FBR: F*cked Beyond Repair


Are any former FNLC'ers still holding on to their FBR stocks? Might as well claim them as a loss for tax purposes:




ARLINGTON, Va., Nov. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Friedman, Billings, Ramsey Group, Inc. (FBR Group) (NYSE: FBR ) today announced that on November 4, 2008, it was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that it was not in compliance with an NYSE continued listing standard in that the average price of its stock had fallen below $1.00 per share for a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

FBR Group intends to cure the deficiency and is exploring alternatives for curing the deficiency and restoring compliance with this continued listing standard. Under NYSE rules, FBR Group has six months from the date of the NYSE notice to do so.

FBR Group's common stock remains listed on the NYSE under the symbol FBR, but will be assigned a ".BC" indicator by the NYSE until compliance has been restored.

FBR Group's business operations, Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, credit agreements, other debt obligations and its subsidiaries, including FBR Capital Markets Corporation (FBR Capital Markets) (Nasdaq: FBCM), are unaffected by this notification. FBR Capital Markets is a separately traded and managed public company.

Friedman, Billings, Ramsey Group, Inc. (NYSE: FBR) invests in mortgage-related assets and merchant banking opportunities. FBR is headquartered in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. For more information, please visit http://www.fbr.com/.
Wow - I wonder how money much Daddy and the Juniors lost thanks to their former corporate parents!

So, What Does RPM Oversight Do?

RPM Oversight (can you believe anybody would actually use the word "oversight" in the name of a financial management company?) must be a very dynamic company - they've already changed their "what we do" statement on their web site to the following:

RPM Oversight assists our clients with:
  • Portfolio sales
  • Portfolio purchases
  • Portfolio oversight and reviews
  • Servicer oversight and reviews
RPM Oversight thoroughly reviews and assesses the documentation, compliance, property value, and servicing records of every loan in every portfolio we manage.

Looks like, upon further review, their original "what we do" statement had too many holes (facts) to fill.

By the way - I'm really loving the dead link to "Click here to see case studies detailing RPM's successes" on the homepage. What, you don't have any successes yet? How much you wanna bet that the first successes they have listed will be for Daddy, Junior, OtherJunior or any of their cronies?
