Mortgage Loan Trust deals have been placed under review for possible downgrade by Moody's Investors Service.The affected classes are as follows: series 1997-2, class M-2F; series 1997-3, classes M-2F, B-1F, and B-2F; series 1998-1, classes M-2A, M-2F, and B-1F; series 1998-2, class B-1F; and series 1998-3, classes M-2A, B-1A, and B-1F. Moody's also placed 11 classes from three transactions under review for possible upgrade.
