WHY IT MATTERS: Wall Street regulation
By MARCY GORDON - AP - Tue Sep 20, 1:12PM CDT
WASHINGTON (AP) — THE ISSUE: The financial crisis that struck in 2008 touched off the worst recession since the 1930s Great Depression, wiping out $11 trillion in U.S. household wealth and leaving about 8 million Americans jobless. More than 5 million families lost their homes to foreclosure. Reckless trading and aggressive practices on Wall Street in the prior boom years were pinned with much of the blame.

Shining Bright in an Unstable Gold Market
JCN Newswire - Fri Sep 16, 9:23AM CDT
Gold prices went through a week of uncertainty due to mixed economic data. First there were weak retail sales data, which led gold prices to surge, yet investors remained uncertain how the data will affect the upcoming decision of the Federal Reserve on September 20-21. There is a possibility that strong jobs and the increase in household income data will overshadow disappointing retail sales, giving the Fed enough encouragement to raise interest rates. The U.S Dollar has slightly increased in value, and as a result, gold prices dropped Thursday, yet remained strongly positioned in their expected range. Brazil Resources Inc.
