D.R. Horton largest U.S. homebuilder earnings drop 50%

by John Wake on November 15, 2006

The most important point for me in this article;

In the September quarter, we reduced our total homebuilding inventory by $662 million, and we reduced our number of homes under construction by approximately 11,000 homes (a 27% reduction)

The market needs a lot more of the same from U.S. homebuilders to bring down the inventory of resale homes.

UPDATE: Here’s another article on the subject.
