Probability

62%

US housing starts collapsed 15.4% to 1.177M (SAAR) in May 2026, a 6-year low well below the 1.43M market forecast. For June 2026, Fannie Mae (1.34M annual average) and Forisk project a partial rebound. The 1.25M threshold represents only a +6.2% bounce from May — still well below the annual average. Lower mortgage rates (Fed funds 3.50–3.75%) and typical June seasonal support a partial recovery. Base rate for >1.25M is ~60–65% given the expected rebound dynamic.
