The National Association of Realtors claims some of the most expensive cities to buy a home are now seeing a substantial drop in price, including cities in California. Homes in San Francisco are seeing an average price of one-point-two-three million dollars, which is actually down over six percent from last year. San Jose, Los Angeles, and Boulder also saw decreases.
MORMON CHURCH FINED
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints must pay the SEC $5 million dollars in a regulatory settlement. The SEC accused Ensign Peak Advisors and the Mormon Church of misleading the public by not disclosing a major investment fund it had in place. That fund is valued at around $32 billion dollars. The church released a statement after the settlement saying "we affirm our commitment to comply with the law, and now consider this matter closed."
