Pending Home Sales Inch Back 0.3% in December

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Despite dropping slightly in the last month of 2020, the latest pending home sales registered as the highest ever recorded in the month of December, according to the National Association of Realtors®. The decrease marks the fourth consecutive month of month-over-month declines. While contract transactions fell in one of the four major U.S. regions, activity climbed or remained flat in the three other areas. Compared to a year ago, all…

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Despite dropping slightly in the last month of 2020, the latest pending home sales registered as the highest ever recorded in the month of December, according to the National Association of Realtors®. The decrease marks the fourth consecutive month of month-over-month declines. While contract transactions fell in one of the four major U.S. regions, activity climbed or remained flat in the three other areas. Compared to a year ago, all four regions witnessed double-digit gains in pending home sales transactions.

The Pending Home Sales Index (PHSI),*www.nar.realtor/pending-home-sales, a forward-looking indicator of home sales based on contract signings, waned 0.3% to 125.5 in December. Year-over-year, contract signings jumped 21.4%. An index of 100 is equal to the level of contract activity in 2001.

«Pending home sales contracts have dipped during recent months, but I would attribute that to having too few homes for sale,» said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist. «There is a high demand for housing and a great number of would-be buyers, and therefore sales should rise with more new listings.»

«This elevated demand without a significant boost in supply has caused home prices to increase and we can expect further upward pressure on prices for the foreseeable future,» Yun said.

Yun continues to project that 2021 will bring about strong economic growth, supported by low mortgage rates and fiscal stimulus, which in turn will bolster existing-home sales.

«I expect the 30-year fixed mortgage rate to average 3%, with the Federal Reserve refraining from any rate increases this year,» he said.

Yun added that, with rates to remain low, existing-homes sales are likely to reach 6.49 million, which would be a 15% increase from 5.64 million in 2020. «There will also be slower home price appreciation, likely 6.6%, as increased confidence from homebuilders will ultimately lead to an increase in housing starts.»

December Pending Home Sales Regional Breakdown
The Northeast PHSI rose 3.1% to 112.0 in December, a 22.1% increase from a year ago. In the Midwest, the index fell 3.6% to 111.7 last month, up 13.9% from December 2019.

Pending home sales in the South increased 0.1% to an index of 150.6 in December, up 26.6% from December 2019. The index in the West was unchanged in December, remaining at 111.3, which is up 18.9% from a year ago.

Realtor.com®‘s Housing Market Recovery Index, which reveals metro areas where the market has recovered or even exceeded prior trends, showed Portland, Ore.; Las Vegas, Nev.; Denver, Colo.; Los Angeles, Calif.; and Boston, Mass., had enjoyed the most significant recovery as of January 16.

The National Association of Realtors® is America’s largest trade association, representing more than 1.4 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

*The Pending Home Sales Index is a leading indicator for the housing sector, based on pending sales of existing homes. A sale is listed as pending when the contract has been signed but the transaction has not closed, though the sale usually is finalized within one or two months of signing.
The index is based on a large national sample, typically representing about 20% of transactions for existing-home sales. In developing the model for the index, it was demonstrated that the level of monthly sales-contract activity parallels the level of closed existing-home sales in the following two months.
An index of 100 is equal to the average level of contract activity during 2001, which was the first year to be examined. By coincidence, the volume of existing-home sales in 2001 fell within the range of 5.0 to 5.5 million, which is considered normal for the current U.S. population.

NOTE: Existing-Home Sales for January will be reported February 19. The next Pending Home Sales Index will be February 25; all release times are 10:00 a.m. ET.

Federal Program’s Quick Response Helps U.S. Manufacturers Supply Critical PPE and Other Domestic Products

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The CARES Act recognized the potential of manufacturers to implement creative strategies to adapt and respond to the pandemic and provided $50 million for the 51 MEP Centers in every state and Puerto Rico to assist manufacturers in a wide variety of ways.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The CARES Act recognized the potential of manufacturers to implement creative strategies to adapt and respond to the pandemic and provided $50 million for the 51 MEP Centers in every state and Puerto Rico to assist manufacturers in a wide variety of ways. These efforts include helping firms retool production systems, identify new supply chains, integrate new technologies, deliver safety training, and enhance cybersecurity protection.

