Things that caught my eye this morning:
- The role of public policy in fostering the housing boom and subsequent bust. (You can find my own writing about the subject here and here.)
- The role of speculators -- or lack thereof -- in driving the 2007-08 oil bubble.
- Department of Justice lawyers are apparently ready to crack their whip on the cell phone industry for reasons that are not at all apparent.
- The president of Creators Syndicate explains why the company is leaving Los Angeles.
