Home sales fell again in September as surging mortgage rates, rising prices discouraged homebuyers_我的网站
A | LOS ANGELES -- Sales of previously occupied U.S. homes fell for the fourth month in a row in September, held back by surging mortgage rates and a thin supply of properties on the market.Existing home sales fell 2% last month from August to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.96 million, the National Association of Realtors said Thursday. That’s just above the 3.9 million unit pace that economists were expecting, according to FactSet.Sales sank 15.4% compared with the same month last year and are down 21% through the first nine months of the year versus the same period in 2022.Despite the housing market slump, home prices kept climbing versus a year ago. The national median sales price rose 2.8% from September last year to $394,300. It slipped 3.1% from August.“Clearly, the story of limited inventory and rising and rising mortgage rates continues to hinder the home sales market,” said Lawrence Yun, the NAR’s chief economist.The weekly average rate on a 30-year mortgage moved above 7% in August, when many of the home sales that were finalized in September would have gone under contract. It has remained above that threshold since, surging last week to 7.57%, the highest level since 2000, according to mortgage buyer Freddie Mac.High rates can add hundreds of dollars a month in costs for borrowers, limiting how much they can afford in a market already out of reach for many Americans. They also discourage homeowners who locked in rock-bottom rates two years ago from selling.While surging mortgage rates have shut out many prospective buyers, a chronic shortage of homes for sale continues to keep the market competitive, especially for the most affordable homes.Homes sold last month typically within just 21 days after hitting the market, and about 26% of homes sold for more than their list price, the NAR said.All told, there were 1.13 million homes on the market by the end of last month, up 2.7% from August, but down 8.1% from September last year, the NAR said. That amounts to just a 3.4-month supply, going by the current sales pace. In a more balanced market between buyers and sellers, there is a 4- to 5-month supply.。 8 月 26 日消息，据央视财经今日报道，7 月份，全社会用电量再次突破 1 万亿千瓦时，互联网数据服务用电量同比增长 40%。算力正在成为新增用电的重要来源。
B | 江苏常熟一家智算中心 8 月最大用电负荷较去年同期增长超 70%，算力产业最高用电负荷已达 20 万千瓦，占全市用电负荷比重约 4.1%。国网常熟市供电公司表示：“算力产业贡献全市近半数用电负荷增量，占比约 49%，反映出算力负荷逐步取代季节性空调负荷，成为今夏用电增长的核心主力。”7 月，江苏 106 家算力中心企业用电量突破 13 亿千瓦时，同比增长 31%，其中超算和智算中心用电量占比超 8 成。近日，国内首次百兆瓦级算电协同调节在冀北电网完成。晚高峰时段，11 座算力中心自发参与协同，不到 10 分钟为电网释放出 100.64 兆瓦供电空间，足以同时满足两万多户居民用电需求。
C | 国网冀北电力有限公司调控中心主任王宣元说：“有点像负负荷等于正发电的概念，也就是虚拟电厂的概念。”报道称，根据预测，到 2030 年，我国数据中心用电量预计将激增至 8,000 亿度。
D | 与此同时，我国光伏和风电装机也将增长到 28 亿千瓦以上。
E | 面对海量算力与绿电消纳的双重挑战，多地正通过算电协同，让算力跟着绿电走，实现降成本与促消纳的双赢。在内蒙古乌兰察布，全球单体最大的智算中心正在探索绿电直供的新模式，通过自建风电场和 AI 电力系统给智算中心供电，解决智算和绿电的波动性难题。国新办今日举行“开局起步‘十五五’”系列主题新闻发布会，工业和信息化部相关负责人表示，我国将着力推动信息通信业高质量发展，加快新一代通信网、算力网规划建设，推动 5G、工业互联网在重点行业规模化普及应用，加强 6G 技术研发，增强网络和数据安全保障能力，巩固提升信息通信业竞争优势和领先地位。广告声明：文内含有的对外跳转链接（包括不限于超链接、二维码、口令等形式），用于传递更多信息，节省甄选时间，结果仅供参考，包含外链的文章均包含本声明。
