Plan to Slow Foreclosures

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson plans to unveil a plan being hammered out with the mortgage industry that's intended to slow the record number of homes falling into foreclosure and ease the damage from the housing recession.

Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody's Economy.com says, "This is the most serious housing recession since the Great Depression". Zandi predicts that home prices, on average, will fall 7% more through next year.
