Interesting graph HappySqurriel. If I'm reading it right by the end of 2010 there will be an additional $700 billion in losses. The banks can't survive that without a new capital injection (which was known anyway, since the banks are capitalized assuming 8-9% unemployment, I forget the exact number).

By the way, that graph doesn't include the commercial property loans, right?

That is correct, the graph is strictly focused on losses from mortgages and doesn't include things like credit cards, car loans, and other forms of debt.
