Each quarter we evaluate the fairvalue of our MSRs, and any decrease in fair value reduces earningsin the period in which the decrease occurs.
Paradoxically, economic theory suggests that this decrease in demand and subsequent decrease in cost of using the resource could cause a rebound in demand.
Moreover, because demand is negatively sloped, the increase in price would decrease total units sold, which would almost certainly decrease total cost.
