A constant stream of Hindu funeral cremation ceremonies at the river next to the Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu. At least a dozen cremations were underway simultaneously, as mourners waited to honor at at least half a dozen more dead.

Saturday's catastrophic earthquake could cost Nepal $5 billion, IHS Asia Pacific Chief Economist Rajiv Biswas estimated Monday. That figure is more than a quarter of Nepal's gross domestic product last year, which the World Bank says was $19.3 billion. IHS calls itself "the premier provider of global market, industry and technical expertise."
