  4. indymac (imb) of course
     
  5. probably just a rumor which will cause panicking and then liquidity will go south once the bank's name is reveled

    Just like the rumor last week that LEH was being sold for $15.....


    RIGHTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!



    :p :p :p :p :p


    I dont think any news like that is a rumor since probably all 7000 banks that exist in the US will be knocking on the feds door.

    This is getting old, everyone including a few cab drivers in nyc now know about credit crisis and what the definition of a writedown is, which means enough with the rumors.

    NY HOOD, thanks for the post. Can you provide a source for your rumour?

    palenimbus: I don't think IMB counts as a "large bank" any more. It has a market cap of about 50 million.
     
  9. Where are you hearing this rumor?
