Karl, nice catch. Missed her saying 3Q until you pointed it out and that's the sort of thing I look for.

Great video...

The big banks are all walking dead. HSBC and Wells, JPM, Citi all dead from their own lending. BAC what a bunch of dumb****s - they stay out of the mess for the first year and then jump headfirst into Countrywide and Merril's problems. Ken Lewis may not be the biggest villain in this episode but he surely wins the Barney Fife award for incompetence.

I like USB - especially at todays price, but I can't think of any others.

There are thousands of little banks who have done business the right way and they're fine. Had a meeting with one the other day and asked him how it was to pay for all the big banks mistakes. He owns a small national bank and is a Fed member bank - he knows he's not getting his money back.

"These are interesting times. We don't trust the government, we don't trust the legal system, we don't trust the media, and we don't trust each other! We've undermined all authority, and with it, the basis for replacing it! It's like a six-year-old's dream come true!"

forgetting about recent 30 delq's which are doing a moonshot, I wonder if the regulators have even done the balance sheet math if REO was carried at even 80% of tax value and goodwill = zero.

kaboom for 2/3rds of the shareholders.

and a side note: someone should start a list of all the reps & senators who are known to be literate with a balance sheet. Schumer can, I assume Kerry (MA) can, Kohl (WI) is a billionaire businessman...

It'll get worse. Just wait.

Quote:
....... The U.S. government's fiscal year begins on October 1 of the previous calendar year and ends on September 30 of the year with which it is numbered. .......


What fiscal year and/or quarter is being referenced?

They're counting calendar years, I suspect.

If its 3Q then its even worse as that would be JUNE of 2008.

I laughed out loud while I was listening to this on CNBC(thanks Sirius!).

The December 31, 2008 Call reports should start hitting in the next 10 days and when they do I bet Sheila will not be able to make that same claim.

I've looked at a number of them for banks here in Georgia. They make for some interesting and concerning reading. Couple that with what I have seen some of these banks doing with modifications for their customers and it's clear that many of the multimillion dollar A&D and construction loans are worth a fraction of what they are booked at. Many are simply continuing the game of kick the can down the road.

Great video! I just sent the link to my Senator. I also told him that the massaging by Ms Bair is getting very old, and more and more Americans are catching on and getting a little tired. Fortunately Senator Bunning is anti TARP. I will sending Tea to DC next week. I have had enough of this S**T.
