Homebuilders DHI reported a beat and is up 8% today. PHM also reported a beat but is down 2.8% right now. Go figure.
MHO CC transcript is on SA now. Mgmt sounds positive going forward. They were asked about the big drop in builder stocks yesterday and called it a crazy over-reaction to a miss in new home sales numbers yesterday. They expect the number will be revised. Backlog continues to grow nicely. Their guidance maintains expected margins for the year at 20-21%, despite being at the bottom of that range in the just reported quarter due to cost pressures. Stock is making a recovery from ealier losses again this morning and is nearly back to even now. Very surprised it is selling for below book value which is now at $28.56
