  • JPMorgan and the Concentration of Risk [View article]
    HE Loans & Lines are barely 20% writedown. This is insane.

    For example, if you purchased a house in 2003 at $300k and its value went up to $400k and you took out a $50k line of credit life was good. But when that home dropped back down to $300k you now have a HELOC that has no equity behind it.

    These HELOCs are not percentage writedowns, they are 100% writedowns on many of them. To assume only 20% will be written down is nuts.
