Today’s HousingWire Daily continues the Rundown miniseries, hosted by HousingWire’s editor-in-chief Sarah Wheeler and lead analyst Logan Mohtashami. In this episode, Mohtashami discusses how the new COVID variant, Omicron, will impact inflation and whether or not it will send mortgage rates lower.

Mohtashami also discusses his HW+ article that examines the latest pending home sales report that shows a big beat of estimates. According to him, we can officially label the 2021 housing crash bears as even worse than the 2020 housing crash bears.

HousingWire Daily examines the most compelling articles reported across HW Media. Each afternoon, we provide our listeners with a deeper look into the stories coming across our newsroom that are helping Move Markets Forward. Hosted and produced by Alcynna Lloyd and Elissa Branch.
