The only question I have is "how do I profit from the knowledge that there is another loan bubble?"
It seems you could short equities in for-profit colleges, but they don't represent the bulk of the debt (at least I don't think so.) As far as student loans themselves are concerned, aren't most of them backed directly by the gov't? In other words there's no Fannie/Freddie that I could short sell.
I'm sure some savvy investors have also thought of this - does anyone have any sage insight for me?
