A change in plans for Caliber’s MSR sales? Looks that way but bidders will get another shot. Meanwhile, servicing values are firming up.

Caliber, as a technical matter, still plans on selling shares to the public. But the company also is in the market with a huge flow deal. Confused?

When rates rise, all sorts of things can happen, like IPO-bound firms opting for a sale instead.

New Residential posted a net income of $68.6 million in the fourth quarter; Ocwen continued its losing streak, coming up $7 million in the red.
