Running for the exit

Commercial Real Estate is the next ship to sink. And it’s coming, fast and furious. Banks still try to ditch the hole, but the delinquent loans become so numerous that somehow this thing will implode.

The Mortgage Bankers Association lifted its forecast for 2009 home-loan originations by $800 billion to $2.78 trillion (the fourth-highest ever) as "a wave of refinancing and low interest rates spur homeowners to seek out new loans."
