We don't know what happened to 7,600 Bear Stearns employees on the chopping block following its acquisition by JP Morgan Chase & Co., but one landed a job in San Diego.
He's Jeff Walton, and he's the new CEO at Accredited Home Lenders, the San Diego-based subprime mortgage bank now owned by a Texas investment bank.
Walton replaces Jim Moran, who had been interim CEO since February when former co-founder, chairman and CEO Jim Konrath resigned.
Accredited didn't have anywhere near the spectacular failure that Bear Stearns had when its stock went into a free fall earlier this year following heavy speculation about the mountains of subprime loans on its books.
