Nothing NEW about High-Risk Lending

You may recall my post from early last December, Subprime Mortgage Lenders’ Submerging Share Prices. I featured LEND’s chart then and mentioned NEW, and now I’m featuring NEW’s chart after its recent blow-up. (Go back and read the comments which a reader (and mortgage broker) emailed me at the time.)

No one strictly following the trend on the weekly chart could have been hurt in NEW since it turned down decisively last November — the market gave its verdict on these subprime mortgage lenders many months ago.
