In this episode, we tell the story of the modern mortgage market, how Wall Street financialized it, and how easy credit inflated one of the biggest bubbles in American history. A bubble that, when it finally popped, nearly brought down the entire global financial system.The housing bubble left scars, changed institutions, and shaped the economy we live in today. It’s impossible to understand the social and economic forces in the 2010s and 2020s without first studying the Global Financial Crisis. At the root of the crisis was a nation-wide housing bubble.In Part 1 of this two-part series, we cover how The New Deal completely restructured the US mortgage industry. We discuss how homeownership became a critical part of the American dream fueled by an abundance of credit and bipartisan support for homeownership—especially after World War II.We touch on the evolution of mortgages—from local banks that relied on personal relationships to global giants driven by the forces of globalization and financial deregulation in the 1980s and 1990s.By the early 2000s, homeownership was at record highs. Credit was cheap. Profits at mortgage originators and banks were at record levels. At the center of the boom was the mortgage market and the flawed assumption that housing prices never go down.Chapters:(01:28) Setting the Scene(03:17) Market Backdrop(10:39) History of Mortgages, Fannie, and Freddie(24:11) Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS)(30:40) MBS and Rating Agencies(43:31) Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Flaws in the Mortgage Market(51:24) Mortgage Originators and Subprime(56:08) The Global Savings Glut, Interest Rates, and Commodity Supercycle(01:06:56) Mortgage Originators Get Big(01:14:41) Fed Policy and Interest Rates(01:19:00) Explosive Growth in Subprime(01:26:20) The Housing Bubble Inflates(01:33:53) State of the Market at the End of 2006References:The Great American Housing Bubble: What Went Wrong and How We Can Protect Ourselves in the Future by Adam J.
