And their ads are still up and running on the TV. No panic at DiTech.

OK, I don't usually defend lenders, but DITECH is a CONVENTIONAL mortgage lender and not a subprime lender. I know their cheesy adds used to convey that message (the new ones are more sedate) but the worst mortgages they made were high quality Alt-A loans. There is a good article about them in an August BusinessWeek magazine where they admit they have a bad, and undeserved, rep. BTW they are owned by GMAC.

"...and you can be confident that you're being taken care of every step of the way."

I'll say. Kind of like how the mob takes care of its enemies. I love the name too: the (Goodbye) Freedom Loan.

Hey, where's the Housing Panic post about this week's market action?

According to the Fox Business Block this morning, the DOW gained 2.8% this week. BUT what they failed to mention was how much value the greenback lost. That's where HP should've been as a public service: showing the DOW gain of this week in REAL (USDollar index) terms.

For extra credit HP could plot this week's DOW gain vs. gold. Now there's something a homeowner trapped in a depreciating asset in a society with a depreciating currency doesn't want to acknowledge. Sorry senor dopes!

DOW = 30 large multinational corporations that mostly produce their goods outside of the USA

Is it a good indicator of the US economy?

The US has shipped those low paying manufacturing jobs overseas for high paying service sector jobs like WalMart greeters and burger flippers. Haven't you noticed how much less debt Americans are carring these days?

What I see in the future is that mortgages cease to be "asset backed" collateral. Rather, a mortgage just becomes a giant lien against your life as you know it, like a student loan.
