That has certainly quieted, Pulte’s attentions are diverted, and you can certainly buy stock in them now: share prices for both are down about 30 percent this year so maybe they’re a bargain. For those new to the biz, the FHFA oversees F&F, and the FHFA’s...Read More | ||

| 6/8/2026 8:57 AM | ||

| 6/5/2026 9:08 AM | ||
| Buzz has been growing around the labor market for the past several months, but today"s jobs report went the extra mile to make it official. The job market is officially re-accelerating.
