Textron Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXT#NYSE">TXT</a>) shares are trading lower on Wednesday following the announcement that it is pursuing strategic alternatives for its Powersports <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">product line within its Industrial segment.</a>
The decision comes as the consumer demand for powersports products continues to remain soft, per an exchange <a target="_blank" href="https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000217346/66610f37-e512-425a-9f5c-6043e7c8c7c5.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">filing</a>.
In response, Textron&#8217;s Textron Specialized Vehicles business will begin pausing production of its powersports products after completing limited production runs to fulfill customer commitments.
Production is expected to be paused indefinitely in the first half of 2025.
As part of this restructuring effort, Textron has increased its expected pre-tax special charges for its 2023 restructuring plan.
Originally expected to range between $165 million and $170 million, these charges will now range from $190 million to $205 million, reflecting contract termination costs related to the production pause.

Additionally, the company anticipates incurring an inventory valuation charge of $30 million to $40 million to write down powersports inventory to its net realizable value.
This charge will reduce adjusted earnings per share for 2024 by approximately $0.12 to $0.16.
While announcing its third quarter results, Textron&nbsp;revised its 2024 adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations outlook to $5.40&nbsp;to&nbsp;$5.60, down from its previous&nbsp;outlook&nbsp;of&nbsp;$6.20&nbsp;to&nbsp;$6.40.

The U.S. mortgage market hit a speed bump last week as rising interest rates pushed application activity lower, breaking a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s#:~:text=Econ%20%23s%20Recent%20News&amp;text=Markets%20are%20fully%20priced%20in,impact%20monetary%20policy%20for%202025.&amp;text=US%20private%20sector%20ended%202024,Manufacturing%20sector%20still%20in%20contraction.">five-week streak of growth.</a>
According to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), total mortgage applications decreased 0.7% for the week ending Dec. 13, 2024, signaling persistent challenges for buyers and homeowners navigating high-rate environments.
The average interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages on conforming loan balances — up to $766,550 — rose from 6.67% to 6.75%, snapping three consecutive weeks of marginal declines.
"Mortgage rates increased last week, leading to overall mortgage application activity decreasing for the first time in five weeks,&#8221; said Joel Kan, MBA's vice president and deputy chief economist.
&#8220;Buyers remained active in the purchase market, helped by gradually improving inventory conditions and a more positive outlook on the economy and job market,&#8221; he added.
The Mortgage Refinance Index fell 3% from the previous week, but still remained 41% higher than the same period in 2023. VA refinance applications plunged 17%, offsetting gains seen in prior weeks.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Housing Affordability: Renting vs. Owning</h3>
Mortgage rates remain near 7%, while home prices have risen in all 97 major U.S. cities. 
Bank of America examined the rent-versus-buy dilemma in 97 U.S. cities in a note to clients on Wednesday.
The result? In places like San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Jose, mortgage payments now account for a staggering 60-70% of median family income, making renting the clear budget-friendly option, according to the investment bank. 
&#8220;Regionally, it is still cheaper to rent than purchase for 82 out of 97 major cities in the US,&#8221; analyst Jeseo Park wrote. 
New Orleans, Pittsburgh, and El Paso are among the cities where it&#8217;s cheaper to own than rent.
"The housing market is still stuck between high mortgage rates and low inventories," said Park. 
"We've seen some relief with the Federal Reserve starting to ease monetary policy, but rates are unlikely to fall dramatically in the near term. Buyers should expect only mild improvements next year," she added. 
With the mortgage spread hovering around 2-2.5 percentage points and Bank of America analysts forecasting a 10-year yield of 4.25% in 2025, mortgage rates are expected to stay around 6-6.5% next year. 
&#8220;Given that many homeowners locked in low rates during Covid, a mortgage rate above 6% would still be too high to promote significant activity,&#8221; Park stated.

The iShares Residential and Multisector Real Estate ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/REZ#NYSE">REZ</a>) edged up 0.1% on Wednesday, following twelve losses in the past thirteen sessions.
The VanEck Mortgage REIT Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MORT#NYSE">MORT</a>) climbed 0.5%, recovering from a 1.3% decline on Tuesday.
