I was completely blown away when I watched The Big Short. it seems almost surreal that such financial instruments even exist. you are not investing in something physical, you are literally investing in the confidence of people paying, you make money when others simply honour their commitments. Human Imagination is scary.
I've watched a few videos about this subject, and yes I understood the basics and the background, but man your explanation was as simple and sharp as it gets. Very well done! I had no way of leaving this video without subscribing.
Basically , mortgage rates have reached their highest point since 1998, spanning 25 years. Considering inflation trends, there's potential for them to rise even further. Just a year ago, a 28year fixed rate was only 6%. This prompts the question: should I wait for a housing market downturn before buying or shift my focus towards the equity market?
I think investing was simpler in the 70s, but it's more complex now. Those consistently profiting today are usually professionals. That's why I've had an advisor for 7 years to steadily grow my retirement portfolio.

Best explanation on the 2008 crash and the different components that lead to and impacted the crash. I needed to explain this to someone and was looking for a simplified way to explain all of it. Now, I can just share this video with them.
Great job with the video, breaking it down and giving right examples. I had about 20% understanding of what happened but now I think I am at 75%. Thanks!
Having watched several videos about MBS, I think this video is one of the best. The detailed explanation about MBS, CDO Collateralized Debt Obligations and Credit Default SWAPS is great!
I never comment on videos, but I've watched about 100 videos on this understanding nothing, while you sir just made me understand the whole movie in 20 minutes! KUDOS!
This video was well- explained and well-thought. I have learned a lot in a short video, plus your sequence of your explanations were clear and made perfect sense throughout. I salute you for a video well done!!!
Seriously even I'm here after watching the movie Big Short, as I'm not from US, I couldn't understand most of the financial terms used in the movie, but now I know what MSB is all about, thanks to you.
It wouldn't be justified if i dont drop this comment. I've seen several videos on this topic. But this video's explanation is mind blowing. Crystal clear and pitch n perfect. Thank you very much. You're great. Hats off to you.
If I understand the 2008 crisis correctly, the same banks who made the bad loans (and got them rated triple A) also bought CDS on those mortgages. It was a double swindle. Not only did they knowingly make and sell terrible loans and lie about it, they also bet against their own product (the MBS) by buying CDS.
Not exactly. The big investment banks buy those bad loans (subprime mortgages) from the mortgage lenders, package them into MBS, and sell them to investors (mostly institutional investors). Then they take out CDS against those MBS.
Amazing, clear and concise explanation! Many people are blaming MBS's and CDS's for the 2008 financial crisis, but do you think the crisis could have been avoided if the rating agencies rated the MBS's correctly such that the CDS's for senior tranches would be priced higher to reflect the increased risk?
Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.
If anything, it'll get worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.
Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes.If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.

Thank you for giving insight wheb you said the credit default swaps "Short" the market. In the next statement, you now explain what that means. Nobody ever explains "shorting" means. Thanks for keeping it really down to earth.❤❤❤
Ur just amazing you helped me alot with my homework and with understanding the big short ...keep ''learning things'' as u love to do and keep informing the new students with you amazing summaries ..Regards from middle east
@@ConcerningReality I'm Trainer too, and I was surprised to see most of the story i created for my presentation at work is the same.. Infact the way how you connected the entire story is amazing... Appreciate it... Looking forward to more such financial jargons used, explained beautifully with stories... Kudos!
Great explanation. However, you left out the fact that it wasn't just the banks that loosened their guidelines to make more money; the government forced them to loosen guidelines to allow lower income ppl obtain loans. This produced a massive amount of risky mortgages. There was blame all around.
Great explanation! It would be great if you could talk about some of the other issues around mortgagees, around MBSs, CDOs and CDS's. a) Who ends up keeping track of (servicing) mortgages and making sure the right people are getting paid? This sounds trivial but it seems like it could become increasingly complex and expensive. When the mortgages are securitized and chopped up, etc., how can they keep all this straight? And who keeps all this straight? b) In the Big Short, they kept saying "and then the entire [bond/CDO] goes to zero." What does this mean if there are still mortgages that are not in default (which was how you showed it in this video)? c) Not explained here, but in the Big Short they talked about "synthetic CDOs" as side bets on CDOs, etc. Whose money funded those side bets? How did this affect financial markets, perhaps globally? d) Not explained here, what about the insurers who (I guess) were selling the CDSs (or buying the other side of CDSs sold by the banks)? And reinsurers. How did this work in reality? (Personal note: I lost a ton of money because I was holding the bluest or bluechip stocks at the time - AIG.)
So, institutions and organizations bought securities which were backed on the assumption that housing prices would have kept increasing while homeowners would be able to pay for their homes. So they basically played a bet on people buying homes for profits. If that isn't ethical business conduct, I don't know what is. This is a great video, and more people need to understand what happened in 2008 because they would understand just how greedy businesses can become for profits and revenue.
It's crazy. I'm learning all about this to buy my first investment property but the more I look into things the more I realize we are trending into another crash.
I am not based in US but I remember the 2008 crisis. That was the year I married. I never understood how it happened. This really made it easy to understand. Thanks
help me understand this.. if borrower were not actually able to pay back their loan, then mbs investor had to suffer,, but they had the security in their hand,, couldn't they just sell the mortgage?
I paid up all my mortgages in 2yrs while working with a Financial Adviser. I’m 50 and my husband 54 we are both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debts. We got to realize that the secret to financial freedom is making better investments.

well done dude,now i can understand it,i was confused when i watch the big short for the first time due to its complex terms.
Thanks! Me too, I try to make videos about things I want to learn better, in hopes that it benefits other people too!
Same thanks for making this video
This video is like a compulsory trailer for The Big Short, and I really glad that I've watched this before seeing the movie
As concise as possible, given the complexity... Clearly explained. Great video!
Thank you! It’s crazy that it takes 20 minutes to break down one of the simpler forms of financial securities 🤣

The stock market follows a similar pattern, in order to sustain profits, it's crucial to possess a deep understanding of the market.
I think investing was simpler in the 70s, but it's more complex now. Those consistently profiting today are usually professionals. That's why I've had an advisor for 7 years to steadily grow my retirement portfolio.

Correct! Pretty crazy.
Actually you don't know it correctly if you think big banks make bad loans all on their own.
Not exactly.

Finally I understood MBS, think you
Very accurate and clear
WELL EXPLAINED, TY
This stuff is so confusing to understand, so I wish I saw this video first! Now I gotta watch the big short again to REALLY understand it.
wow god bless you
This video deserves to be standard course in schools
very very well said
Thank you for making this video. Now I understand the bigger picture of MBS. Again thank you 💯💯💯

Thanks Bade Bhai for clearing the very basic of MBS and CDO. Its time for me to re-watch Big Short, Margin Call, Inside Job. Thanks Again. Keep Going.

Excellent
