WASHINGTON (AFX) -- Consumer credit posted a large, unexpected drop in October, falling by $7.2 billion, according to the Federal Reserve. It was the largest drop since the Fed began keeping records. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch were expecting consumer credit to rise in October, by $3.7 billion. Revolving credit fell by $1.6 billion, or 2.4%, while nonrevolving credit declined 5%, to $5.6 billion

Bankruptcies?

wait a second those would not be posted yet as Oct 12th was the big surge unless of course those were somehow from September.

I think I expect huge declines going forward because of bankruptcies on top of January rules to double payments
