    I am hearing lehman and UBS so far. this is coming from someone who works in the legal department of a "major bank". he actually told me about bear stearns a day before it happened,it was a sunday but there was buzz on friday.just be careful with those 2 in particular.

    he also mentioned that Citigroup is in trouble and its not just sub prime,its credit card defaults. if he knows this,so do many others and watching the price action,i believe its true. STAY AWAY from all banks and brokers. do not bottom fish.

    If C or GS or even DB gets into a lot of trouble in the next few quarters, then US would be really in a great depression.
