The Mortgage Rate Trap: 5 Ways Older Homeowners Can Break Free (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The sharp spike in mortgage rates may hobble older homeowners who plan to use their homes as a key source of retirement cash.

IPOs are back — and so is the hype. SpaceX (SPCX) launched its record-breaking initial public offering in June, and artificial-intelligence heavyweights Anthropic and OpenAI have also filed to go public, although there's talk that the latter, the developer of ChatGPT, may delay its upcoming IPO until 2027.
