Is California's 10% rent cap enough to stop price-gouging?

California Governor Gavin Newsom extends rent price-gouging protections as ongoing wildfires displace Californians. The Altman Brothers Team co-founder Josh Altman joins Wealth with Brad Smith to check in on the Southern California real estate market in the aftermath of the devastating blazes. Altman says the anti-price-gouging efforts may fall short: "Nothing's going to stop somebody from [price-gouging] in the long run. Yeah, of course, they may get in trouble. They may have been in a situation where they're going to have to pay back the difference of where they were listed at compared to where they are listed at now when the people move in. But the issue is you put a house on the market, and it's a good lease or an apartment, and it's a good lease, you're still going to get inundated with 50 lease applications." "These people are willing to pay for it at the moment because what is their other option? A lot of them have insurance that are paying for it, which is why the homeowner or landlord that is leasing out the house thinks that it's not a big deal because the insurance is paying for it, so it's yet to be seen," he adds.

Why this overlooked sector is poised for long-term gains

Investors may be overlooking the long-term growth opportunities of the healthcare sector. JPMorgan Asset Management global market strategist Stephanie Aliaga sits down with Seana Smith and Brad Smith on Morning Brief to discuss her bullish outlook for the health care sector (XLV). The strategist compares the healthcare sector's positioning to the financial sector's recent gains. "This week posted really strong reports, particularly in profitability. That's a part of the market on financials that is benefiting from a lot of the kind of macro tailwinds on deregulation, but also a soft landing," she says. "I think some similar things can be said for healthcare." "Healthcare is massively underperformed. I think a big theme for us this year when rebalancing portfolios is looking where expectations are relative to the kind of potential and earnings delivery expected," Aliaga says, adding that healthcare is an "industry that is ripe for innovation, ripe for M&A and partnerships this coming year." She notes that medtech and pharma are two particular areas in healthcare that are positioned to benefit "ahead of the upcoming patent cycle." With Trump returning to the White House, Aliaga notes that there is "a lot of uncertainty." The strategist adds, "I think there is absolutely bipartisan support for lowering the drug prices, but then you also have to balance that with the incentives that these companies have: to continue to push the bar forward when it comes to innovation."

Shelter inflation signals moderation as home prices 'calm down'

December's Consumer Price Index (CPI) print revealed that shelter inflation increased 0.3% month-over-month and 4.6% annually, showing a slight cooling from the previous month. Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) Vice President of Research and Analysis Andy Walden shares his insights on housing market trends with Catalysts. Walden sees parallels between the CPI shelter data and broader home price trends: "You are seeing home price growth calm down." Looking ahead to 2025, Walden emphasizes that housing market growth will largely depend on interest rates and "what that does for demand." Current trends suggest home price growth ticked up in December 2024 and will moderate to around 3% in early 2025. For a full analysis of how Federal Reserve policy could impact housing markets and regional forecasts, watch Walden's full interview above.

Mortgage rates could fall to 5.8% by year's end: Serhant agent

Serhant Team Lead and Licensed Real Estate Agent Sean McPeak joins Wealth to discuss the housing market and share advice for home shoppers. McPeak forecasts mortgage rates dropping below 6% in the coming year, with the 30-year fixed rate likely reaching 5.8%. He notes that this decrease depends on the Federal Reserve continuing its interest rate-cutting cycle and proper market risk pricing. "Better conditions for buyers" are emerging across the market, McPeak explains, with cooling prices in various states and increasing inventory in urban and mid-country regions. "I do think conditions have improved; however, in markets like New York City, where there is a lot of regulation and a very high cost of labor, we are seeing less supply come into the market, which is also kind of keeping prices propped up." For prospective homebuyers, McPeak recommends targeting properties that have been listed for extended periods and limiting house tours to six per day, noting that "after a long day of shopping for houses, it all kinds of blends together." He also suggests maintaining a reference file for preferred properties. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Wealth here.

