HINT 2:
Foreclosures Keep Rising

Spiking mortgages defaults, which have wrecked U.S. credit markets, show no signs of retreat. Last month's foreclosures nearly doubled from a year ago as more homeowners failed to make payments on time, according to a report released by RealtyTrac on Tuesday.

RealtyTrac, which maintains a national database on U.S. real estate, said foreclosures rose 93% in July from last year and 9% from June.
Spiking defaults are also an unwelcome sign for homebuilders. Defaults will keep supply high and demand low in an already weak housing market.
