"The Federal Housing Authority will put $300 billion to work to help homeowners with exotic loans and that will put a bottom in housing"

So who eats the difference in the market value of the house and the outstanding loan??? Or how will folks who could barely pay the teaser rate all of a sudden afford to pay an amortized
rate?

That's better. I'm always uncomfortable being on the same side of a trade as Creamer.

So, let me see if I've got this right. We've had the biggest credit bubble in history, and now that Indymac has failed, the worst news is factored in, and the bottom is in. The $300B rescue is going to miraculously save the thousands of banks drowning in bad loans.

Ah yes, now I see. We're SABED!!!

Did they tell the public yet about the 5 year option arm financial nuclear bombs that will start blowing through 2011? I read it will create about 11 million more foreclosures. Almost all of those folks are in negative equity, they're trapped, facing mortgage re-sets that will likely double and triple their payments. I suspect they will all walk away. therealestatebloggers.com