A team at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, led by CURS Interim Director Dr. Nichola Lowe, Professor of City and Regional Planning, documented the wide range of MEP Center responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their report is based on the team’s research conducted during the fall of 2020

Key findings include:

  • 94,681 manufacturers contacted by MEP Centers as reported June 30 through September 30, 2020
  • 8,966 manufacturing client projects completed by MEP Centers as reported June 30 through September 30, 2020
  • MEP Centers in 48 states provided new or expanded consulting services or performed needs surveys
  • MEP Centers in 42 states provided product and/or supplier matching services
  • MEP Centers in 31 states created return-to-work guides
  • MEP Centers in 29 states provided assistance with retooling to produce PPE
  • MEP Centers in 13 states assisted manufacturers with PPE product testing and development

«MEP Centers have expanded far beyond process-oriented client support, demonstrating their ability to also help firms retain and redirect workforce talent, design innovative products and develop emergency response strategies that will be helpful for future pandemics and natural disasters. Scaling these efforts further will ensure our national economic recovery is driven by manufacturing innovation and the growth of high-paying, quality jobs,» said Dr. Nichola Lowe.

The report contains 51 profiles, one for each state and Puerto Rico. Each profile is 1-2 pages long and outlines the MEP Center’s pandemic-related assistance to their state’s manufacturers in areas such as training, layoff aversion, domestic sourcing and technology needs. The report includes a detailed chart that shows the types of pandemic-related assistance done by each state’s MEP Center.

«MEP Centers used the opportunities afforded by CARES Act funding to respond to both shorter-term challenges related to COVID-19, such as PPE retooling assistance and conducting needs assessments, as well as long-term opportunities that will benefit manufacturers long after the pandemic is over. In the short-term, MEP Centers have shown innovation and an ability to lean on nonconventional partners to meet common goals,» shared Olivia Raines, Project Lead at the Center for Urban and Regional Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

ALYI Announces First Rideshare Electric Motorcycles Scheduled To Go Into Service By July

DALLAS, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Alternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC: ALYI) today announced finalizing plans for its first rideshare electric motorcycles to go into service by July of this year. ALYI has an order to deliver 2000 electric motorcycles in Kenya to be deployed into the motorcycle taxi (boda) market. The first delivery schedule for July is intended to support a first phase, pilot rollout of the rideshare service.

DALLAS, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Alternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC: ALYI) today announced finalizing plans for its first rideshare electric motorcycles to go into service by July of this year. ALYI has an order to deliver 2000 electric motorcycles in Kenya to be deployed into the motorcycle taxi (boda) market. The first delivery schedule for July is intended to support a first phase, pilot rollout of the rideshare service.

ALYI’s Revolt Electric Motorcycle Program is only a small part of the company’s comprehensive strategy to build a far-reaching electric vehicle ecosystem. 

The success of any electric vehicle will depend on the simultaneous availability of an entire network of solutions necessary to support the electric vehicle. 

For example, the electric vehicle support network ranges from the availability of power, to charging stations where power can be accessed, to long-range batteries to make electric vehicles efficient modes of transportation, to connectivity so software updates for motor synchronization and battery optimization applications can be continuously updated along with other electric vehicle user support applications.

ALYI’s primary business focus is on its electric vehicle ecosystem strategy out of which electric vehicles will be just one component. 

ALYI is building its electric vehicle ecosystem in a region with one of the lowest per capita transportation ratios in the world, Sub Saharan Africa.  

To both attract industry leading talent to collaborate in ALYI’s electric vehicle ecosystem, and to provide an opportunity to prove innovations coming out of the electric vehicle ecosystem, ALYI is launching an annual electric vehicle race in partnership with a brand name racing organization. The annual race event will be hosted simultaneously with an electric mobility symposium and expo.

