I wonder how the phenomenon of depreciating collateral is handled. Autos and residential RE would seem to fall in that category, although the auto depreciation is more predictable to be sure.

August 22, 2007 at 4:49 PM #79424eyePodParticipantOne big difference is that credit card debt is HIGHLY profitable. I don’t think it would be so simple if suddenly there was a 200% spike in people failing to pay their bill. That is what is happening in mortgages right now.

Yes; In the upside down world of financial engineering, debt is asset. Your continued indebtedness IS the collateral. Almost like slave trade!

How big is the ABS market?
Just looking at the fall out from a small portion of homeowners not paying there mortgages. I guess if people really wanted a revolution they should just stop paying their bills all at once. That would shake things up…
