biz.yahoo.com this should be worth listening to. One of shockers that I think I am seeing is the magnitude of the losses on a per loan basis. I am in the process of looking at a selection of loans in default, as well as loans that have already been foreclosed upon to see if I can determine the percentage loss. Right now, I am of the opinion that the reserves set aside by HRB, IMH, LEND, FMT, FHN (all recently in the news) are inadequate, but I will have a much better idea when I am done. What surprised me today was that I read 45-50% of all subprime loans were originated in two states - CA and FL.
