The US housing market is entering a recovery phase, according to a Morgan Stanley note.
Like the economy, the housing market goes through boom and bust cycles, including expansion, hyper-supply, recession, and recovery.
Investors and homeowners can thank one key feature: the 30-year fixed mortgage rate.
The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate as of Friday was 6.66%, up from about 5.3% a year ago and 2.8% two years prior.
Below are three US-listed stocks that Morgan Stanley sees upside in for this theme.
