GuestBasically it points out that the Prime sector, due to its size and expected stability, is the key driver.
It will be interesting to see just how “prime” those loans are. I heard somebody talk about how some prime loans didn’t have properly documented income. Mortgage brokers would first run the loan through the computer and sometimes the computer would allow a prime loan to be made, without income verification. Then they could make a no-doc loan, and have it be prime as well. I guess we’ll find out if this is a rumor and if it did happen, how often.

ParticipantInterest only.
Neg Am.
FICO score with undocumented income.
Upside down on your loan walk aways.
Unemployment.If the index is lower, great, but it does not mitigate these issues very well.
Alt-A and prime could be the next leg down.

ParticipantPrime, Alt-A, sub-prime are all in the same boat. Too many people paid too much for their shacks. The foreclosure “crisis” isn’t the result of loan types as much as it’s a result of people taking on too much debt so they could pay more than a house was worth (and the non-existent lending standards allowed this).
