XII Views on Sub-prime
I
The Fed before:
Speaking of legacy, what a retirement party!
Here have another drink.
II
The Huckster:
Hey buddy, have I got a deal for you.
Who wouldn't want to live in this house?
No money down, a year interest free same as cash.
III
Hedonistic:
Party's over, dude. Stick it with a fork,
Where's the door.
IV
Investment Banks Before:
It wasn't me.
It was him. And it was him.
V
Fraudulent underwriter with mortgagee:
PLEASE, SIR, IT'S NOT LIKE IT LOOKS!!
She told me she was single!
VI
SIVs [Structured Investment Vehicles ]:
Where did that come from!?
I was just cruising slowly through the School Zone
Then BAAM.
VII
Investment Banks After:
Now how do we add another layer on this cake
And cut a bigger piece for me?
VIII
The New Fed:
Watch the interest rates swing back and forth.
You are getting sleepy, sleepy...
IX
The Vultures:
I Love Circling Around and Around Looking, Looking
Not for corpses, but for the best place at the best table?
X
Politicians to Public:
Come in from woods. My dear child, I will comfort you.
My what big teeth you have Grandma.
XI
The Media:
Classic example of capitalistic greed
And why US is going to fail.
XII
The Doomsdayist:
I told you it was coming. Didn't I tell you?
Want in? I am still waiting to make the real score,
Need right entry point, then next day, to the MOON!
13
The Public:
Why? Oh, why does it always happen to me?
Left holding the bag again!

Subprime mortgage meltdown CDO MBS

Brokers pure and good abound
Great thought process. Makes you feel like you felt a “real world” timeline and the underlying thoughts of each party. Now just transfer this same process into the “market reactions” to each.
CNBC:
Buy Buy Buy!
Sell Sell Sell!
We told you so.
