Banks like Countrywide and non-banks such as New Century Financial--all financed by Bear Stearns, Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers and others--were in danger of closing, or actually failing. On average, 50 lenders a month were going bust. Chain of Blame will chronicle the disaster, focusing on the players - the executives on Wall Street but also the lenders and brokers. It's a national story of greed and avaraice, one that hasn't come down the pike since the S&L scandal.--From publisher description.MortgagesUnited StatesMortgage loansUnited StatesFinancial crisesUnited StatesStock exchangesUnited StatesMortgagesMortgage loansFinancial crisesStock exchanges332.7/20973Muolo Paul1462889Padilla Mathew1462890MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782130103321Chain of blame3672032UNINA
