Berkowitz and Cumming are betting big on a turnaround and so am I.

Making loans is easy. Collecting the principal and interest may not be. If the loans they are making are fixed rate and inflation becomes a big problem, then they will be paid back in lower valued US dollars. I don't see much up side to this company.

Accelerating earnings. Pull back is an excellent opportunity.

This dog has fleas. With a potential double-dip, it could be left holding the bag on thousands of defaulted loans. While the poor economy has actually helped this risky lender in used car loans, any drop in economic performance could come back to bite. I have never liked this company's dubious management either.
