• The housing market is showing even more signs of heating up.
  • Housing starts and mortgage applications continue to rise as homebuyers are taking advantage of low interest rates.
  • Lennar Corp. (NYSE: LEN) just announced a positive earnings report that revealed the company is scrambling to develop new inventory as they run short.
  • Listing length is moving to single digits in some areas.
  • Here are some long trades you could put on: ITB, HD, LOW, LEN, LGIH, TREX, and SHW.

Andrew Keene (12 p.m. EDT)

• Our newest Markets Live expert Andrew Keene was living with his parents working odd jobs when he discovered how to trade options.
