全美建商信心指數(shù)二月現(xiàn)小幅下跌
U.S. homebuilders say sales prospects and buyer traffic fell slightly this month.
二月,美國新建住宅市場銷售前景和買家流量出現(xiàn)小幅回落。
The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo builder sentiment index released Tuesday slipped to 55 in February from 57 in January.
全美住宅建筑商協(xié)會/富國建筑商信心指數(shù)上周二發(fā)布數(shù)據(jù)顯示:二月的信心指數(shù)從一月的57跌到了55。
Despite the decline, builders remain relatively optimistic a month before the start of the spring buying season. Readings above 50 indicate that more builders view sales conditions as positive rather than poor. Lower mortgage rates, coupled with job gains over the past year, point to stronger sales.
盡管指數(shù)有輕微下降,許多建商在春季銷售旺季開始前一個月對市場仍持樂觀態(tài)度。該指數(shù)高于50也表明了這種明朗的市場預(yù)期。低房貸率,高就業(yè)率,都指向了未來更高的銷售額。
Builders' outlook for current sales conditions and prospective buyer traffic slipped in February, while the expected sales conditions over the next six months held steady.
二月份建商對市場的信心有所回落,但是他們對未來6個月的市場預(yù)期依舊明朗。
The latest reading is consistent with the NAHB's forecast for the U.S. housing market to continue to improve at a gradual pace this year. Buyer traffic may have been blunted in February because of winter storms, the NAHB said.
最新資料與NAHB的推測基本一致——未來一年美國的住宅市場會以穩(wěn)健上升的步伐前進。二月份買家流量下滑可能與今年冬季特別惡劣的氣候有關(guān)。
After sluggish real estate sales for much of 2014, Americans snapped up newly built homes at a faster pace in December, a promising sign as warmer months tend to draw out buyers and sales begin to peak heading into summer.
全美樓市在2014年基本擺脫了低迷狀態(tài),12月份,出現(xiàn)了一股搶購新房的熱潮,市場正釋放出積極信號——今年夏天樓市交易很可能會進入一個新的波峰。
Sales of new homes surged 11.6 percent in December to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 481,000.
按照一季度房屋總銷量48.1萬套計算,新房銷量在12月份激增了11.6個百分點。
Only 435,000 new homes were bought last year, a modest 1.2 per cent improvement from 2013. That is well below a pace of roughly 700,000 new homes selling in the 1990s.
去年,一共只售出了43.5萬套新房,比2013年同比增長了1.2個百分點,比起90年代年平均出售70萬套則要低上許多。
While home sales are slated to rise this year, economists doubt that they will return their historic pace as builders still seem chastened by the 2007 housing crash that triggered the worst recession in 80 years.
今年房屋銷量上漲預(yù)期明顯,可經(jīng)濟學家們還是疑慮他們是否會重回歷史峰值,因為許多建商仍對2007年那次最嚴重的次貸危機心有余悸。
When builder sentiment was at similar levels in 2006, housing starts were 60 percent higher, said Joshua Shapiro, chief economist at MFR, a forecasting firm.
MFR預(yù)測公司首席經(jīng)濟學家Joshua Shapiro認為,如果要達到2006年的信心指數(shù),房屋開工率至少要達到60%以上。
”There remains a big disconnect between what homebuilders are saying and what they are actually doing," Shapiro said.
“大部分建商言行不一,”Shapiro 說。
