The value of the US housing market has ballooned to $26 trillion. In many markets, prices exceed even the peak of the prior house price bubble that blew up so spectacularly. This construct is weighed down by $14 trillion in mortgage debt, or about 76% of US GDP. Of that, $10 trillion is owed on one- to four-family residences. The numbers are big – and they matter.

But who’s doing the lending? More and more: nonbanks, evocatively called "shadow banks." They have now overtaken... Читать дальше...

Marvel

For the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we have been introduced to the sorcery side of the company's comic books, with their release of “Doctor Strange” (in theaters November 4).

It's expected by this point that Marvel knows how to properly tell an origin story about one of its properties, and that holds with "Doctor Strange." Director Scott Derrickson ("Sinister") lays out what transforms egotistical neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange from master of the ER to master of the mystic arts.

The restaurant chain posted earnings of $1.23 per share, slightly above analysts expectations of $1.22 per share. Revenue came in lighter than expected at $494 million against expectations of $500 million.

This year's World Series features two of the most tortured franchises in all of baseball. 

The Cleveland Indians have only made the World Series five times, and have only won twice. Their last American League pennant came in 1997, and you have to go all the way back to 1948 for their last World Series championship.

And then there is the Chicago Cubs, who famously have not been in the World Series since 1945, and have not won since 1908.

Considering the two ball clubs' respective droughts... Читать дальше...

This problem will be even more exacerbated by the rise of e-commerce, as customers increasingly ship back goods to the retailer, who often might pay for the shipping costs.
