New Year’s Resolution For S&P To Consider: Properly Rate A Security For The First Time

By

Just one, not all. Start small.

Standard & Poor’s said it may downgrade 1,196 securities tied to U.S. residential mortgages after it “incorrectly analyzed” the debt in light of the securitizations’ actual structures. The bonds were created mostly this year in 129 transactions called re-remics, which are formed by repackaging existing home- loan securities, New York-based S&P said today in a statement.

    Please be advised that due diligence will not be required. Our accounts are true and properly reflect our cash position. I consider it an insult should you feel otherwise.

    I think this is a good idea. We’ll start by downgrading Moody’s.
