    JP Morgan Chase to grow its home loan sales force by 60%

    Thank God. There isn’t a loan officer of any kind at my local Chase (formerly Wamu) bank. A single loan officer handles 3 different branches and handles all types of loans, not that they provide many loans anymore.

    Even though they can’t spring for a loan officer at each area branch (until now maybe), they did spend a bunch of money remodeling the inside of the branch from perfectly nice Wamu decor to a sterile Chase decor. Image is everything.

    After reading “What’s holding the stock market up (it’s not the economy)?” I have finally figured out this market rally. The basic plot is the same as in the movie “Weekend at Bernie’s”; Mr. Market really is dead, he is just being propped up and moved around like a puppet so a bunch of losers can continue to enjoy his beach house.
