While the Oprah event draws more lenders (10k in 5 days) it did not make field partners process more loans (the number of loans and their amount were about the same slope).

And there's the rub.  It sure would be nice to hear something from someone about when we can expect to see the monthly listings rate start to make its next surge.  Huh?

And there's the rub.  It sure would be nice to hear something from someone about when we can expect to see the monthly listings rate start to make its next surge. 

Over the last three days we have seen a little surge in number of funded loans per day. Here are the stats:

September 23 = 70
September 24 = 87
September 25 = 126
September 26 = 124
September 27 = 153

Right now there are 58 loan requests listed. It seems that we have come out of the "After Oprah" hole. The situation has stabilize on a higher level. Hope it remains like this.

I think the surge was probably the result of removing the $25 cap.

It seems that the loan volume has gone up.  But, let us not forget that # of small loans (micro loans ?) have increased too.  In the past the loans were of jumbo kind.

If it weren't for Simba and Ulli and Collette feeding us stats (thanks!  Thumbs Up), we really wouldn't have much to go by. Too bad Kiva doesn't offer archived stats like some other p2p lender sites.  Cry

I have been tracking the daily dollars lent every day since 9/10.  Prior to the last five days, a good day was clustered about $40k.  In the last five days, it hit $50k each day, with the last two days being around $60k and $70k.  I think they lifted the $25 limit, loans stuck without stockouts; then they emailed a bunch of the people from their Oprah list.  There would be a several day boost from that, as people don't necessarily read and act on an email right away.
