Yeah, Wells was doing a ****load of mortgages the last few years. In that environment, they had to be competitive to get the volume. In being competitive, they were NOT conservative. I don't even need to know the details on that.

I agree with the electronic systems hiccup in August. Even a two-bit industrial plant has redundancy and firewalls in place to ensure that such interruptions are near impossible. A major bank nationwide bank.....?

One of my biggest put positions is WFC.
