    Stay calm.....

    WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - Government officials on Thursday rejected speculation that they had any plans to conduct a massive mortgage refinancing program to stimulate the economy, according to the Wall Street Journal. Federal Housing Administration Commissioner David Stevens told the Journal that "there is not any plan for expanding into a high [loan-to-value] refinance program at this time."

    On the other hand, though I totally disagree with government bailing out mortgage holders, I also disagree strongly with spending hundreds of billions to benefit one in a million.
