reminds me of wcom .. the ceo came out on wed and said all is well, i have to believe the fed already had there hand in it
Some people had to know, the volume friday was crazy. I guess that's how it goes, survive the next crisis so you can buy out the competition.
3.2bb is gone. Just gone. And the Fed is picking up 30bb tab. Great. These guys have hosed me for 20 years, and they still are costing us money. I participated in the original deal; 1985 32 bucks with sixty cents I think. Anybody remember???
JPM jumping on BSC in their weakest hour, will go down as one of the decades best trades! They should be kind enough to give each exec. at Bear a cigarette after this.
SLK selling FirstOptions of Chi and then buying them back from First Conti 7 years later was one of the all time flips. Buying BSC for 2 when the clearing business is reported to be worth 20 tell you just how shitty the rest of the crap on their books is. We'll see how great a trade it is in the future. Going to be lots of long faces from the execs who got paid in BSC stock.
