  • Wednesday:  Pending Home Sales for  June – which is the lead indicator for Existing Sales (90% of the housing market) - should be strong from a rate-of-change perspective given the recent trend and easy comp.  Consensus is expecting +11% year-over-year growth and another new post-crisis high in activity.  We’d view that expectation as ballpark correct.
