barnaby33ParticipantAt this point unless you are already loaded up shorting say XLF isn’t a great idea. I’d say shorting individual financials makes more sense. LEH and C are good candidates. To me C is a short to zero, or at least single digits. The easy money shorting XLF was made last year.
Rather than waiting for a cataclysmic event, short or buy puts into the Fed interest rate induced rallies then cover on the way down.
When the Fed has cut to one percent, thats your pre-cataclysm warning. The next shock should be quite severe.

barnaby33ParticipantAlmost seems like a typo, 40% of all listings are short sales, wow. Looks like it took 3 months to go from 30% to 40%. It also looks like linear growth. By June short sales should be the majority. 6-9 months after that REO should be the majority.

barnaby33Participant20k hardly would be worth flipping once you figure in commissions and taxes. Actually its funny if you take 340k and multiply by 6% you get 20.4 Add that to 340 and you get 360.4. Sounds like the bank is selling for exactly what they tool it back for plus commissions.
