I really like the post by the guy in the securities market - I never considered the market effect of defaults, calling of loans, etc. It could rock the industry, but that’s a whole different matter (but one well worth considering as well)

That was my point, albeit not stated very well, you are understating the math from PWCC's point of view a little. They don't have to do quite as much volume as you say because they profit on some collateral.
