Analyst Note

| Brian Bernard |

Through the first four months of 2023 (typically viewed as the “spring selling season” for homebuilders) new home sales significantly outperformed existing home sales. Indeed, April year-to-date new home sales declined roughly 10% year over year compared to over a 26% decline for existing home sales. New home sales improved sequentially during the first four months of the year, and April sales increased 11% year over year, albeit on an easy prior-year comparison (April 2022 new sales were down 24% year over year).

Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns. Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.

High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.
