ParticipantWell, if offering CD’s at 4% is any indicator of where a bank is at then WaMu is screwed. Countrywide was doing that 6 months ago on every page of the paper. Then IndyMAC followed.
WaMu’s got on online CD offer now at 4% and I’m sure it will go to print once they find a newspaper who will allow them to buy adspace on credit.
If WaMu survives it will likely only be because Hanky and Bernanky open the vault to them.

ParticipantI saw some head lady from the FDIC on CNBC yesterday. She said that there were signs that IndyMAC should have been on the list, but the list is only released quarterly. Basically they don’t want to scare people into a bank run – seems to be everyone ultimate fear.
Can you short the FDIC?

ParticipantThe FDIC website lists properties for sale.
My guess is they will either find a buyer who is (foolishly) willing to pay an inflated value for them in exchange for “special favors”, or even more foolishly they will hold onto them and try to sell them when they go back up.
Everyone on CNBC is as fickle as a clock with pom poms. When Bernanke addresses credit issues they say inflation is not a problem, but when he says something brilliant like inflation concerns are becoming significantly monitored, they cheer for his rate hiking policy.
Same with Kudlow. They’re just pawns in the game designed to keep people comfortably scared.
