Residential Construction Spending Decreased 3.8% in February

A large drop in residential remodeling, likely to be revised away, dropped residential construction spending 3.8% in February but new residential construction spending fell only 2.0% in February. Single family activity is largely unchanged over the last six months but multi family spending declined over 8%. The decline is probably heavily for condos since real estate sources report a strengthening apartment market in line with rapid job growth. Then housing recovery still faces lots of headwinds, especially a 1-2 surplus of vacant homes and tens of millions of households locked out of the mortgage market. But the sustained economic recovery will gradually boost building activity beginning in the spring.

The restraints on housing are all gradually lessening.

Mortgage rates and Treasury rates increased this past week while CD interest rates, savings account rates and credit card rates moved lower.  Though, the results for Treasury and mortgage rates moved in opposite direction to bank savings rates and CD rates, the rate reduction for bank savings rates and CD rates was almost insignificant and the mortgage rate increases were quite soft.

Have You Considered Dividend Stocks?

One of the ways you can enhance your investing results is to consider dividend stocks. These are stocks that pay out regular dividends. These dividends represent a portion of the profits that a company makes. After these profits are used to make various overhead payments, and even reinvest in the company, there might be something left over. Rather than hoard all of that cash, some companies choose to reward shareholders with regular payments. Shareholders receive a certain amount per share, paid out on top of any gains in stock price. Dividends are usually paid quarterly, but some companies pay them monthly, semi-annually or annually.

Dividend paying stocks can be great choices for income portfolios, as well as for building up long-term gains for your retirement portfolio.
