The Month In Review At Credit Writedowns: July 2010

For those of you who only receive updates via the weekly newsletter, we have been posting over the last few weeks but I have dropped the ball on crafting a weekly newsletter.  So this week I will make this week in review post a month in review with links to the most popular posts from the last few weeks. I intend to write a weekly narrative sometime later today or tomorrow. So expect the usual two weekly posts this weekend.
