D.R. Horton Inc., America’s largest homebuilder, reported resilient margins but softening orders, facing headwinds from high interest rates curbing affordability. While its earnings per share and net margins were strong, competitor Lennar Corp showed significant revenue drops, signaling broader industry pressure. DACH investors are advised to monitor D.R. Horton for diversification, especially given the company’s focus on affordable housing and its potential for growth if interest rates ease.
