This Leading Home-Builder Is Falling, Here's The Trade $LEN

This morning, most of the leading home-builder stocks are coming under selling pressure. Home-builder stocks such as Lennar Corp (NYSE:LEN), Toll Brothers Inc (NYSE:TOL), DR Horton Inc (NYSE:DHI) and other are all trading lower by more than 3.0 percent today. Many investors are blaming the recent Redfin Corp (NASDAQ:RDFN) guidance for the decline in the home-building sector, but the industry group has been slumping since the start of 2018.

Lennar Corp (NYSE:LEN) is one particular home-builder that has caught my eye. This stock topped out on January 22, 2018 at $72.17 a share. Since that high pivot, the stock has steadily declined lower throughout the year. Today, LEN stock is trading down by $2.43 to $50.94 a share. Traders should note that the stock has been trading in a sideways range since mid-May. This pattern tells me that there is one more move lower to go before the stock finds a defined bottom. Traders and investors must now watch the $45.00 area as the next major support level for the home-builder. This is where the stock broke out in February 2017. Very often, prior break-out levels will serve as major support when retested.
