Dear CIGAs,

It has been called foreclosure gate, robo signing, foreclosure fraud or just sloppy paperwork; but no matter what you call it, it’s signaling a new financial meltdown for the U.S. economy.  The securitized mortgage debt created in the real estate bubble is being called the “largest

Dear CIGAs,

This weekend, Bank of America became the latest lender to delay all foreclosures in 23 states because of possible problems with the necessary documents needed to repossess a home.  GMAC Mortgage and JP Morgan Chase have had similar problems recently with documents that prove the bank

Irrational Exuberance to Unusually Uncertain

Dear CIGAs,

Dear CIGAs,

Both the House of Representatives and the Senate have passed their versions of financial reform legislation.  Now, the process of reconciliation takes place between both bodies of Congress to iron out a final bill the President can sign into law.  There is plenty in the bill such as new consumer protection,
