Here is the source.
Now I wonder: “What did I do wrong when I picked this stock? Where there hints to forecast this disaster?”
I definitely can TAG this post among “My investing mistakes”.
Even if I burned $1700 on NEW, it makes me laugh to read my April 3 2006 enthusiastic buyer’s post specially where I write:
“right now I tell I feel like someone who made a big bargain!”
or my April 20 Comment:
What the heck is New Century Financial Corp ? Why does it give juicy dividend yield of 15% ? Why does it have a P/E 6? April 3, 2006

This is what I am going to try and find out… By reading on news.google.com I find out that:
New Century Financial Rose To Over A 7-Month High Trading Markets – 23 Mar 2006
And also that:New Century Financial CEO got $1.07M bonus for 2005 MarketWatch – 22 Mar 2006
It seems all right. Then reading around I find that the mortgage business is being beaten down. Is it? Then why are dividend yield forecasts so juicy? Why are earning so high that they result into a P/E ratio of 6?
