Rocket Mortgage Is Being Sued for Steering Buyers

When Iran struck Saudi Arabia, every historical model predicted mortgage rates would drop. Investors flee to Treasury bonds in a crisis — that's how it's always worked. Rates went up instead. Back over 6%. The pattern that buyers, agents, and analysts have relied on for decades just broke in real time. We break down why that happened, what it means for anyone waiting on rates to fall, and what the Home Depot earnings call quietly revealed about where the Fed is actually headed. We also get into the number that stopped Reddit cold this week: a record 18% of California property transfers are now happening through inheritance. Not purchases. Inheritance. The WSJ called it. We get into what it means for buyers, sellers, and anyone trying to crack into the most expensive real estate market in America. Plus — a viral video where a young woman chooses free Starbucks over a Bitcoin worth $60,000. The financial literacy conversation is bigger than the clip. Women are projected to control 75% of America's wealth by 2030. That wealth transfer is already happening. Is the industry ready for it?
