Ken Fisher Discusses His Housing Market Outlook

Fisher Investments’ founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer Ken Fisher shares his thoughts on the current housing market. Ken acknowledges strong housing prices across much of the US and western world, yet no corresponding boom in the volume of homes for sale, partly due to supply-chain challenges.

Ken believes COVID plays a large role in rising home prices. According to Ken, as people spent more time at home due to government-mandated lockdowns, many became inspired to upgrade their home environments. Due to low home-supply growth, Ken feels near-term pricing is likely to remain relatively strong.
