- Wednesday, April 24, 12:19 PM Meritage Homes (MTH +5.2%) moves higher today on a solid Q1 earnings beat this morning. The number of closed homes for the quarter jumped 17% as closing surged 39% and orders jumped 35%. What's really driving the stock right now is its forecast for FY13. The homebuilder's EPS forecast, based on a 40% increase in closings revenue the rest of the year, puts the midpoint of its profit estimate more than 15% above consensus views - which were already double that from 2012. It now expects to earn between $2.20 - 2.45, versus Street estimates of $2.04. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]

After-hours top losers: BEAT -11%. RCII -6%. HOV -5%. RFMD -5%. REGI -4%. 1 Comment [On the Move] - Monday, April 15, 11:44 AM Homebuilders are taking a hit today on the back of weaker-than-expected housing data: XHB -2.7%, KBH -4.7%, TOL -4.5%, DHI -4.3%, PHM -4.1%, HOV -3.7%, LEN -3.2%, BZH -3.3%. Comment! [On the Move]
- Tuesday, January 29, 12:22 PM Shares of Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV +3.5%) get a boost today from an upgrade to Neutral from Compass Point. The firm says HOV's risk profile has declined markedly over the past few quarters and there's room for sustainable profitability in 2014. It cautions, however, that the company will not achieve a positive book value until its DTA is reversed in perhaps 2015-2016, and its equity value remains dependent upon that metric improving.

After-hours top losers: FIVE -4%. CIE -4%. PCRX -3%. HOV -3%. FULT -3%. Comment! [On the Move] - Friday, January 11, 3:54 PM Another homebuilder languishing today in spite of Merrill's positive comments is Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV -1%). JP Morgan upped its rating from Underweight to Neutral, but warns that the company's capital structure requires additional equity, and its adjusted price-to-book is highly expensive. 3 Comments [On the Move]
- Thursday, December 13, 2012, 3:36 PM Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV -6%) is down today, despite posting better FQ4 revenue this morning on strong Y/Y sales gains. Net losses narrowed as the home builder reported strong growth in new contracts and home deliveries. Home builders have seen improved bottom lines, boosted by increased orders and housing starts, as the housing market slowly continues to show signs of improvement. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 2:59 PM Everything to do with homebuilding moves up today on September's housing data surge: Hovanian (HOV +9.5%), KB Home (KBH +8.3%), Toll Bros. (TOL +2.5%), Ryland (RYL +4.4%), Standard Pacific (SPF +3.8%) and Meritage Homes (MTH +3.4%) all trade higher, as well as makers of fixtures like faucets and cabinets: Masco (MAS +1.4%), Fortune Brands Home & Security (FBHS +3%) and American Woodmark (AMWD +3%). 1 Comment [On the Move, U.S. Economy]

KIOR -9%. 2 Comments [On the Move] - Wednesday, September 26, 2012, 3:57 PM Home builders (XHB -2.5%) have been selling off amid the surprise slight decline in new home sales last month. MFR isn't buying into the housing recovery mantra, believing it will be "quite some time" before seeing sustained strength, owing to continued intense competition from a huge overhang of existing homes. HOV -5.6%, SPF -5.3%, PHM -4.7%. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, September 24, 2012, 1:13 PM Homebuilders slip despite a strong report from Lennar (LEN -2%) earlier today. MarketWatch's Sam Mamudi warns that much of the sector has already had a huge bounce, and with a slew of housing data due out this week, most of it is second-tier stuff and already baked into share prices, so we could be in for some heavy profit-taking on some of the bigger movers in the sector: TOL-1%, DHI -1.7%, HOV -1.3%, PHM -1.3%. ETFs: XHB -1.2%, ITB -1.4%. 1 Comment [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 3:07 PM Hovnanian (HOV -3.5%) slips today despite beating on its FQ3 bottom line, as revenue disappoints on the whisper number. Total sales jumped 35% Y/Y, as the home builder saw double-digit revenue growth and an increase in net contracts, the latest sign of improvement in the housing market. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 10:46 AM No bad news is good new for the homebuilders today, as the July Existing Home Sales report comes in largely as expected. Still, today's data shows that existing home sales are sharply underperforming the new home market, as seen in the contrast between today's small sales rise and last Thursday's 6.8% housing permits jump to a cycle-high 812k rate. TOL +4.7%, NVR +0.5%, DHI +5.1%, MDC +5.2%, LEN +4.9%, HOV +4,2%, RYL +4.8%, BZH +3.8%. ETFs: XHB +2%, ITB +2.8%. Comment! [On the Move, U.S. Economy]
- Thursday, July 19, 2012, 11:26 AM Homebuilders are weak this morning on the back of less-than-stellar June Existing Home Sales numbers and a disappointing quarter from NVR (NVR -10%): D.R. Horton (DHI -0.1%), MDC (MDC -1.3%), Lennar (LEN -0.7%), Hovanian (HOV -2.6%), Ryland (RYL -2.1%). ETFs: XHB -0.1%, ITB -2%, PKB -0.4% Comment! [On the Move, U.S. Economy]
- Friday, July 13, 2012, 9:51 AM Hovnanian (HOV +10.5%) jumps after announcing a land banking arrangement worth up to $125M with Blackstone's (BX) GSO Capital arm. GSO will buy land parcels from Hovnanian, and option finished lots back to the company. In addition, GSO has agreed to exchange $15M worth of Hovnanian senior notes for 3.86M Class A shares.
