Home.Prices.Drop.Again.

Home prices in the U.S. fell 5.9 percent in the second quarter from a year earlier, the biggest decline since 2009, as foreclosures added to the inventory of properties for sale.

Toll Brothers Inc. (TOL), the largest U.S. luxury-home builder, reported earnings that were better than analysts expected after a tax benefit and demand for its move-up houses remained stronger than other segments of the market.
