When Carver Yachts, makers of world class yachts, filed for bankruptcy last year, yacht production stopped for months.  However, early this year, they started production again under new management and a new name.  Marquis Yachts, located in Pulaski, Wisconsin, was awarded a $1.5 million loan from the Community Development Block Grant program to get their feet back on the ground.

Marquis Yachts say they plan to hire back 315 new workers.

Credit card delinquencies down nationwide

Posted on May 26th, 2010 No Comments

According to a recent TransUnion report, fewer people were late making their credit card payments in the first quarter this year compared to last year.

Credit card delinquency is highest in Nevada, at 1.79%, followed by Florida at 1.59%. The lowest delinquencies are in North and South Dakota and Alaska.

Nationwide average credit card debt also fell for the fourth consecutive quarter, decreasing a total of 4.95% or around $300, from $5,434 to $5,165.

In a news release, Ezra Baker, the director of consulting and strategy in TransUnion’s financial services business unit, said “The last four quarters of consecutive decreases in credit card balances shows that consumers continue to focus on paying down their credit cards in response to economic uncertainty and the continued somewhat anemic employment outlook, wanting to keep a credit cushion available for hard times.”

Hollywood video to close remaining stores

Posted on May 18th, 2010 No Comments

Movie Gallery Inc., the Wilsonville, Ore.-based operator of the Hollywood Video rental chain, has announced plans to close its remaining 1,900 stores and liquidate its operations.

The company filed the notice Friday last week in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern Dictrict of Virginia in Richmond. This decision follows the company’s defaulting on one of its loans.

Movie Gallery Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in February, for the second time in three years.

Revenue for the company fell last year to $1.4 billion from $2 billion. Analysts suggest that the proliferation of DVD kiosks, over-the-Internet services, and companies offering movies-by-mail is responsible for the company’s decline.

Seattle number one in nation for consumer credit debt

Posted on May 14th, 2010 No Comments

Seattle and Dallas have overtaken competitors as the two cities with the greatest average credit card debt per consumer, at around $26,500.

Both Dallas and Seattle exceed the national average consumer credit debt, which is $24,775. This is true for 65 percent of metropolitan areas in the nation.

The report cautions that this should not be taken at face value, and that it is important to remember that debt levels are not always the most important factor in maintaining positive credit scores.

“It’s important to look at the whole picture when evaluating how consumers are actually managing their credit,” said Maxine Sweet, vice president of public education for Experian.

Despite the fact that Seattle consumers have the highest average debt, they also rank very low comparatively in terms of late payments. This means that, in general, they are able to maintain higher credit scores.
