Articles: Subprime, Credit Crunch, etc.

So many developments, so fast, and so much more data needed, but today presents the first few articles that takes stock of everything going on.


First Ignatius of the WaPo does a nice job summarizing the subprime situation and throwing a bit of caution out there.


Then some through analysis from the Economist Magazine that paints probabilities of the road ahead. 60% chance this can be contained by monetary policy, 30% chance recession, 10% drastic global recession.

And finally the NYT takes it local looking at the subprime and housing bubble impact on home owners. Long one, I just skimmed it, but got the gist, house don't sell, price going down, ARM resets, can't move, can't sell.
