This figure measures numbers of recently built residential housing with a committed sale for the month. This ostensibly narrow set of data has a ripple effect throughout the economy: as well as providing a direct guide to housing market trends and to how well companies in the building sector are likely to be doing, the construction of a new home generates more building jobs (the creation of jobs always implies an increase in household spending power and therefore is generally considered beneficial for the economy), revenues for the construction company and estate agent. One would also expect the new home buyer to be making a number of consumer purchases of furniture and household appliances (in other words, each new home sale leads to an associated increase in household spending). To conclude, the new home sales figure directly influences stock, bond and commodity prices, by virtue of the wide-ranging boost to the economy that new homes generate. |
