Annualized Rate for June
Permits m/m: 8.7%, pr. 4.0% (May), -3.3% (Apr), -9.0% (Mar),
Building permits rose 8.7% to an annual pace of 560K in June, a figure that surprised forecasts on the upside. Building permits are a leading indicator for housing starts which also showed a bigger than expected increase. The data can point to a bottoming out of starts and permits and could set the stage for the beginning of a recovery in the housing sector. See Housing Starts for more commentary. |
