    Question

    Toll Brothers Falls 10.7% Post-Earnings as Home Deliveries Drop 10% YoY

    Direct answer

    Toll Brothers is experiencing margin compression as construction cost inflation and SG&A expenses outpace a modest 2.3% gain in average selling prices. Delivery volumes dropped 10% year-over-year, indicating buyer resistance to higher borrowing costs. With 10-year Treasury yields near 5% following Fed rate hikes to 3.75%-4.00%, housing affordability headwinds are triggering downward revisions across residential homebuilders.
