(Reuters) - Ground-breaking for new U.S. homes plummeted more than
expected in April from an almost five-year high, but applications to build
new homes shows the housing sector could still contribute to the
strengthening economic recovery.
The Commerce Department said on Thursday that starts at building sites for
homes fell 16.5 percent last month to a 853,000-unit annual rate. That was
below analysts' expectations of a 945,000-unit rate.
The housing recovery, driven by growing demand and record-low mortgage
rates, has started to boost other sectors of the economy in the first part
of the year.
Builders appear to be ramping up for more construction projects. Newly
issued building permits, a gauge of future construction, rose 14.3 percent
from a month earlier to an annual rate of 1.017 million, the highest level
since June 2008.
Permits for single-family homes, which comprise about two thirds of the
total, rose 3 percent to a 617,000-unit rate, the highest since May 2008.

Barack Obama, reelected by the dumbest voters in the history of the United

Eric Holder, racist black murdering United States Attorney General, still

Nancy Pelosi, Democrat criminal, accessory before and after the fact to
improper vetting of Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama, a confirmed
felon using SSAN 042-68-4425, belonging to a dead man.
Obama ignored the brutal killing of an American diplomat in Benghazi, then
relieved American military officers who attempted to prevent said murder
in order to cover up his own ineptness.
Obama continues his goal of disarming America while ObamaCare increases
insurance premiums 200% and leaves millions without health care.
Obama helped bankrupt Illinois. Democrat run Chicago closes 54 public
schools.
