A Citigroup unit and the accounting firm Deloitte & Touche were sued by an investor for helping a mortgage company issue $92.4 million in stock 14 weeks before the lender went bankrupt. The four million shares issued by American Home Mortgage Investment have dropped by 99 percent since they were first offered for sale on April 30 at $23.10 each through Citigroup Global Markets.

I found comments about HUD Modernization amusing. The primary purpose of modernization in 2000 was to recapture lost market share when the mortgage bubble was inflating. HUD wanted a bigger piece of the pie.
