the 2005 - 2007 was the time of easy mortgages and that's why everyone was doing foreclosures. That was time when EVERYONE was in, and there wasn't much to go around. Now, it will be very difficult to get financing to buy a foreclosure property, therefore it will be mailny for cash-liquid...

Nice post. does anyone know: - how do they qualify who needs to disclose short positions?

People notice what? The excessive spending and splurging? That could be from robbing a bank. Lots of private traders trade from home, make a very very very impressive return and only their spouses and the IRS know the sources of income. I doubt the IRS calls traders monthly with stats on...

Has anyone jumped into the foreclosures market? I know 3 years ago every idiot and their mother was doing it, with all those late nite informercials so it made no economic sense, but now I think there is MUCH more supply than demand - even from those who flp em-. Cost of carry got higher...

Mortgage Brokers make a commission when they make a "sale" (originate mortgages). As a cut of % + closing costs. Freddie and Fanny reduced their standarts where they would by almost any crap. Banks allowed for no-income verification loans. Mortage Brokers started finding ANYONE to buy a...

Guys, its a 1000 times simpler than that. Once you go short - the trade needs to get crealered/matched. DTC does that. As soon as they see a Short vs Buy - they know EXACTLY who did it, which broker, etc.

Here is probably the main point you want to make when writing these FUCKING IDIOTS - Enacting an enourmously burdensome transaction tax will drive liquidity completely away from these markets. The current bank bail-out proposal is being discussed for the sole reason of no liquidity for the...

how is that? drugs are legal in Holland and I don't see any dutch banks failing. also, pardon, but what the fuck do the law enforcement sources know about banking and economy?

With WM in the shitter, Wachovia seems to be next, any thoughts on the future of C?

you better email back your math backward friend. not only is the whole assumption WRONG, but the math is off by a factor of 1,000. boo.

I know that if the bill passes the trading will be great for a few days. Just buy buy buy. But: why not use the $700 BB of taxpayers money to charter a Federal Comercial Reserve Bank that will finance the new lending. Isn't that what Bush was saying today: lets get rid of the...
