Hi Laurie;
If you think or the WSJ thinks that Citi had a bad year.......wait till they report on the first quarter of 2008. We have the National Mortgage Complaint Center & the Corporate Whistle Blower Center & this mess is going to get much, much worse. To include Merrill, WA MU, Countrywide, kind of every one in financials.
Which brings us to why are people buying these stocks? Home builders will not fare any better. And when it comes to mortgage insurers.........they might want to move the risk VP's & Presidents to offices with no windows.
We wonder why Uncle Ben is lowering rates again? Perhaps at some point he will figure out that rate cuts are not helping. We are not looking forward to paying $5.00 per gallon of gas by the summer. Even with the rate cuts, Ben cannot restore 2 trillion+++ in lost US real estate equity. It will take years for that to happen.
What did Wall Street fail to lear from the S & L disaster of the late 1980's?
