This market resolves YES if the initial Census/HUD New Residential Construction release for June 2026 reports total privately-owned U.S. housing starts at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,400,000 or higher. Use the total United States housing starts SAAR value in the initial June 2026 New Residential Construction release. Resolve NO if that value is 1,399,000 or lower. Do not use building permits, housing completions, new residential sales, single-family-only starts, multifamily-only starts, regional starts, not seasonally adjusted counts, year-over-year changes, or later annual revisions unless Census/HUD corrects the initial June 2026 release before resolution. If the June 2026 New Residential Construction release is delayed, wait for the first Census/HUD release containing the June 2026 total housing-starts SAAR value unless there is no such release by July 24, 2026, in which case resolve N/A.
