FYI: The bears love to hate the housing sector, and for years they have been on the wrong side of the trade. On Tuesday, the new home sales number was released, and it crushed estimates. Within the report, the January number was revised higher to 500k, marking the first time sales have hit at least 500k in consecutive months since early 2008.
