P2P lenders may work with consumers or small businesses. Some well-known marketplaces include Prosper and Funding Circle.

54% of recent homebuyers believe the Fed is "politically motivated" to cut rates ahead of the November election, according to a new survey from @usnews But respondents believe other common misconceptions about our favorite scapegoat, the Federal Reserve👇https://t.co/Zqr3YABZUz
