Fed Frets About Commercial Real Estate

A real risk for the economy in 2010: the more than half of the $3.4 trillion outstanding commercial real estate loans, many of which will be souring in the coming year. A rerun of what happened in the residential mortgage is expected. A Fed document prepared by the Fed's Rapid Response program and presented Sept 29 by K.C. Conway points to the dangers to bank's with heavy commercial real estate exposure. THis will further constrict lending as banks fold and remaining banks are forced to set aside money for additional losses. At this time banks are simply extending the loans and paying the interest on these loans to themselves. A study of regulatory filings of 800 banks by the WSJ shows that banks with large exposure have set aside only 38 cents in reserves in the second quarter for every $1 in bad loans, a decline from $1.58 in reserves for every $1 of bad loans from the beginning of 2007. Conway's report presents ableak picture for 2010, with commercial real estate losses for warehouses, apartment buildings and office buildings reaching 45%.

10/01/2009
Incrementally withdrawing support where and when possible will be a tough act for the Fed, after the Fed has committed $1 trillion so far as support to debt securtization markets that breathe life into the USA economy. Shiller says these markets are dead, we are stuck, and no one knows what will happen if they are hobbled for corporate real estate, mortgages, auto loans.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
