Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil
  • The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

  • In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

  • Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

  • San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say
  • An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.

  • The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.

  • The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.

  • It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.
