Last week investors in mortgage securities, including the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, sent a letter to the Bank of America, demanding that it buy back billions of dollars of mortgages that were bundled into securities and sold by Countrywide. (Bank of America took over Countrywide in 2008). Investors contention is that the documentation supporting the loan is faulty, and that Bank of America did not correct the deficiencies in the loan files and lien records when these deficiencies were found. Investors can try to force a bank to buy back its securities, if the strict rules governing the issue of such securities were not followed. As the market for mortgage securities is about $1.4 trillion dollars, even if a small fraction of the securities is affected, it would pose serious problems for the banks. This is a problem that can't be papered over.

LyrArc Article Gist
Poor performance by UK Tories leader Kemi Badenoch at PMQ Prime Ministers Questions in the British parliament, broadcast on C-SPAN every Sunday at 9.00 pm US EST, is leading to speculation among Tories that she may not be around after local elections. Robert Jenrick who contested the leadership election is around says skeptics. Tories have changed leaders from  Cameron to May, May to Johnson, to Truss, to Sunak, to Badenoch, and now Jenrick?

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
