After the bipartisan legislation finally approved the $900 billion rescue bailout, more and more investors from different industries are on the prowl not to miss anything that the government has promised them, more so with the poorer citizens whose properties are at the verge of foreclosures. On the other hand, the stock market news says that there is nothing positive about the outcome of the billion-dollar bailout at this time. Banks are still hesitant to give it a fairer shot by gaining significant losses just for these borrowers to get more money with lower interest rates. Truly, the credit crisis has taken a major toll, but the ripples of its actions still make the market unsteady.

Also, the government might want to insure that the bailout money does not go only to a few rich banks, but toward stabilize reeling credit markets in the country. The recent stock market news showed the federal bailout to sort borrowing processes that would provide for some more lending rules. Also, they have set their gaze on the lending rules of these banks, which would actually account for big headwinds to the downside that the companies may have acquired through the years. The Federal Housing Administration has also extended assistance toward the owners of homes by assuring them of the $300 billion foreclosure rescue for citizens who have had trouble financing their house loans.

Unfortunately, while the headlines reveal that these efforts have been raised, it won’t be until the next few weeks before the changes would be carried on, even with the major banks. Needless to say, investors are more favorable with adjusting mortgage modification programs which would give them a bit more leg room on the principal amount of loan of these borrowers.

The U.S. administration is keeping a close eye on all the home foreclosures and financial institutions that are being affected by the credit crisis. While the stock market news says that lenders are simply not confident enough to loan, the possibility of refinancing mortgages at a loss may still be slim. The government’s role in the current economic turmoil that has spread through the market does not simply end on passing a bill that will magically solve all our problems but also in raising programs that will bring lending and borrowing right back to where we started the year. Surely, these companies have developed lending phobias as their industry plunged hard in the stock market. But they should realize that the bill is intended not only for saving their assets but also, and more importantly, giving affordable loans for the common citizens to refinance their loans again.

There is a chance that the credit crunch to back it up. The government should work on taming these banks to give the borrowers’ part of the bailout plan, and this in turn will help the consumer out. Only then can we be assured that the credit crunch has finally bid the country goodbye.
