      "summary": "Every weekly start date since 2014, measured to today: how many buyers are down, how far, and the longest anyone has waited to get back above cost.",
      "content_text": "Across 623 weekly start dates since September 2014, 73 are below cost today — about one in eight. The deepest is down 8.8 percent. The longest any cohort spent continuously below what it had paid in was 486 days, and every one of the 623 has been above water at some point.",
