Job Losses Aggravating the Crisis of Foreclosures (Part II)
2009-09-22 15:32:00 The prime loans mortgages are regarded as less hazardous to the subprime loans that are considered to be responsible for majority of people going homeless as they failed to repay their debts and unemployment added to their miseries. Richard K. Green, the ‘director of the University of Southern California Lusk Center for Real Estate’ observed that, “When people live in a housing market that’s dropped 30 or 40 percent, and they lose their jobs, that’s a recipe for default.” Approximately 4.3% of the homes in the U.S. were foreclosed during the second quarter. This indicates the foreclosure of at least one in 25 homes in the U.S. In the last three decades this is the maximum with overdue of loans by almost 90 days. This is the point which marks the beginning of the foreclosure proceedings. The number increased by 7.97% and this is the highest according to the record. The RealtyTrac survey conducted in Michigan, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Georgia and Illinois is recogniz...
Job Losses Aggravating the Crisis of Foreclosures (Part I)
2009-09-21 12:52:00 Presently the filings of foreclosures in the U.S. have crossed approximately 300,000 for the 6th month at a stretch. This is primarily the result of the increasing rate of unemployment that has prevented the homeowners from paying their debts. The number of properties receiving an auction notice figured to at least 358,471. Compared to last year’s records this is almost 18% higher. There were at least one out of 357 properties which received a foreclosure filing. Compared to last year the foreclosures increased as more companies cut down on 216,000 workers in the previous month. This added to the rate of unemployment by 9.7% as observed by the Labor Department. According to Morris A. Davis, who is an assistant real-estate professor at the Wisconsin School of Business, this unemployment scenario has superseded the efforts of the government or the banks to control foreclosures. Davis observed, “The foreclosure numbers are largely unemployment related. As long as 15 million A...

When Losses Are Good
2009-04-03 17:07:00 Last night the Cavs lost a game they should have won against the Wizards. The Cavs really didn't play well all game and they deserved to lose. This is a great teaching opportunity for the coaches. That's why some losses are good and some wins are bad.Examples of good losses: Cavs lost to Wizards; Lakers fall to the Bobcats.Why they're good: While any loss isn't good, coaches get to tell you what went wrong. In the Cavs case, they just didn't get up for the game. This will help the coaches figure out when they need to pick up their intensity and keep the Cavs focused on winning games they're supposed to win. It's all a build up to being a title contender.In the Lakers case, they were out worked for a large part of the game. Then they can work on defense rebounding and getting into the triangle more in practice. It also allows the coaching staff to see what match ups fluster their team and plan on how to combat those difficulties.Also something that occasionally happens are bad...

Job Losses Hit 25 Year High
2009-03-07 00:33:00 The U.S. unemployment rate rose to a 25-year high of 8.1 percent in February as employers, buckling under the strain of a severe recession, axed 651,000 jobs, government data showed on Friday. Adding to the gloom, a combined 161,000 more jobs were lost in January and December than previously believed, the U.S. Labor Department said in its monthly nonfarm payrolls report. Since the recession started in December 2007, the economy has shed 4.4 million jobs, with more than half of that number lost in the last four months alone. A total of 12.5 million people were unemployed in February, the Labor Department said.Consumer borrowing rose unexpectedly in January after three months of declines, but the small increase did not shake economists' views that borrowing will remain weak this year as mass layoffs persist amid the recession. The Federal Reserve said Friday that borrowing increased at an annual rate of $1.76 billion in the first month of the year. Economists expected borrowing to de...

Pimco’s Gross sees Fannie/Freddie rescue limiting housing losses
2008-09-08 00:50:00 Bond guru Bill Gross at Pimco, who’s Newport Beach trading team has come as close as anybody in calling the housing debacle, says that the government rescue of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should shave housing losses. Gross, whose company manages $800 billion in fixed-income assets, says it’s too to early to call a bottom to a horrific housing debacle that’s shaved 15 percent or more off home values nationwide — losses that led to Fannie and Freddie’s downfall. (Vote: Will this bailout help O.C. housing? CLICK HERE!) “Nobody knows,” Gross says when asked if we’re near a bottom, “and that’s part of the problem.” Still, the bold government moves — announced Sunday, DETAILS HERE! — to shore up the twin mortgage giants’ finances – allowing Treasury cash to essentially help lower loan rates – is “definitely an improvement,” he says. Before Sunday, Gross says his guess is that the home market might have had as much as 15 percent m...
Three Losses, Three Days..

Things got so bad at times watching on MASN, I just turned off the TV and walked away only to see things get worse.At this point of the season, have the Orioles started their swoon?

Ford losses 8.7 Billion - and accelerates transformation plans
2008-07-24 16:05:00 Ford announced an enormous loss today for the 2nd quarter. The loss was larger than expected at $8.7B. Ford also announced that it is accelerating the move to small cars by stating that a total of 6 small vehicles form Europe would be manufactured in the Americas for our market. Only 3 of the vehicles were named: Fiesta, Focus, and Transit and these three had already all been announced. Two of the remaining three will probably be crossovers, and the third is speculated to be the Mondeo. However, the Mondeo overlaps with the Fusion - so how Ford will work this out remains to be seen. An updated Fusion will also come out next year, with enhanced engines and a hybrid powerplant for the first time. Past examples of European Fords brought to North America were all de-contented from their European counterparts. The European Mondeo for example, was an up-market product in Europe but was de-contented for North America as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique. Now that small cars are impor...

2008-06-06 06:20:00 Airlines start exiting routes to cut losses - Singapore Qantas cuts capacity on Asian routes; SIA studies its options By VEN SREENIVASAN (SINGAPORE) Faced with the prospect of plunging earnings amid soaring fuel prices and flattish revenue growth, many airlines are cutting capacity and exiting routes. Mr Dixon: The rising cost of fuel has changed the way Qantas will have to do business over the next two years Qantas is just the latest to join a growing line of carriers which are exiting routes, sizing down capacity or just parking planes as oil stays stubbornly above the US$125 per barrel level, and threatens to rise even further.
