US long-term mortgage rates rise; 30-year loan at 3.73%
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. long-term mortgage rates rose this week. Still, rates remain at historically low levels as a lure to prospective homebuyers. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac says the average rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage increased to 3.73% from 3.68% last week. The benchmark rate stood at 4.63% a year ago. The average rate on a 15-year mortgage rose to 3.19% from 3.14%.

As we head into the final weeks of December 2019, traders and investors alike can’t help but wonder if December concludes with the traditional holiday melt-up rally or repeat a brutal melt-down like December 2018.

Children's Place Sees Stock Drop After Report of Gymboree Relaunch Troubles
Just yesterday, we got word in about Children's Place (NASDAQ: PLCE) about how its third-quarter report didn't boast any word of markdowns, though we were pretty clear that it was “only a matter of time” until the company did start marking down. We were right, and a lot sooner than most probably expected, as word emerged of a 23% drop…

Why Home Depot Remains a Good Investment
Home Depot (NYSE:HD) shares are holding steady one day after the company issued a forecast for lower sales volume in 2020. The Atlanta-based home improvement chain is not forecasting total sales to rise by 3.5% in 2020. In the all-important comparable-store sales, Home Depot is forecasting an increase of 4%. This is shy of analysts’ expectations for comparable-store sales growth of 4.3%.

It's Not All Gravy In Retail Land
A Retailers Dilemma; Trading Profit For Traffic One of the biggest draws for consumers is a good deal. Our need for a good deal can be seen in the downfall of JC Penny’s (JCP) ex-CEO Ron Johnson. Johnson had the brilliant idea that, instead of marking down over-priced items, JC Penny would have low prices every day. JC Penny saw its traffic plunge, its comp-store sales decline, its revenue fall, and earnings recede.
