I used to counteract this doing CFDs until the law in TX made that a less attractive option.

In options there are also complicated variables like time decay and implied volatility that will effect the effectiveness of your hedge.

Many of the negative ones will stick for a while so they are not easy to counteract once they are on the report.2.

We'll see investors come to us that are trying to dump deals that they bought in batches of 10 that are now, vacant, vandalized, and decaying.

The question is: Is the future cash flow high enough to counter act today's lower cash flow and by how much and at what opportunity cost?

This is just a hunch, but i think they had a big board meeting when they were nearing there target reserve levels to initiate release and it went: "well boys n girls, we will have the reserves built next week to start dumping these reo's, but know what, our lobbiests rocked and got us all the money we could ever need, and I'm loving these reserve numbers, screw it, lets invest these reserves and make MORE, and just trickle those reo's out until values make it worth our while to dump em" "but sir, what if these decaying assets start costing us, in Michigan we have to tear them down?"

Please let me know your thoughts, and possible counter actions I can take.

We renovated the properties and the cove completely redoing the properties themselves and adding fences to cut off walkways and cut-throughs from other neighborhoods and apartments, planting trees, shrubs and flowers, painting the brick to bring vibrant colors and generally raised the "look" of this area from urban decay to urban renewal.

I promise from the bottom of my heart to do..absolutely nothing..so as not to exacerbate an already dangerous and decaying situation with more political maneuverings and shenanigans.And what's more I promise to do nothing for my entire term in office.

In 50 years, I think Phoenix will look like a shanty town with all these wood-framed stucco track homes decaying underneath the blazing sun.
