- FHFA to Bulk-Sell Foreclosed Homes - 22 March 2012
- High Frequency Trading - 8 March 2012
As home foreclosures continue and Americans are forced to find alternative housing, the rental market in major centers is reportedly taking strain in keeping up with the demand. This may very well be alleviated by the bulk sale of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac-owned houses to investors-turned-landlords. It has been reported that among the high-profile investors showing an interesting in the bulk buying of foreclosed homes are OakTree Capital Management, Starwood Capital, Och-Ziff Capital Management, and TPG Capital.
With the anniversary of the May 2010 "flash crash" coming up, high frequency trading continues to be a somewhat controversial topic, with proponents pointing out that any major shift in investing tends to unsettle investors and traders, and critics voicing concern that nanosecond trading could bring the whole system to its knees. On May 6, 2010, at 14h42 EDT the Dow Jones industrial average plummeted by 600 points in just 6 minutes before rebounding by 15h07. It was the index's most volatile intraday activity in its 114-year history and high frequency trading is thought to have been the trigger.
