
Chen is a compliance director of state-owned Guosen Securities. Andrew Huang, Evergrande's Hong Kong branch general manager, was also be present on the call, said the participant, declining to be named due to confidentiality constraints.
Evergrande set up the risk management committee in December with mostly members from state enterprises, as the Guangdong provincial government leads work on the firm's restructuring.
Evergrande has also asked the bondholders to disclose their holdings by the middle of this week to identify investors for communications, and hired more financial and legal advisers to follow up on creditor demands.

Federal Reserve points to interest rate hike coming in March
Facing both turbulent financial markets and raging inflation, the Federal Reserve on Wednesday indicated it could soon raise interest rates for the first time in more than three years.
In a move that came as little surprise, the Fed’s policymaking group said a quarter-percentage point increase to its benchmark short-term borrowing rate is likely forthcoming. It would be the first increase since December 2018.
The statement comes in response to inflation running at its hottest level in nearly 40 years. Though the move toward less accommodative policy has been well-telegraphed over the past several weeks, markets in recent days have been remarkably choppy as investors worried that the Fed might tighten policy even more than expected.
The post-meeting statement from the Federal Open Market Committee did not provide a specific time for when the increase will come, though indications are that it could happen as soon as the March meeting. The statement was adopted without dissent.
“With inflation well above 2 percent and a strong labor market, the Committee expects it will soon be
appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate,” the statement said. The Fed does not meet in February.
In addition, the committee noted the central bank’s monthly bond-buying will proceed at just $30 billion in February, indicating that program could end in March as well at the same time that rates increase.
There were no specific indications Wednesday when the Fed might start to reduce bond holdings that have bloated its balance sheet to nearly $9 trillion.

Chile Surprises Markets With 150 Basis Point Key Rate Hike
Chile’s central bank delivered its biggest interest rate hike in more than 20 years, signaling renewed urgency to drag soaring inflation back down to target.
The bank increased the overnight rate by 150 basis points to 5.5% on Wednesday. Eleven analysts in a Bloomberg survey expected a third straight hike of 125 basis points, while only three bet on a rise of 1.5 percentage points.
The central bank warned of significant risks for inflation, according to its statement. “In particular, the recent evolution of activity and inflation is somewhat above what was forecast in the December monetary policy report and inflationary pressures derived from the international scenario have increased,” the bank said.
Policy makers are struggling to contain the fastest annual inflation in 14 years amid record economic growth. Bank board members wrote after their last decision that it was important to not surprise financial markets on rates. Since then, consumer price increases topped forecasts for six consecutive months, global oil prices jumped and the recovery of the local labor market gathered steam.
