The housing crisis is evolving in several ways:
1) Defaults are shifting from subprime loans to prime and Alt-A loans.
2) Defaults are now driven more by job losses and falling home prices than adjustable rate resets.
3) Foreclosures are impacting many more states beyond the original "sand and rust states".
4) Future losses will come from banks' on-balance sheet loans rather than losses from securitized loans marked to market.

NOTE: This chart only shows resets for a small fraction of Alt-A loans, but is representative of all of them.
14. Two Waves of Losses Are Behind Us…
But Three Are Looming
Losses Mostly Behind Us
• Wave #1: Borrowers committing (or the victim of) fraud, as well as
speculators, who defaulted quickly. Timing: beginning in late 2006 (as
soon as home prices started to fall) into 2008. Mostly behind us.
• Wave #2: Mostly subprime borrowers who defaulted when their
mortgages reset due to payment shock. Timing: early 2007 (as two-
year teaser subprime loans written in early 2005 started to reset) to the
present. Now tapering off as low interest rates mitigate payment shock.
Losses Mostly Ahead of Us
• Wave #3: Prime loans (most of which are owned or guaranteed by the
GSEs) defaulting due to job loss and home price declines (i.e.,
underwater homeowners). Timing: started to surge in early 2008 to the
present.
• Wave #4: Jumbo prime, second lien and HELOCs (most of which are
on banks’ books) defaulting due to job loss and home price declines/
underwater homeowners. Timing: started to surge in early 2008 to the
present.
• Wave #5: Losses among loans outside of the housing sector, the
largest of which will be in the $3.5 trillion area of commercial real estate.
Timing: started to surge in early 2008 to the present.
47
15. Why Won’t the System Collapse Again?
Given that the three looming waves are much larger than the two that are mostly behind us, why
won’t they trigger a collapse of our financial system similar to what happened in late 2008?
Answer: Last year’s collapse was triggered in part by the magnitude of the losses, but also
because of the suddenness. Financial institutions can withstand even large losses if they trickle in over
time because they can offset losses each quarter with profits earned during the quarter – but this isn’t
possible if losses are sudden.
The suddenness of last year’s losses was due in part to rapidly rising defaults, especially among
subprime mortgages, but in fact, realized losses were still quite low. The real culprit was the fact that
most subprime loans had been securitized into RMBSs and CDOs, turning them into tradable debt
instruments.
According to GAAP accounting rules, traded instruments like stocks and bonds have to be marked
to market, and in only a few months in 2008, the market price for hundreds of billions of dollars of AAA-
rated RMBS and CDO securities went from close to 100 cents on the dollar to the 20-30 cent range
(even though the underlying pools of mortgages hadn’t yet realized much in the way of losses). This
required every institution holding these securities to immediately book enormous losses, which caused
many of them to collapse.
Why did Merrill Lynch, Citigroup, Lehman and Bear Stearns fall, but Wells Fargo didn’t? Because
Wells had almost nothing on its balance sheet that had to be marked to market.
Big mark to market losses are now behind us, so it’s unlikely that there will be any sudden shocks
to the system. Instead, hundreds of billions of dollars of additional losses from trillions of dollars of bad
loans will be realized over many, many years.
This is both good news and bad news: the good news is that while future losses will surely
bankrupt many banks, especially smaller ones exposed to commercial real estate, they likely won’t
threaten the system because banks are earning so much money currently that most should be able to
outrun their losses.
The bad news is that very high losses will plague our financial system for many years to come –
our best guess is current extremely high levels for another two years, and then slowly declining for three
more years before finally returning to normal levels in five years. This drip torture of high losses every
quarter, year after year, will likely keep banks extremely cautious in their lending, making robust
economic growth unlikely. 48
16. The Housing Crisis is Shifting in a
Number of Ways
First Stage of Collapse Current Stage
1. Subprime & fraudulent loans 1. Prime, Alt-A and other loans to
account for most defaults better borrowers drive defaults
2. Defaults driven by loans 2. Defaults driven by job losses and
resetting underwater mortgages
3. Defaults mainly in sand and rust 3. Defaults occurring across a broad
states swath of the country
4. Mark-to-market losses due to 4. Losses from on-balance-sheet
bad loans being securitized loans (not marked to market)
5. Little government intervention 5. Massive government intervention

18. Foreclosure Filings Have Increased
Dramatically
• 343,638 foreclosure filings during September were down 4% sequentially and up 29% year-over-year.
• 1.2% of all U.S. housing units (one in 84) received at least one foreclosure filing in the first half of this year.

