I wrote about the dispute be Fidelity Investments and a newish fintech called Pontera. It raises tons of interesting issues about what happens when we leave ordinary Americans at the mercy of the financial services industry for their golden years.

Fidelity faces off against fintech in battle over 401(k) access

America's 401(k) system leaves consumers at the mercy of financial services companies. One small upstart is tackling a giant incumbent over access.

People might not know about the extreme level of worry that journalists live with after their story has been published or broadcast. The fear that they got something wrong literally keeps them up at night. Obsessively. Now imagine what it will be like as newsrooms thin out and more errors are made.

As a retired reporter, I can say it's even worse. The few remaining reporters are usually general assignment, because it's too expensive to have a beat reporter who can dig in and follow 1 area. Instead, people with little knowledge of a topic are thrown into the deep end.

We also allowed write in nominations for 'America's sport.' The most common answers volunteered were golf, boxing, rodeo & ice skating.

Among the more creative answers we received were “competitive eating,” “grievance politics,” “reality TV” and “cow tipping.”

I wrote about the #BondMarket rout.

The bond market sell-off is more worrisome than the one in stocks. Here's what to know.

Bonds have been selling off over the past few days, signaling deep fissures in the economy and financial markets.

My latest on big changes in the #housingmarket / #realestate. Are the so-called "Clear Cooperation" updates from the National Association of Realtors actually in the best interests of buyers and sellers? Roughly 50 comments on my LinkedIn feed would beg to differ. 🏡

As new real estate listings rules take effect, will buyers and sellers benefit?

A new policy that purports to offer more options for homeowners to list their properties for sale may be a step back for the housing market.
