Recent news posted stating that JP Morgan was hiring 1200 loan officers at locations all across the nation. In case you did not know who they are, they are the Wall Street bankers who acquired WAMU to get out from under several billion dollars worth of tax money they owe to the government. Does that jog your memory? Pretty sure it helped out.
JP Morgan also purchases the fallen Wall Street foe, Bear Stearns, after Bear was rejected for bailout fund by former Goldman Sachs head Ben Bernanke and his crony, Hank Paulson.
JP’s main strategy states that the new loan officers will be strategically placed across the nation and will work from local loan hubs and banks. The part that escapes me is the rationale behind hiring at the point in the economy. The reasoning that JP Morgan has provided for the hiring is to be in the best position to offer the highest quality of service to people who may want home loans when the real estate market improves. That is not a verbatim quote, but it does convey the point.
All of this leads you to ask exactly what are they seeing that so many other are apparently not seeing? They are hiring when it seems every other business is laying people off? That does not make any sense to me, unless they know something not many other people do.
To get to the heart of the matter, I will make my main point. The largest banks in the U.S., including JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, have been deliberately holding back on funding to create a sense of urgency on the real estate market for buyers and sellers.
As irrational as this decision seems to be, moves like this frequently predicate an unseen change to the vast majority of ignorant and uneducated onlookers, but to the real big players they tend to indicate a possible turn around in the real estate market for our nation!
