S&P 500 outperformed the housing market over the long run
Original: Thinking about buying stocks instead of a home? The S&P 500 has blown away the housing market
Fortune highlights a comparison for people weighing whether to buy a home or invest instead, arguing that the S&P 500 has delivered far stronger returns than the housing market over the long term. The piece feeds an ongoing debate about whether homeownership remains the best path to building wealth, especially with mortgage rates and home prices still elevated.
Why now: High mortgage rates and unaffordable home prices are pushing people to question whether buying a house is still the best investment.
