If you have a GSAMP securitized loan you might want to pay particular attention here. In fact, if you ever had a securitized loan of any kind you should be very interested. Hudson Mezzanine: The use of the word “mezzanine” is like the use of the word “Trust.” There is no mezzanine and there is […]

Nobody ever thought that returning a lady’s purse to her after a purse snatcher ran away with it was a gift. So why is anyone contesting returning the purse to homeowners who had their lives snatched from them? The baby steps of the Obama administration are frustrating. Larry Summers, Tim Geithner and those who walk […]

In my opinion, the growing anger at Wall Street is giving Lloyd Blankfein and Jamie Dimon another chance at misdirection.

Editor’s Note: The significance of this announcement is that the bondholders, who were insured directly by AMBAC (as opposed to the investment bankers who bought “bets” like credit default swaps) are receiving 25 cents on every dollar they funded as creditors for the funding of loan to homeowners (debtors/ borrowers). This supports and corroborates two […]

“That’s right. Issuers are essentially paying twice for flawed deals that bestowed great riches on the bankers and advisers who sold them. Taxpayers should be outraged, but to be angry you have to be informed — and few taxpayers may even know that the complicated arrangements exist.” Editor’s Note: At some point, it will become […]

Editor’s Note: Looking further down the road, when the Ponzi aspect of the Mortgage Meltdown is fully revealed, it will become obvious that both yield spread premiums and the proceeds of credit default swaps, insurance and federal bailout are subject to claims by homeowners.

Lawsuits like this one have been on the rise as ever more mortgages default. It is no secret that the housing market boom fostered poorly underwritten mortgages, in which it was common that a borrower’s income was inflated or never documented.