ALYI is setting itself apart from the rest of the electric vehicle industry not only through its electric vehicle ecosystem strategy, but also through its commitment to democratize the electric vehicle ecosystem.

ALYI’s financing partner and electric vehicle ecosystem collaborator, RevoltTOKEN, has already provided key funding to advance ALYI’s business plan to its current stage. RevoltTOKEN plans to democratize the ALYI electric vehicle ecosystem through the introduction of a dedicated cryptocurrency that will offer holders a participation opportunity in the ecosystem. RevoltTOKEN, the business entity, plans to offer RevoltTOKENs, a cryptocurrency, through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO).

Next week, we plan to publish a more detailed presentation on our comprehensive electric vehicle ecosystem strategy. Starting now, we anticipate beginning to announce electric vehicle collaboration partnerships.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Arctech Solar, a leading solar tracking, racking and BIPV systems provider, has recently released a white paper entitled «The Next Generation of Artificial Intelligence Solar Tracking Solutions» at an online global launch event. The white paper details major upgrades for its tracking solution that can improve power generation of solar power plants by up to 7%, thereby boosting returns for power plant owners and investors.

Co-authored by Arctech’s CTO Bruce Wang and Mika Jovanović, the solar technology team leader of DNV·GL, the white paper explores the AI-powered solar tracking solutions that are capable of overcoming the problem of energy production losses suffered by solar power plants due to challenging weather conditions, ubiquitous terrain undulation and inevitable variability in site construction, while ensuring a reliable increase in energy yield throughout the life cycle of PV power plants.

According to the white paper, Arctech’s solar tracking solution integrates four strategies: the tracking control strategy on a real terrain, the cloud strategy based on real-time weather data, the bifacial strategy for bifacial modules and trackers and the control strategy based on sharing parameters with inverters.

«Data in the white paper are obtained from simulation and field verification by Arctech Solar. The third-party certification body, DNV·GL, has confirmed the reliability of the published data, and other well-known certification organizations such as TUV Rheinland, TUV Süd and the China General Certification Center also support the assessment report from DNV·GL,» said Bruce Wang, Arctech’s CTO.

As DNV·GL states in its assessment report, the accredited certification body believes the estimates of Arctech Solar are consistent with DNV·GL’s power generation simulation results and previous experience.

Besides, the white paper also offers an overview of Arctech’s value-added technical solutions which include an optimized AI tracking algorithm, cleaning robots and a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.

«Arctech is always trying to help customers achieve success with best-in-class products and services,» said Guy Rong, President of Arctech’s Global Business. «We will continue to focus on lowering LCOE, enhancing profits for customers, and helping them make economically unviable projects in the past feasible now through technological innovation. Meanwhile, we will ensure the life cycle security and power generation gains for solar PV power plants. At Arctech, we believe customer’s success is Arctech’s success!»

Comerica Bank’s Texas Index Improved Again

DALLAS, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Comerica Bank’s Texas Economic Activity Index increased in November to 123.8. November’s index reading was 30 percent above the index historical low of 95.5. The index averaged 139.7 points for all of 2019, 4.4 points above the average for 2018. October’s index reading was 121.1.

DALLAS, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Comerica Bank’s Texas Economic Activity Index increased in November to 123.8. November’s index reading was 30 percent above the index historical low of 95.5. The index averaged 139.7 points for all of 2019, 4.4 points above the average for 2018. October’s index reading was 121.1.

Our Texas Economic Activity Index improved for the fifth consecutive month in November, as oil prices increased. Eight out of nine sub-indexes were up for the month, including nonfarm employment, unemployment insurance claims (inverted), housing starts, house prices, industrial electricity demand, drilling rig count, total state trade and state sales tax revenue. The only declining sub-index was hotel occupancy, which has been subdued since last March. Labor market conditions are a key feature of state economies. Texas continues to outperform the U.S. At the end of 2020, total nonfarm employment in Texas was down 3.3 percent from a year earlier, reflecting the drag from the coronavirus pandemic, while the U.S. as a whole was down 6.2 percent. Moreover, Texas showed a strong net gain of 64,200 payroll jobs in December, while the U.S. posted a net loss of 140,000. Texas still posted a slightly higher unemployment rate at year end than the U.S average, 7.2 percent for Texas compared with 6.7 percent for the U.S. Tightening global commodity prices works in favor of the Texas economy, supporting the drilling rig count and all manner of oil field production and servicing activity. An ongoing risk for Texas is the negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic on both domestic and international air travel, as two major airlines are headquartered in North Texas. The emergence of new strains of the coronavirus is already leading to restrictions in international travel.

