BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust’s (BLW) (the 'Fund') investment objective is to provide current income and capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in three distinct asset classes: • intermediate duration, investment grade corporate bonds, mortgage-related securities, asset-backed securities and US Government and agency securities; • senior, secured floating rate loans made to corporate and other business entities; and • US dollar-denominated securities of US and non-US issuers rated below investment grade and, to a limited extent, non-US dollar denominated securities of non-US issuers rated below investment grade. The Fund’s portfolio normally has an average portfolio duration of less than five years (including the effect of anticipated leverage), although it may be longer from time to time depending on market conditions. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

US Pending Home Sales Crash Most In 5 Years

 

Following Case-Shiller's report that home price gains are the weakest in four years, Pulte Homes' CEO admission that 2019 will be a "challenging year," and existing home sales carnage, Pending Home Sales were expected to very modestly rebound in December.

 

But it didn't!

 

Pending home sales dropped 2.2% MoM (versus a 0.5% expected rise) to the lowest since 2014

 

Yet another sign the housing market is struggling amid elevated property prices and borrowing costs - but there's always hope…

 

“The stock market correction hurt consumer confidence, record high home prices cut into affordability and mortgage rates were higher in October and November for consumers signing contracts in December,” NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun said in a statement.

 

But with mortgage rates declining recently and the Fed less likely to raise borrowing costs, “the forecast for home transactions has greatly improved.”

 

Finally, the Realtors group forecasts a decline in annual home sales to 5.25 million this year from 5.34 million in 2018, which would mark the first back-to-back drops since the last recession.

However, Apple has spared Facebook the ultimate punishment. It hasn't removed its apps from the App Store, which would be significantly more damaging both to Facebook's users metrics and, we imagine, its share price.

Price gains across the board. Case-Shiller is macro and not area specific in overall report.
