Many Facebook insiders are heading for the exits, planning to cash out shares in Friday's initial public offering. A filing shows early Facebook investors could sell as much as half their stock. The offering is the most anticipated in years, and is expected to be priced after the market closes today. Shares are likely to be set about $35 each. But the cost to the public might be far more. "The price may immediately shoot up 40-50-60 and then you're paying double what it was just a few minutes, an hour earlier," Hofstra University finance professor Andrew Spieler says.

Spieler says many hot IPOs start high and later fall in value: "If you look out two to three years, the majority of IPOs have actually gone down."

"It's not that foreclosures have completely gone away by any means, but at least they're heading in the right direction and finally have kind of gotten through this very big batch of bad loans that triggered the foreclosure crisis in the first place," Blomquist says.
