ARM'd and Dangerous?
Jonathans question reflects a popular bias these days towardsdirectly linking the rising foreclosure rates to default rates onsome of the higher risk loans that have become increasingly popular -ARMs, interest only, negative amortization, etc. Under "normal" circumstances, wedprobably look at the Midwest rates and chalk them up tohigher-than-average unemployment rates (a very strong predictor offoreclosure rates) and lower-than-average house appreciation ratescoupled with weak housing demand. Another nice post from Jonathan Miller on his Matrix blog, "Foreclose Already So We Can Get Back To Normal" ( http://matrix.millersamuel.com/?p=568