The Texas Economic Activity Index consists of nine variables, as follows: nonfarm payroll employment, continuing claims for unemployment insurance, housing starts, house price index, industrial electricity sales, Texas rotary rig count, total trade, hotel occupancy and sales tax revenue. All data are seasonally adjusted. Nominal values have been converted to constant dollar values. Total index levels are expressed in terms of three-month moving averages.

Comerica Incorporated (NYSE: CMA) is a financial services company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and strategically aligned by three business segments: The Commercial Bank, The Retail Bank, and Wealth Management. Comerica focuses on relationships, and helping people and businesses be successful. In addition to Texas, Comerica Bank locations can be found in Arizona, California, Florida and Michigan, with select businesses operating in several other states, as well as in Canada and Mexico. Comerica reported total assets of $88 billion as of Dec. 31, 2020.

Seed to Style’s products start at the source: cultivating non-GMO seeds, free of harmful toxic inputs, for a truly regenerative future—offering high quality, super soft, and accessible organic clothing.

This new brand launch will debut live on January 29th, with a one-hour show exclusively on QVC and on QVC.com, while supporting ethical fashion inclusivity—with sizes ranging from XXS-3X. As 68% of American women are a size 14 or above, Seed to Style will provide a wider mainstream audience with the option to #dressorganically—with no compromise in value OR values.

«As a creative visionary, entrepreneur, mother and consumer, I believe that products should give people a way to buy what they love and seek, while ALSO making a positive difference to human and planetary wellness, farmer and worker welfare, and future generations,» states Seed to Style Founder and CEO, and QVC on-air guest, Marci Zaroff.

An ECOlifestyle pioneer, innovator and authority, Marci adds, «There is a misconception that style and sustainability are mutually exclusive, but this is not true. With a seed representing life, we shouldn’t have to settle for better-designed clothes if they result in harm to humanity or our environment. Seed to Style is not about sacrifice; it’s about getting more—more value, more beauty, more health, more joy. If we can experience life—with gorgeous responsible fashion that’s protecting our bodies and regenerating our planet—that is the ultimate win.»

As Marci reveals as the premise of her book «ECOrenaissance: Co-creating a Stylish, Sexy and Sustainable World» (Simon & Schuster), thru the lens of design, we can affect positive change—we can look good, feel good, AND do good in the world. With a deep passion and commitment to both climate action and social justice, the Seed to Style family is driven to elevate all who touch their products, on every level. From natural disasters to the global Covid pandemic, we are all longing for a new chapter—a rebirth of humanity, built on the realization that we are all a part of a shared, collective ecosystem—together.

The new Seed to Style GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified organic apparel brand first and foremost focuses on fabulous fashion—from cozy knit cardigans and cropped poncho sweaters, to uber soft jersey tops and ombre lounge sets, to printed sweatshirt dresses and pullover hoodies, to twill utility pants, shirts and more. Seed to Style promises to excite and delight even the most discerning fashionistas with its timely must-have styles—including its special long-sleeve organic jersey top with thumbholes in six stunning colors and prints, which QVC is featuring as a January 29th, 24-hour on-air «Big Deal®.»

«QVC’s long-standing commitment to doing business the right way includes protecting the environment and championing a more sustainable way to retail. When Marci Zaroff and her team came to us with the idea of an all-organic apparel line, we jumped at the opportunity,» said Rachel Ungaro, GMM and VP of Apparel for QVC and HSN. «Seed to Style brings to life our shared commitment to both style and sustainability and we’re proud to share it with our customer.»
