| 11/5/2026 1:15 PM | ||
| Yesterday, it was a drop below 7.25%. Today, the 7.20% floor was broken. Mortgage rates have been on a tear over the past month and are now back to 7.17% for the average lender. If there"s one thing that deserves most of the credit for this bull run, it"s the extreme bearishness in tech stocks. The NASDAQ is now down roughly 14% from the October h...Read More | ||

| Why am I a sucker for stories like, “What Do the Twins in the Shining Look Like Now?”? Is the American public a sucker for not being more concerned that no politician seems concerned about the burgeoning deficit? Will there be any “fiscal conservatives” in Congress, or the White House?
