Thornburg Mortgage Loses $3.31 Billion

Thornburg Mortgage, a specialist in jumbo home loans that nearly went bankrupt in March, on Thursday posted a $3.31 billion first-quarter loss as the value of mortgages and other securities it owns plummeted.

The company said its net loss before preferred stock dividends totaled $20.64 per share, and compared with a year-earlier profit of $75 million, or 62 cents per share.

Thornburg shares closed Wednesday at 72 cents, according to New York Stock Exchange data. Their 52-week high is $27.80, set last June 20.

I am absolutely shocked that TMA is still trading on the markets it's over for them, and they're not big enough for the Fed to bother bailing them out Fed's got more worries, what with MER and LEH about to go bankrupt
