Sceptical

Coverage portrays mortgages as increasingly constrained by higher long-term rates, tight capital competition and a bifurcated housing market. Lyn Alden said higher yields would further damage housing and shut out young families, while Adam Tooze described borrowers locked into sub-4% fixed rates as insulated but movers facing much higher refinancing costs. Walter Bloomberg highlighted the disappearance of small mortgages, and Todd Horwitz warned that rising rates and household debt were contributing to mortgage defaults. 1235

Stories it travels in

i

The stories

  • ○ a voice, on the left
  • ◌ a voice raising half of these
  • ● a subject, on the right, under its story
  • ⌒ a line is a voice raising a subject — thicker, more items; colour is the story

The stories this entity travels in: on the right, each story with the subjects seen alongside it; on the left, the voices that raised them, and a line for every subject a voice raised, bundled by story. Tap a voice to light everything it raises, a subject for who raised it, a story for its own lines. The crumb goes back.
