148. Newswire Update: Flat Lumber, Fat Gas Bill, Send Help
This week's Newswire hits different. The crew opens with a heartfelt tribute to Robbins Lumber and the community rallying around them after a devastating fire — a reminder of what really matters in this industry. Then Trent steers the ship (loosely) through lumber pricing that's about as exciting as a flat board, mortgage rates that just hit a nine-month high right as summer heats up, and gas prices that are making everyone reconsider their life choices. Kevin Warsh is officially in the Fed chair seat, and Natalie has opinions. There's also a full Costco tangent, a Taco Bell social commentary detour, and somewhere in there dead-face Gen Z, and what jobs will even exist in five years. Like and subscribe, and reach out to the crew at lumberslingers@gmail.com — they want to hear from you.

147. Newswire Update: Holding Pattern
This week Natalie and Trent are back with your Friday fix — and honestly, the market is giving them very little to work with. Lumber prices? Barely moved. Mortgage rates? Blinked down a hair. Applications? A polite nudge upward. But don't let the flatline fool you — there's plenty to dig into: two different "Builder Supply Companies" got acquired in the same week (yes, really), Interfor's Q1 numbers just dropped, the softwood lumber duty saga hits a new anniversary milestone (send help), and the R&R market is looking like the only real bright spot in housing. Natalie also just returned from the Oregon Women in Lumber Summit with two thumbs up and some thoughts on energy management that hit differently when you're in this industry. Trent, meanwhile, is grappling with gray hair and the school schedule gods. All this and more — if you like what you hear, subscribe on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts, and reach out at lumberslingers@gmail.com.

146. Newswire Update: Nothing Burger? The Market's Holding Steady
The crew is back from back-to-back trips and running on fumes and good intel. Chelsea just got home from the NAWLA Regional in Vancouver, BC, where 210 industry insiders gathered to talk about the very real pressure Canadian producers are under - and spoiler: it wasn't a warm and fuzzy room. Natalie swung through Louisiana for her CFO 10-group and got a firsthand look at how different logging operations down South are compared to the heavily regulated Pacific Northwest. Then Trent takes the wheel and runs through a busy week: UFP and Carter Lumber making moves on the M&A front, Canadian curtailments, Q1 earnings check-ins on some familiar names, and lumber prices doing their best impression of a flatline. Mortgage rates are also doing that thing again where they tease us and then walk it back. All that plus Mother's Day plans nobody has figured out yet. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and reach out to the crew at lumberslingers@gmail.com - they actually want to hear from you.
