UWM: Why Common Shareholders Must Now Wait Before Any Recovery
Walk through the cascade of pressures on the mortgage industry and UWMC: elevated rates, 10b5-1 selling plan, and a $603 million hedge loss tied to the failed Two Harbors deal that's driven the stock down nearly 70% YTD. The core business remained profitable underneath the Q2 loss, but the over-hedged derivatives and subsequent Oaktree Capital preferred raise have left common shareholders like myself with a much longer recovery timeline. Real progress on the preferred pay down, sustained operating results, and eventual restoration of capital returns will determine whether UWM can reclaim a healthier valuation of itself.
