Market Commentary

One person’s peak is another’s trough

Or, in Builders FirstSource’s case, when one door closes, another window opens. Builders FirstSource is the largest building supply company in the U.S., headquartered in Dallas, Texas. It serves professional home builders, subcontractors, and large and small remodelers. With the prospect of reaching the peak in mortgage rates, the housing market may have seen the bottom. Equally important is that mortgage rates are still very much in line with the longer history, and with a recession along the horizon, it’s not too much to expect even lower rates from here. Several weeks ago, Builders FirstSource (BLDR) reported 1Q23 earnings results that might be the start of the turnaround for the sector. Despite a decrease in sales of 31.6% to $3.9 billion, gross profit margin increased by 300 basis points to 35.3%.
