“I do think that the loan services businesses are an interesting investment because they are very downtrodden and when and if rates come down I think they will perform very well.”
Thesis at the time
BullishKevin views mortgage/loan servicing businesses like Rocket Mortgage as beaten-down but well-positioned if interest rates decline, citing Rocket's acquisitions of Mr. Cooper and Redfin. He discloses he personally holds exposure to Rocket Mortgage.
Key arguments
- Loan servicing businesses are very downtrodden currently
- Rocket Mortgage acquired Mr. Cooper and Redfin, expanding its business
- Kevin has personal exposure to Rocket Mortgage
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- Performance is conditional on rates actually coming down
Hedges and caveats (from the video)
- Video title references -83% crash but this is presented as a hypothetical scenario to prepare for, not a confirmed prediction
- Creator explicitly states the video is 'not trying to shill you on a certain type of investment'
- No specific timeline or trigger for the predicted decline is provided
- Content focuses on defensive positioning and diversification rather than directional calls on specific assets
- Historical examples (2008 crisis, Warren Buffett's actions) are used as illustrative cases, not guarantees of future outcomes
