These builders will be fun to short. Last week they jumped on weekly mortgage apps increase. Today mortgage apps tanked, but starts were better. The builders can start new construction, but if mortgage apps are down, maybe those new homes aren't selling? Wait for earnings next week and then a few days treading water. When they go down it will be hard and fast.
