Recession Busting; The JP Morgan Way!
Saturday, 21. November 2009
JP Morgan apparently is expecting the U.S. economy to turn around fairly soon, because they are in the process of hiring several hundred mortgage officers from all across the country. If you do not quite recall who JP Morgan is, they are the wall street bank who made national and global news by offsetting over 5 billion dollar in their own corporate tax by purchasing then flagging Washington Mutual in one of the largest bank take overs in history.
They also purchased Bear Stearns, the other wall street bank, when they went under and were refused a bailout by the head of the Federal Reserve.
With JP Morgan hiring these loan officers and positioning them across the nation, one is left to wonder why they would be doing this during the greatest recession to hit the globe in at least 25 years. The explanation is that when the real estate market turns around JP Morgan wants to be positioned to best service home loan applicants. With most projections putting a real estate recovery about a year or more out, are they looking at some indicator most of us are missing?
Where are they getting their signals from? The media has only projected more doom and gloom so they must be privy to information that is much more optimistic than what most of us are reading or hearing. With bailout money in their pockets they must be priming the pump for their next big business leap.
To be blunt, the only 2 remaining Wall Street banks have been holding bank the credit industry in order to put in place the perfect rush of business that they will be perfectly positioned to capitalize on. This does come to a staggering cost at the expense of the American consumer and many small businesses.
Given that these kinds of illogical moves are typically seen when the CEO of a company dumps his stock the day before the company goes public with some bad report, we may be seeing the end of a suppressed real estate market very soon!
