* The 25-year-old+ population, which is typically the starting age of new household formation, grew by 13.5%. Meanwhile, housing stock, which includes multi-family and single-family units, only grew 10.8%. * The addition of new adults to the U.S. economy could put greater pressure on a housing stock that Fannie Mae already estimated is undersupplied by 3.8 million units in 2019. * While there were 1.4 million housing starts at the end of 2023, this does not account for obsolete homes being removed from the housing stock and will do little to alleviate this U.S. housing shortage. Additionally, signs point to fewer housing starts across the U.S. over the next two years, as an increase in construction costs have limited developer and homebuilder activity. * In the medium term, the dearth of new housing supply and the presence of strong demand is likely to maintain pressure on affordability for both renters and buyers.

Philanthropy is a core commitment of our culture at Bellwether. For our LA office's annual Philanthropy Day, the team volunteered at MudTown Farms, an urban farm and community wellness center in Watts. The team spent the day working around the farm, pulling weeds, mulching, turning a live compost pile and organizing a shoe drive. We are grateful for the opportunity to support our local community.

Hotter-than-expected inflation was a trend throughout 1Q 2024, as CPI’s shelter cost remains elevated. Shelter cost is the largest CPI category, making up over 36% of the calculation weighting. The main component, owners’ equivalent rent of primary residence, makes up roughly 74% of shelter cost or just over a quarter of the CPI calculation weighting. In this Chart for Thought, we analyze the shelter cost methodology, why it’s deeply flawed, and why it has major implications for global investors, central banks, and citizens.
