New study warns that one type of US home foreclosures could surge by staggering 380%: 'Hidden risks'
Weather-related foreclosures across the United States could jump 380% over the next 10 years, reported CBS MoneyWatch. By 2035, weather-driven events could account for up to 30% of all foreclosures, compared with roughly 7% today. The research from First Street, a climate impact analysis firm, shows how rising repair costs and insurance premiums are creating a perfect storm for American homeowners. Weather-driven foreclosures happen when extreme conditions damage homes so badly that owners can't afford the repairs or insurance costs. Unlike traditional foreclosures caused by job loss or financial hardship, these stem directly from floods, hurricanes, wildfires, and other weather disasters. The problem hits families with low and moderate incomes the hardest since most of their wealth is tied up in their homes. When a storm destroys your house and insurance doesn't cover the full cost, foreclosure often becomes the only option. These foreclosures are a concealed financial risk that most lenders don't consider when approving mortgages, per the report. Banks typically look at your income, debt, and credit score but not whether your future home sits in a flood zone or wildfire path. First Street projects lenders will lose $1.2 billion this year alone, with losses climbing to $5.4 billion annually by 2035. For every 1% increase in insurance costs, it estimates foreclosure rates jump by roughly 1% nationwide. "Such losses represent the 'hidden risks' of climate change that lenders often fail to account for in their underwriting practices," CBS MoneyWatch wrote while paraphrasing Jeremy Porter, head of climate implications at First Street. This oversight leaves both homeowners and banks vulnerable when disaster strikes. Florida faces the biggest risk, with eight of the top 10 counties for the highest projected credit losses. Duval County alone could experience $60 million in losses from 900 foreclosures in a severe weather year. Do you think America is in a housing crisis? Definitely Not sure No way Only in some cities Click your choice to see results and speak your mind. However, the impact goes beyond coastal areas. Heavy rainfall and river flooding threaten inland communities too, especially where flood insurance coverage remains spotty. The real problem lies in insurance gaps. The Federal Emergency Management Agency's flood maps cover just under 8 million properties, but First Street estimates nearly 18 million homes face flood risk. That leaves millions of homeowners without proper coverage. "About half the people with significant flood risk aren't mapped into [FEMA's] Special Flood Hazard Area," Porter explained. "So it leads to a state where we have a lot of underinsurance across the country." Properties outside official flood zones saw foreclosure rates 52% higher than those inside protected areas when flooding occurred from 2002 to 2019. "If you don't protect yourselves, then when the event does occur it's completely on you. You end up having to pay out of pocket and you may go into foreclosure," Porter said. When buying a home, ask about flood risk even if you're not in an official flood zone. Consider flood insurance regardless of requirements, and factor potential weather-related costs into your budget.

Can Investing $10,000 in Quantum Computing (QUBT) Stock Turn Into $1 Million by 2035?
Quantum Computing (NASDAQ: QUBT) is an up-and-coming pioneer in the red-hot field of quantum computing. Could investing $10,000 in this stock turn into $1 million by 2035? It's possible, but the odds are stacked against it. That said, I think there is a viable path for Quantum Computing to make you a millionaire over the next 10 years. Here's what would be required. What would it take for Quantum Computing stock to turn $10,000 into $1 million by 2035? Quantum Computing's market cap currently hovers around $2.66 billion. Its share price was $18.88 at the market close on June 20, 2025. An investment of $10,000 would buy 529 shares at that price, with $12.48 left over. The company's share price would need to grow 100x to $1,888 for a $10,000 initial investment (assuming you didn't buy any fractional shares) to be worth $1 million in a decade. That reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 58.49%. Quantum Computing has certainly demonstrated that it can deliver a much greater annual return than that over the short term. Over the last 12 months, the stock has skyrocketed by more than 3,000%. Sustaining a CAGR of 58.49% over 10 years is a daunting task, but it's not impossible. For example, a $10,000 investment in Nvidia in 2015 would be worth over $2.6 million today. Of course, you would have had to resist the temptation to sell during the GPU stock's huge swings up and down during that period. How could it happen? Now for a more difficult question: How could Quantum Computing stock achieve a CAGR of 58.49% over the next 10 years? To answer this question, we need to understand the company's business. Quantum Computing uses integrated photonics (computing with particles of light) and nonlinear quantum optics to develop quantum computers. The company believes its approach to quantum computing is superior to rivals' methods that use superconducting, trapped-ion, and annealing architectures. Photons' advantages include lower energy consumption, faster processing, and scalability. The photonic integrated circuit market size in 2024 was around $15 billion. Over the next five years, this market is projected to expand by a CAGR of 20.5% to $38.4 billion. While that is an impressive growth rate, it isn't enough to propel Quantum Computing stock 100x higher. But Quantum Computing could grow significantly faster than the overall photonic integrated circuit market. The company's thin film lithium niobate wafers, which it believes will be "the silicon of the future," could make it possible. Also, the photonic integrated circuit market's growth could accelerate beyond 2029. I could envision this occurring if the adoption of the technology in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous vehicles, and high-performance computing takes off in a huge way. Evaluating the odds It's quite possible that investing $10,000 in Quantum Computing stock could make you a millionaire over the next 10 years. But how probable is this scenario? The odds aren't great. For one thing, Quantum Computing's photonics technology might be surpassed by approaches that prove to be even better. Many of the companies investing heavily in developing quantum computers have deep pockets, including Google parent Alphabet, Amazon, IBM, Microsoft, and Nvidia. Other rising stars in the quantum computing industry, such as IonQ, D-Wave Quantum, and Rigetti Computing, could potentially be bigger winners than Quantum Computing. Perhaps progress in advancing quantum computing technology won't be fast enough to support the market growth required for Quantum Computing to be a millionaire-maker. I suspect that won't be the case, but I wouldn't rule it out. The good news for investors, though, is that Quantum Computing doesn't have to turn an initial $10,000 into $1 million by 2035 to still deliver exceptional returns. Should you invest $1,000 in Quantum Computing right now? Before you buy stock in Quantum Computing, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Quantum Computing wasn't one of them.

Canada Slashes Forecast for Making Housing More Affordable
Doubling the pace of homebuilding in Canada will only bring affordability back to levels seen right before the Covid-19 pandemic, according to a new government report that lowers expectations for the impact of construction on housing costs. The country must boost building to as much as 480,000 housing units a year by 2035 just to bring affordability back to where it was in 2019, the report from the Canada Mortgage & Housing Corp. said Thursday. The current rate of homebuilding is about 250,000 units, the agency said.
