Wall Street debut is a weekly series that focuses on the most interesting stories about Wall Street in the United States. Since 2009, the series has focused on the stories of how the financial sector has become increasingly more complex and how it has impacted the everyday lives of Americans.
The latest installment of this monthly series features a story about how the financial sector has become increasingly more complex and has impacted the everyday lives of Americans.
The story is about AIG, the insurance corporation that collapsed in 2008 after it over-predicted the impact of the subprime mortgage market. Like AIG before it, Wall Street is now responsible for another crisis, this time in the housing market. Since 2008, the mortgage giants have had record profits and they’re only getting more aggressive in their bid to make sure you can’t lose your house.
Wall Street is a business and they’re not exactly going to stop at just one crisis. For example, like AIG, they’re now also under fire for the housing market. Like AIG they over-predicted the impact of the subprime loan market and tried to make sure everyone would have the same home. But like AIG they also over-predicted the rise in foreclosures and the home price crash.
Yes, the banks will probably try to stop people from moving out of their homes to save on their losses, but they will also try to force people into more expensive homes. A lot of people who are buying homes for the first time are buying a home that is a small fraction of their home equity. If they don’t buy a house that will need a large down payment, they’ll end up paying a lot more for a house with a lower down payment.
My partner and I are starting to see the foreclosure crisis coming. In the past few months we’ve been watching the number of foreclosures fall to the lowest level in the last ten years. The price of homes has fallen by a third, the number of homes on the market fell by a third. We’ve also been seeing the number of homeowners who have already defaulting on their mortgage go up.
Many people are now saying that the foreclosures are a sign that the economy is tanking. And while many are blaming the economy, others are saying the foreclosures are proof that the banks can afford to pay more for their mortgages. It makes me wonder if the banks had enough leverage to get the interest rate low enough to save them this year.
The banks, in order to make it through the recent economic crisis, needed to take away the money from the mortgages they were going under. The banks had to offer the mortgages at a higher interest rate to make money, and the banks had to keep the interest rate low enough to make enough to keep the banks alive, but they had to do it at the same time that the economy was tanking, which means they had to be able to pay more for their mortgages.
Now, to make it all work, the banks had to keep the interest rate low enough for the rate of return to match the return they were taking out of the loans. So while it looks like the banks are getting a huge profit on their mortgages, it’s actually the opposite. It’s not that the banks aren’t paying their mortgage interest rates, it’s that they’re paying too much.
In other words, it looks like the banks are getting a huge profit on their mortgages, but its actually the opposite. Its not that the banks arent paying their mortgage interest rates, its that theyre paying too much. To fix the problem, the banks have to make their mortgages cheaper and lower their interest rates, which sounds good for consumers but really makes the banks a lot less solvent.
