ParticipantI’ll go on record in agreement. I think they will weather the liquidity crunch. They’ll remain pretty beaten down as the fallout from the housing decline continues to make itself truly felt (they’ll probably require big layoffs and a reorganization to “right size” their business), but I don’t see them going bankrupt.
This board has some definite biases that always have to be remembered. If you look at the prices of credit default swaps on CFC, they have gotten much more expensive, but they are still placing the odds of bankruptcy as remote.

ParticipantObviously you didn’t see the news release this morning. They’re buying time at this point. It’s just a matter of whether BC will come before my Sept. Puts expire or will I have to buy some Octobers. It’s all happening much quicker than I though it would.

August 16, 2007 at 7:31 AM #76209ParticipantHadn’t seen that yet-think it came out within a few minutes of my post.
I’ve walked the plank now…still think they’ll weather it (options still not pricing in real high odds of BK, TBTF, liquidity will ease up), but I wouldn’t seek a loan from them at the moment:)

August 16, 2007 at 7:45 AM #76218ParticipantThat last post says it all. Only conforming means pretty much all 80-90% of the business they’ve been doing the last couple of years is gone. Couple that with having so many REOs on the books (many more to come!) and having to deal with the paper coming back they will be BK within 2 months and likely right about 1 month from now.
