Regardless of predictions, WMIH should be in better shape now than before the merger. For the first time, WMIH has a real, ongoing business. For the first time, WMIH has expectations of perpetual revenue.
I have been considering why J Dimon chose this time for his CNBC interview and opened it by inserting WAMU into the conversation. I suspect it was a PR move in answer to the realization that the ghost of WAMU was now prepared to compete again.
I suspect within 3-5 years, JPM will covet and ultimately acquire WMIH.
Enjoy the ride
