Home sales fell again in September as surging mortgage rates, rising prices discouraged homebuyers_我的网站

A |     LOS ANGELES -- Sales of previously occupied U.S. homes fell for the fourth month in a row in September, held back by surging mortgage rates and a thin supply of properties on the market.Existing home sales fell 2% last month from August to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.96 million, the National Association of Realtors said Thursday. That’s just above the 3.9 million unit pace that economists were expecting, according to FactSet.Sales sank 15.4% compared with the same month last year and are down 21% through the first nine months of the year versus the same period in 2022.Despite the housing market slump, home prices kept climbing versus a year ago. The national median sales price rose 2.8% from September last year to $394,300. It slipped 3.1% from August.“Clearly, the story of limited inventory and rising and rising mortgage rates continues to hinder the home sales market,” said Lawrence Yun, the NAR’s chief economist.The weekly average rate on a 30-year mortgage moved above 7% in August, when many of the home sales that were finalized in September would have gone under contract. It has remained above that threshold since, surging last week to 7.57%, the highest level since 2000, according to mortgage buyer Freddie Mac.High rates can add hundreds of dollars a month in costs for borrowers, limiting how much they can afford in a market already out of reach for many Americans. They also discourage homeowners who locked in rock-bottom rates two years ago from selling.While surging mortgage rates have shut out many prospective buyers, a chronic shortage of homes for sale continues to keep the market competitive, especially for the most affordable homes.Homes sold last month typically within just 21 days after hitting the market, and about 26% of homes sold for more than their list price, the NAR said.All told, there were 1.13 million homes on the market by the end of last month, up 2.7% from August, but down 8.1% from September last year, the NAR said. That amounts to just a 3.4-month supply, going by the current sales pace. In a more balanced market between buyers and sellers, there is a 4- to 5-month supply.。    Unit 8200, a secretive IDF intelligence formation responsible for collecting signal intelligence, has claimed to have helped thwart an attempted attack on the US power network.,In a rare briefing in Tel Aviv University on Wednesday, Unit 8200 deputy director, known only as ‘Colonel U’, said that a mysterious “adversary” that had “attacked Israel” using cyber means, and that in the process of stopping the attack, “we also found that they were attempting to target US power plants as well.”,“This was the first indication of this attack. It enabled preventing this threat, through tight collaboration with our fantastic American partners,” Colonel U said.,The officer did not specify when the reported attack took place, who was responsible, or any other information about the purported incident. He recalled however than another “adversary,” Iran, had similarly “attack water facilities in Israel,” and that that threat had also been “mitigated” before it could cause any damage. Israeli and US media had reported on the attempted attack on the Jewish State’s water utilities in May 2020.,“Like it or not, we work in quite a tough neighborhood, this leads to ongoing high friction in a dynamic and intense environment. We have new challenges each day. When we succeed we save lives. When we fail this becomes a major problem for our nation,” Colonel U said.,Israel Reportedly Suspects Iranian Cyberattack Triggered False Siren Alerts on Sunday 21 June, 04:08 GMT,Unit 8200 members received state awards for their reported involvement in a 2020 attack on Iranian port infrastructure, and former employees of the force were implicated in last year’s Pegasus spy scandal –involving the installation of military-grade zero-click spyware on the phones of tens of thousands of VIPs, including senior government officials, business executives, activists and journalists.,Israel and Iran have waged a long-running covert cyberwar going back at least to the 2010 Stuxnet attack on Iranian nuclear installations, including the Natanz uranium enrichment plant and its nuclear centrifuges. The two countries have subsequently accused one another of targeting a range of virtual and physical infrastructure, from government websites and servers to real-world facilities like gas stations, ports, utilities, and power plants.,Last week, Israel accused Iranian hackers of triggering false siren alerts in Eilat and Jerusalem by accessing and activating the IDF Home Front Command’s alert system.,In March, Israeli media reported that the country experienced its “largest-ever cyberattack” involving the targeting of Israeli government websites shortly after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps cyber command announced that it had stopped a cyber sabotage attempt against the Fordow nuclear enrichment facility.,Last October, Israeli officials reported that a suspected Iranian hacking group known as ‘Moses Staff’ had breached 165 Israeli servers and hundreds of websites, amassing 11 terabytes of sensitive data, including the personal information of Defense Minister Benny Gantz and military officials, IDF operational planning maps, and correspondence. The same month, Tehran accused the “Zionist regime” and its allies of a massive hack attack which temporarily crippled Iran’s entire gas station network.,IDF, US Cyber Units Hold Mysterious Joint Drills to Ensure ‘Cyber Network Superiority’19 December 2021, 13:05 GMT。
