ParticipantGreat breakdown Dave. Bank TARP hasnt been a total loss for the American taxpayer. But I wonder how financing plays into the return. It wasnt free for the treasury to get those billions.
2% of 160 billion is still $3.2billion, how is that accounted for in those calculations?

ParticipantWith the Fed purchasing $1.25 trillion in MBS trash, is it any surprise that some of the $700 billion in TARP is being paid back?

Clearly the liability just got transferred from TARP to the Fed.

Look at the return on treasury bills vs what TARP is charging.
Treasuries were going for about 0.40% +/- on a 1 year, 0.80% +/- on a 2 year, 1.34% on a 3 year. Spread against FNM and FRE TARP would probably be about 9% on $100Bil (using 2 year +). Spread against BAC and other banks would be about 2.5%.