Actual inventory levels are significantly higher due to “shadow inventory.” “As of July, mortgage companies
hadn't begun the foreclosure process on 1.2 million loans that were at least 90 days past due…An
additional 1.5 million seriously delinquent loans were somewhere in the foreclosure process, though the
lender hadn't yet acquired the property…Moreover, there were 217,000 loans where the borrower hadn't
made a payment in at least a year but the lender hadn't begun the foreclosure process. In other words, 17%
of home mortgages that are at least 12 months overdue aren't in foreclosure, up from 8% a year earlier.”

Before concluding that houses are cheap, however, there are three big caveats: first, low rates
are only available to those who qualify for conforming mortgages, which doesn’t help millions of
homeowners or potential homeowners who have spotty credit histories or are underwater on their
16 current mortgages. Second, with low enough interest rates, almost anything looks affordable; if
rates rise, houses won’t look so reasonably priced based on these metrics. Finally, in light of the
severe economic downturn, average income may fall for quite some time.

37. Recent Signs of Stabilization Are Likely
the Mother of All Head Fakes
Rather than representing a true bottom, recent signs of stabilization are likely due to seven factors that
are (or are likely to be) short-term:
1. Ultra-low interest rates
2. The $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers
– This expires on November 30th, but will likely be renewed and perhaps expanded
– Current cost: $1 billion/month
3. More middle- and upper-end homes are being sold (either voluntarily or via foreclosure), which has the effect of
raising the price at which the average home is sold – but more defaults of higher priced homes is very bad news
for mortgage holders
4. A decline in resets (which will ramp up again over the next few years)
5. A temporary reduction in the inventory of foreclosed homes
– There are currently big delays in foreclosures due to four reasons (in descending order of importance): A) Loan modifications via the
HAMP program; B) Political pressure on banks and servicers; C) The system is overwhelmed with the unprecedented volume of
defaulting homeowners; and D) Some banks, weakened by losses, may be motivated to drag out the process so that losses/write-
downs can be delayed, giving them more time to earn their way out of trouble.
– “For now, the delays have led to what is probably a temporary drop in the supply of bank-owned homes in California and other places
where investors and first-time home buyers have been competing for bargains. In Orange County, Calif., the number of bank-owned
homes listed for sale dropped to 322 in early September from 1,404 in November 2008, according to Altera Real Estate. But the
number of foreclosures is expected to increase in the fourth quarter as mortgage-servicing companies determine who is eligible for a
loan modification and who isn't. ‘We are going to see a spike from now to the end of the year in foreclosures as we take people out of
the running’ for a loan modification or other alternatives, says a Bank of America Corp. spokeswoman. ‘Foreclosure sales had dropped
to ‘abnormally low’ levels in response to government efforts to stem foreclosures, she adds.’ – WSJ, 9/23/09
6. The FHA is providing massive support to the housing market, in part by doing extremely risky lending
– FHA’s market share has risen from 2% in 2005 to 23% of all mortgages, in part because of lax lending standards: only 3.5% down for
people with 600 (subprime) FICO scores and 10% down for people with 500 (deep subprime) FICO scores
– Thousands of shady subprime mortgage lenders rebranded themselves and are now doing FHA-backed business. Approved FHA
lenders grew from just over 9,600 at the end of FY07 to nearly 14,000 today, according to HUD
– FHA has very poor systems and controls – there’s not even a Chief Risk Officer!
– It’s no surprise, therefore, that defaults are skyrocketing – 17.9% of all FHA-guaranteed loans are now in some stage of delinquency
– HUD's audit for FY08 (which ended 9/30/08) showed that the FHA capital ratio declined dramatically from 6.4% to 3.0%, but projected
that it would remain above its statutory minimum of 2% going forward – this is highly unlikely
– FHA will likely need additional funding from Congress in the near future – one analyst estimated $54 billion – and a condition of this
might be a requirement of tighter lending standards, in which case it’s highly unlikely that any other lender would step in to fill the gap;
it’s possible, however, that Congress might decide to continue the subsidy to help stabilize the housing market

Rapidly, Reflecting the Spread of Defaults Away From
Smaller Subprime Loans Toward Alt-A and Prime Loans
This Has the Effect of Raising the Average Home Price Reported By Many Data Providers
