    You are talking about two different markets in this comment though:

    1. CLO/MBS securities, some of which contained variable rate mortgages
    2. buying/selling residences

    1 crashed as results of 2 fail, ie people stop trading due to jobs issue.

    Coming back to 2024, we are in only got 2 in play. People are not really buying or selling houses because people don’t get paid enough to justify the current price v monthly expense. Either price goes down or interest. It does not have to be economic doom unless something else fails along with it.