ETFs to watch for in next wave of AI growth in 2025

ETF inflows reached record inflows of $1 trillion in 2024, with many on Wall Street expecting this trend to continue well into 2025. Strategas Securities ETF and technical strategist Todd Sohn appears on Catalysts to highlight the AI trade as a key theme for ETF investing. “We like ETFs because they spread around the bets... As long as the ETF is not too overweight, one or two single names, you're going to get the benefit of whoever emerges from that pack," Sohn tells Seana Smith and Madison Mills.  Sohn underlines the VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NLR) as one of his preferred picks as nuclear energy providers become a key asset in expanding artificial intelligence infrastructures. "Single stock ETFs are a boom for issuers because of the high fees involved. They are trading vehicles for highly trained professionals who have a high conviction," Sohn explains. In the video above, Sohn discusses the optimism surrounding ETF inflows projected for 2025 while noting the risks expected for markets.

CBRE transaction data points to CRE recovery after 2-Year slump

CBRE Group (CBRE) reported the first increase in real estate transaction volume in over two years during the third quarter of 2024. Janus Henderson Investors portfolio manager of global real estate Gregory Kuhl joins Catalysts to analyze the implications of this transaction data for the broader commercial real estate sector. According to Kuhl, transaction data reveals a sharp decline throughout 2022 and 2023, followed by a recovery in 2024. He explains that higher interest rates necessitated a commercial real estate market revaluation, stating, "That basically has taken place over the last 2 years." With buyers and sellers now reaching consensus on price levels conducive to transactions, Kuhl anticipates further improvement in the first quarter of 2025. For a full analysis of how Kuhl believes interest rates will influence commercial real estate sector performance in 2025, viewers can watch the full video above.

Housing stalemate: Do sellers have to lower their expectations?

Redfin chief economist Daryl Fairweather joins Asking for a Trend to explain that while an increase in available home listings appears helpful to prospective homebuyers, these homes may be sitting on the market longer due to overpricing and various other realty obstacles. Fairweather discusses the "stalemate" situation where homeowners feel hesitant to lower their asking prices because they’re holding onto low mortgage rates. "A lot of homeowners record low mortgage rates, and they're not really willing to budge on price because they feel like it's not worth it for them to sell and then have to buy again if they're not getting a high enough price on the home that they currently have," Fairweather explains. Fairweather says the stalemate is going to have to "resolve somehow," mentioning homeowners lowering their price or delisting as possible answers. She goes on to comment on the trajectory of mortgage rates in the latter half of 2025, believing they will "stay flat" while exhibiting volatility that is to be expected.

Expect another 'sluggish' housing market in 2025: Broker's advice

Challenge conditions for the US housing market could be staying around longer than expected in 2025. Sotheby's International Realty Global Real Estate Advisor Jenna Stauffer appears on Wealth with Brad Smith to provide tips for homebuyers attempting to navigate a sluggish market. Stauffer notes that the housing market saw affordability and inventory constraints, which she believes will stick around this year and lead to downward pressure on home prices. Her advice for home buyers is to stay persistent, noting sellers are still pricing homes based on past market conditions. "There are some sellers that still have priced their homes according to, maybe, prices we were seeing more back in 2022," Stauffer explains. "And now they're going to have to adjust their expectations. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Wealth here. This post was written by Josh Lynch

US housing market: The factors that could set up a 2025 comeback

US pending home sales rose 2.2% in November, a hopeful sign the housing market could see some recovery in 2025 after a tumultuous 2024 marred by elevated mortgage rates. HousingWire lead analyst Logan Mohtashami joins Madison Mills to talk about key drivers for improvement in 2025, including a slowing economy and rising unemployment rates that could create an opportunity for mortgage rates to cool. “The one positive for 2025... is that mortgage spreads have gotten better, too, so you don’t need too much help from the ten-year yield," Mohtashami says. "If rates just get towards 6%, you could get demand growth easily in 2025," he adds. Read up on Yahoo Finance senior housing reporter Claire Boston's coverage of the latest home sales data.
