Home-builder stocks have taken a beating so far this year, but market participants say there could be more near-term pain ahead for the group because benchmark government bond yields have ratcheted higher, lifting borrowing costs for prospective homeowners. “Rising interest rates prompted a lot of investors to sell these stocks, because they believe higher rates will dent demand for housing,” said Diane Jaffee, senior portfolio manager at TCW. The home-building index peaked on Jan. 22 at 1,155.75 and is down 20% since then at 924.17, meeting the traditional criteria for a bear market.
