AdvertisementBarbara Corcoran says it's "disturbing" how young people are being locked out of the housing market. The "Shark Tank" investor pointed to first-time buyers getting older and losing out to cash buyers. High prices, steep mortgage rates, and fierce competition are locking young people out of becoming homeowners, Barbara Corcoran says. Plus, the median age of first-time buyers climbed from 35 to 38. Corcoran also dismissed concerns that the housing market is overheated and headed for a slump.

☆ What Trump tariffs could mean for AI darling Nvidia
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-08 | by ( Samantha Subin | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Wall Street is questioning how potential tariffs on imports under a Trump administration could affect artificial intelligence darling Nvidia and the broader industry . Earlier this year, Trump accused Taiwan of stealing the chipmaking business from the U.S. and said he would impose tariffs as president. NVDA 5D mountain Shares over the last week If the administration implements tariffs, Ives believes Nvidia could gain some workaround given its integral status. That could come in the form of excluding some of its next AI chips and graphics processing units from the tariff wave expected in spring 2025. Many investors also view Trump as a proponent of AI innovation.

For nearly a decade, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren has been working to enforce oversight over Navient, a major student-loan company. Warren and some of her Democratic colleagues were concerned that the company was not properly managing student-loan borrowers' payment options, causing them to accumulate unaffordable student debt. However, it released an accountability framework in December that outlined enforcement actions it would take should servicers harm borrowers, including fining servicers and transferring borrowers to better-performing servicers. For example, MOHELA was the first servicer to be hit with a $7 million fine last October for failing to send on-time billing statements to over 2 million borrowers. Terminate MOHELA's contract and put loan services on notice: we will not tolerate your negligence and exploitation; we will not let you profiteer off vulnerable student borrowers."
