After enjoying multi-year price upsides, Mexican homebuilders
have turned lower. Mexico is not plagued with credit and subprime
mortgage problems, rather suitable land is in relative short supply
and necessary infrastructure is lacking.
The chart of Homex Development (HXM)
is down from its peak but not as much as its U.S. and Mexican counterparts.
However, the stocks of four other major Mexican homebuilders have
not been as fortunate (table).
