Can You Tell I'm Still Catching Up?

I'm reading Barron's right now and Stephanie Pomboy got a mention from Alan Abelson. She is a buyer of stocks that specialize in repossession. There are three mentioned; Encore Capital (ticker: ECPG), Portfolio Recovery Associates (PRAA) and Asta Funding (ASFI.)

The idea is that many adjustable rate mortgages will be moving higher and Ms. Pomboy says a lot of sub prime borrowers will be hurt. The idea is interesting. I don't know anything about these stocks but I listen to what Ms. Pomboy has to say.
