| “The Giant Elephant In The Room” Posted: 21 Sep 2010 09:02 AM PDT What is holding back our economy? Why isn't there more credit available in our banking system?
I have answered these questions numerous times over the last two years BUT many in Washington pretend not to know the answer and pander to their constituencies in the process. Regular readers of Sense on Cents are well aware that the books of our banks–especially our largest money center banks–remain chock-filled with loans that are being valued far in excess of what they are truly worth. Let's navigate. I first addressed issues within the second mortgage and HELOC (home equity line of credit) space in Fall of 2008 (Sense on Cents/Second Mortgages). Here we are a full two years later and America still has not received a straight answer and a full accounting by the banks or their regulators as to this "sinkhole" on their books and in our economy. Let's dive into this hole, get a little dirty, and again expose the issues within this sector. While there are many issues holding back our economy, in my opinion, there are none greater than the issues surrounding these embedded losses. High five to American Banker for highlighting these issues and to 12th Street Capital for bringing the commentary to my attention.

| Posted: 21 Sep 2010 08:18 AM PDT Housing Starts surged in August, but the good news is probably better toasted with Miller than with Moet.

However, that was from July starts that were revised down to a rate of just 541,000 rather than the original 546,000. Also, almost all of the increase can be traced to the extremely volatile apartment and condo part of the housing market. Single family starts, which is … [visit site to read more]
