We did find the housing inventory numbers increased, which is key. We are looking at the 10.3 month supply compared to 9.7 in December.

New home prices is a different picture because the home builders are biting the bullet here. The leading home price index suggests that, in effect, although that may be a problem, there is an interesting optic we see at the end that makes us wonder whether new home practices might actually stabilize as wee see within the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index report.
