suffering financial problems due to the pandemic. This represents 7.8 percent of
mortgage lenders and just under $900 billion in unpaid principal. This is the

Trend channels in financial markets are some of the most basic forms of analysis.  They consist of lines drawn along the highs and lows of a charted security.  When parallel lines can be drawn that connect more than a few highs and lows, you have a trend channel!  It's even acceptable for the security to break outside the lines here and there if they are still capturing a majority of the bounces.  The goal of a trend channel is right in the name: we're trying to capture a general trend that speaks to the pace of improvement or deterioration in any given security.......(read more)Forward this article via email:  Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.Fidelity Home Group | Mortgage News | Mortgage Rates

WUCF on Thursday announced the launch of a new podcast, "Pivoted," that will feature conversations with local musicians as they adjust to the strange and difficult reality of being a working musician during the coronavirus pandemic.

Kendra Weaver is the producer and host of the podcast, and the guest list is a pretty eclectic group of music lifers, including Jeff Rupert, Carol Stein, Benoit Glazer, and Sisaundra Lewis.

Local musicians are in a tough spot right now. Live music is basically over for the foreseeable future, studio recording is a logistical nightmare, music lessons and instruction are transitioning to the virtual realm … there will certainly be a lot of ground to cover in these conversations.

WUCF has already posted up two episodes of "Pivoted" online with Carol Stein and Jeff Rupert for immediate listening, and a new episode will be made available every Thursday running for the next six weeks.

Another widely talked-about portion of the ride is the heartline roll. This maneuver is near the end of the attraction and w ...
