Friday, June 14, 12:30 PM Standard Pacific (SPF +2.2%) says it's completed the acquisition of select homebuilding assets from Centerline Homes homebuilding affiliates.

Wednesday, June 5, 3:47 PM Standard Pacific (SPF +1%) gets a lift from BAML's Michael Roxland, who initiated coverage today with a Buy and an $11 price target. Roxland says the homebuilder's focus on move-up and luxury homebuyers and long land position in land constrained markets give it a competitive advantage. Additionally, its healthy order growth versus its peers, growing end markets, and geographic exposure should generate industry leading gross margins, which should expand as the company grows its community count.

Wednesday, May 8, 3:16 PM The bull story on the homebuilders (XHB) still has years to play out, says Steve Eisman, speaking at Ira Sohn under the topic, "Housing: U.S. vs. Canada." He's especially bullish on the land-rich homebuilders - LEN, PHM, SPF - as there's not enough inventory to support demand and land prices will be heading higher, but the purest land play might be Forestar Group (FOR +5.5%), worth $30/share in his opinion.

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]

Friday, March 15, 4:38 PM Homebuilder stocks are moving away from trading on the macro news and beginning to trade more on company-specific fundamentals, according to Wells Fargo. While most homebuilder shares have outperformed the S&P 500 over the last twelve months, different patterns are starting to emerge. Performance within the sector is beginning to fragment. Over the last week for example, half of the builders the firm follows outperformed while half underperformed. Similarly over the last month, only 5 of the 12 outperformed. 7 Comments [U.S. Economy]
