Warehouse lenders facing fallout from industry woes
HousingWire|11 hours ago
Recent bond-rating reports shine a spotlight on the deposit and investment-portfolio shortcomings of two banks offering warehouse lines – Comerica and Western Alliance.
Newly independent Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema has been dishing on her Democratic colleagues during fundraisers in the past year, referring to them as “old dudes … eating Jell-O,” a report says.
The centrist senator — who left the Democratic Party in December — has reportedly pandered to Republican lobbyists and donors at recent events, once earning uproarious laughter for her description of Democrats’ “ridiculous” and “dumb” weekly caucus luncheons.
“Old dudes are eating Jell-O, everyone is talking about how great they are,” Sinema, 46, said earlier this year at a reception in Washington, DC, according to Politico.
“I don’t really need to be there for that. That’s an hour and a half twice a week that I can get back.
Drug deaths spike in SLO County as fentanyl use continues to spread
“It was pretty high,” San Luis Obispo County Sheriff-Coroner Sgt. John McDaniel said of January’s numbers. “(We had a) two- to three-week period where we had almost one a day.”
Critical defects on mortgage applications reached a new high in the third quarter last year, in a period when originations declined steeply and competition heightened, according to a new report from Aces Quality Management.
Findings of material errors committed during underwriting increased for the third quarter in a row, hitting a 2.47% share, which represented a jump of over 40 basis points from 2.05% from the previous three months. In the first quarter, the rate came in at 1.93%.
Deutsche Bank’s credit default swaps (CDS) – a form of insurance for bondholders – shot up above 200 basis points (bps) – the most since early 2019 – from 142 bps just two days ago, based on data from S&P Market Intelligence.
On Thursday, Deutsche CDS had their largest one-day gain on record, based on Refinitiv data.
“Deutsche Bank has been in the spotlight for a while now, in a similar way to how Credit Suisse had been,” Stuart Cole, head macro economist at Equiti Capital, said. “It has gone through various restructurings and changes of leadership in attempts to get it back on a solid footing but so far none of these efforts appear to have really worked.”
