While we see a steady improvement in the home sales data; it is important to keep a close eye on the credit side of this sector as well. Trouble in this area could have far more dire consequences for the broader financial markets – much less housing. Another interesting, but under-the-radar, report to keep an eye on is building discussion about State bankruptcies. This would be similar in nature to EU members going bankrupt.
