INVESTMENT BANKS LIES IN BLACK & WHITE

From Mr. Mortgage:


this is a killer. Below are write-down covering all categories including subprime. We know full well these are a SMALL FRACTION of what lies ahead. Wells Fargo is not even on the list despite owning $84 BILLION in Home Equity lines/loans that are presently worth pennies on the dollar. Look at Lehman! Haha. Look at Chase...they have more Home Equity Lines/Loans than Wells Fargo. So does Bank of America. Funny, the CNBC crowd was pushing that it was the 'kitchen sink quarter' just like they tried to do in Q3. -Best, Mr Mortgage
