Will Homeowners Sink or Swim?
But as the rising tide of mortgage debt grows, many of those homeowners will unfortunately sink, drowning in foreclosure red ink. For the thousands of homeowners who jumped into turbulent housing waters via these easy-to-qualify-for loans, they are now succumbing to a riptide of bad news. The next big wave of news may be a true real-estate slump, as hundreds of billions in adjustable-rate mortgages reset, making it even more difficult for homeowners in depressed markets to meet higher monthly payments.

The problem is, in Tuesday’s press release the Fed noted the slowing growth rate of the national economy, directly commenting on “the gradual cooling of the housing market and the lagged effects of increases in interest rates and energy prices.” Alan Greenspan started directing this movie more than two years ago when he made the first of 17 consecutive edits (so-called “adjustments”) to interest rates, raising them 25 basis points each.
