Ian Ayres talks about what we still don't know about the subprime crisis and Shiller's The Subprime Solution(s) (see also my review)...
...While in a recent paper, Gary Gorton explains what we know (the best summary I've seen so far)
Speaking of Shiller, a recent WSJ article talks about his Graham P/E measure, named after Great Depression investor Benjamin Graham. Bob Shiller is a great student of economic history and is brilliant at bringing to light such things into light.
Dr. Doom continues to be pessimistic
How one of US Treasury's recently acquired toys can help value mortgage-related assets
