MBS MORNING: Fed President Reminds About Labor Market Weakness
Posted To: MBS Commentary I am kinda bummed no one laughed at my Kathy Ireland reference in MBS OPEN . Her dress was so tight you could see her liver processing the booze (that's a rumor). I suppose I could have poked fun at Sarah Jessica Parker's "Queen of the Nile" get-up. Ugh. You guys are killing me. Is this one of those "you had to be there" jokes? I know I am setting myself up to be mocked because I watched the Oscars...but come on, there is humor in everything we do. (Like I said, I lost control of the remote. Other men: don't pretend you didn't watch. You know what I am talking about here!) Ok I am done pretending I am Perez Hilton. HAHA back to the markets. Chicago Fed President Charles Evans, a middle of the road on inflation non-FOMC voter, shared prepared remarks with...( read more ) Forward this article via email: Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.
Risk Weighted Returns; Warehouse Lending Credit Manager Needed; Subprime Analysts Lost; Bank News
Posted To: The Garrett Watts Report We commented last week how a lot of people didn’t know what HSBC stood for... If you go back to when they bought a bank in Buffalo, New York to established themselves in the U.S. The joke was that HSBC stood for "Holy ____, Buffalo's Cold.” City National Bank (Los Angeles) was in the news for paying off all its TARP money last week, but the real story is how they became L.A.’s prestige bank in the first place. Frank Sinatra’s son was kidnapped on a Friday in 1963, and the singer called up Bank of America, Security Pacific and a few other big banks asking for $240,000 to pay the ransom money. The big banks told him to come in Monday morning and fill out a loan application. When he called City National, Chairman Bram Goldsmith told him “Come down to the...( read more ) Forward this article via email: Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.
The Day Ahead: Stocks Dip on Sovereign Debt Fears Abroad. Treasuries Get Flight to Quality
Posted To: MND NewsWire Equity futures are firmly lower this morning following a mixed session yesterday. The Dow looks to open 31 points lower at 10,507 while futures on the S&P 500 are off 4.25 points to 1,132.75. “The mood in global markets is towards risk aversion with no apparent trigger,” said Benjamin Reitzes from BMO. MND's Adam Quinones says weakness in stocks and the flight to quality into Treasuries is a factor of overnight news from Fitch Ratings that warned against a downgrade of the credit ratings of the United Kingdom, France, and Spain. Confirming that risk isn’t on the table this morning, WTI crude oil is down $1.25 to $80.62 per barrel, and Spot Gold is trading $6.32 lower at $1,117.23. As one would expect, the US dollar is stronger against a broad array of currencies.

Second Mortgages in the Spotlight; Reverse Repurchase Primer; My Opinion on Mortgage Rates After the Fed; Provident Cuts Interest Only
Posted To: Pipeline Press Often I start the commentary off saying something witty, but I couldn't think of anything clever so I thought I'd suggest you take a look at this video about, of all things, seat belts. It is making the rounds, and with good reason. The Federal Reserve has a little more than ten business days to complete their well-publicized purchase of agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS). Last week it bought $10 billion, breaking their 3-week streak of $11 billion. Only fixed-rate agency MBS securities guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are/were eligible assets for the program. Everyone knows that the end of the program is imminent. I am going to go out on a limb here, which is rare for me, and suggest that the consultants, market gurus, bloggers, paid services, etc., who firmly...( read more ) Forward this article via email: Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.
MBA: Servicing Specialists Should Not be Required to Obtain SAFE Act Licensing
Posted To: MND NewsWire The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), American Bankers Association (ABA), and the American Financial Services Association (AFSA) joined with 11 state and local mortgage lending groups on Friday to send a letter to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development expressing concerns about the way in which HUD is proposing to implement the 2008 SAFE Act. The SAFE Act (Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing), was passed in July 2008 as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act. It directs states to adopt licensing and registration requirements for loan originators that meet minimum standards established by the act in lieu of HUD establishing nationwide standards. It also encourages the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) and the American Association of Residential...( read more ) Forward this article via email: Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.
