An business partner of mine, who works for a large investment bank, wrote to me and said, “Investors are literally buying thousands upon thousands of puts to bet on its demise - keep in mind every thousand puts is equivalent to 100K shares of stock - I have seen about 100K puts change hands myself - that's 10 million shares.”
As I have said in the past, although few of us really like and enjoy working with Countrywide, they are indeed the “canary in the coal mine” for our industry, always trading #1 & #2 with Wells Fargo, and one must wonder if CFC does have to go Chapter 11, what are the implications?

I've found this very sad, although I am one to take advantage of the foreclosures in the market as an investor I was looking at the newly reported notice of defaults in my area today and was not surprised but sad to see THREE associates of mine on the list. One of course was in the mortgage business and the others are also associates that I do business with. I would do what I could to help out if there was some equity in the properties.
I don't see an end to this madness any time soon!

Should we expect our government to step in on the current foreclosure crisis? Or should we simply let the markets and capitalism work the problem out on it's own? Many believe that the government should step in however I'm curious as to what they really CAN do! Personally if think the current administration is simply speaking for the sake of telling people what they would like to hear.
The fact is that our government has been unable to successfully manage any big task. What are your thoughts on the government stepping in? No matter what they do I say it will be interesting to watch the attempt.
