Podcast: Can Softer Labor Data Send Rates Even Lower?

Sticking with the weekly theme of Jobs Week and Lower Mortgage Rates, we discuss the recent labor data and what it has been telling us for months. As always, softer labor data isn’t breaking data.

However, today, I simply try to connect the dots.

For those who prefer a YouTube channel, HousingWire has its YouTube channel, and both podcasts each week will be there now.

Every weekend for HousingWire, we bring out the weekly HousingWire Tracker report, where I take a deep dive into the current and forward-looking housing data lines so you can be up to date with the data lines that matter in housing. If you would like to join HW Plus to have access to the tracker, please use my LoganVIP20 code.
