2 Question Tuesday® – 01/20/2026 – How Does the Greenland Situation End? Why Did Confidence Among U.S. Homebuilders Unexpectedly Fall in January?

Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday®. This week’s questions were:

  1. How does the Greenland situation end?
  2. Why did confidence among U.S. homebuilders unexpectedly fall in January?

Phil, Mike, and Larry talk about capital leaving the U.S. — sparking a big drop in the financial markets — as President Trump’s comments on Greenland spark fear of a trade war, the end of NATO, and what Europe’s response will be. They then discuss why U.S. homebuilders’ confidence fell unexpectedly in January, despite lower mortgage rates and the president’s housing proposals.
