P2P Lending / NFT Lending Forum

For the past two days, there have been lots more F and E grade notes listed.

I was browsing at loans for sale on the Folio pages.
There are more than a few notes for $150 being sold at a discount of around 2% with $0 paid and 60 payments left.

Doesn't that mean that mean the seller is selling at a loss?
There is one loan, for which the seller, presumeably invested $150 and is selling the loans of $148.98.
There are several other loans with the same sort of discount?
What is the seller's logic in doing that?
How does that benefit the seller?

Also, Folio has loans listed with a negative YTM.
I thought you could not list loans at a negative YTM?
Why would anyone want to buy a negative YTM loan?

Thanks in advance to anyone who answers and clarifies any of tose questions.

I was over at Seeking Alpha, and they have news on LC.

I understand now what it must have been for 17th and 18th century sailors to get caught in the doldrums, that low-pressure area around the equator where the prevailing winds are calm and you and your ship sit there for says until some wind finally appears to take you to somewhere where the wind is blowing. For several days, there have been no new E, F or G loans to invest in. Today, finally, there were a few.


My Adjusted Net Annualized Return is at 8.60%.  A few other investors on here claim 9-10%. With no E, F, or G loans, I will never be able to match their wonderful returns!

There seem to be so few of all types of new loans. Or are the good loans being entirely funded so quickly before I even get to see them?
