According to the latest annual "Presidents Economic Report" from the White House Council of Economic Advisers, "If single-family home construction and the growth in the stock of such homes had not declined significantly since 2008, but had continued at their historical pace, there would be 10 million or more single-family homes available today." Freddie Mac, a government-controlled company, stated in November 2024 that based on demand driven by population growth, the U.S. housing supply gap is 3.7 million units. The National Association of Realtors, in June 2021, estimated the housing gap at 5.5 million units based on trends over the past 20 years compared to the construction rate between 1968 and 2000. This report comes as policymakers in Washington are trying to demonstrate to voters that they are taking action on high housing prices. High housing costs are a key issue in the upcoming midterm elections, with affordability expected to be a central theme.

Price Analysis of the US Dollar Index: DXY Retreats from 104.00, Rising Wedge Anticipated

During Thursday's Asian session, the US Dollar Index (DXY) fails to continue the previous two days' upward momentum, trading on the defensive around 103.95.

 

In doing so, the dollar index remains near the 20-year high reached earlier in the week, but for the first time in three days, the daily decline is recorded.

 

In addition to highlighting a 12-day-old rising wedge bearish pattern surrounding the multi-day top, the DXY's most recent decline also reveals a multi-day top-adjacent rising wedge formation. The slow RSI also highlights the significance of the chart pattern.

 

However, a decisive breach below 102.90 is required to validate the potential decline to 101.30.

 

During the fall, the 100-SMA and monthly low between 102.65 and 102.35 will serve as intermediate stops.

 

Until the quote continues below the indicated wedge's resistance line, approximately 104.30 as of press time, a recovery appears elusive.

 

After that, a slow climb to the September 2002 high of 109.80 cannot be ruled out.
