Participant“BOO HOO !!!!”
Brilliant!! That’s the funniest joke I’ve seen in the user forums!
The real problem, as I see it, is the short sellers. WaMu would have done just fine if it hadn’t been for the pesky short sellers. If the SEC had just banned short selling on financial stocks, we wouldn’t be having this pleasant discussion. Or wait. The SEC did ban… Darn!!
I sure hope Congress approves this $700 billion bailout plan. It will pave the way for Congress to give these geniuses another $5 trillion in a few weeks when this bailout does as much to rein in the crisis as the SEC short sell ban did… and the AIG takeover did… and the Fannie and Freddie bailouts… and the lowering of interest rates and all the liquidity injections…
How, oh how, do these people have any credibility anymore?! Why aren’t they greated with boos and jeers when they testify before congress?

ParticipantI posted this to another thread about WaMu. I think it is relevent here too. Did this JPMorgan takeover really just happen today?
I have a checking account at WaMu, and have run out of checks. My wife sent some money to a friend a week ago, and, lacking paper checks at home, used online bill pay to send the money. Online bill pay cuts hard paper checks to recipients that can not accept electronic transfers. Today, the friend acknowledged getting the check, deposited it right away, but before hand noticed that the date of issue on the check was 9/19, and the bank issuing the check was JPMorgan, not WaMu. Sadly, the friend did not xerox the check first, so we have no hard evidence. But I believe my friend. I suspect some kind of a deal went through a week ago, but there was a big cover up and the story was allowed to break today. It seems sloppy of JPMorgan to have issued the check, but considering most recipients of online bill pay are institutions that have no idea who their customers normally bank with, it seems reasonable that they (JP) expected it would go completely unnoticed. It all seems awfully sinister to me.

Participant“I thought and felt, “The condition of America implied by this has got to be the most depressing thing I have ever witnessed in my entire life.””
I don’t have gun advice to add. I just want to say that I envy you that you are just now depressed. I’ve been depressed since the late 90’s during the tech stock bubble. I’ve been expecting a day of reckoning since then. And when it didn’t come in the early part of this decade but we had a housing bubble instead and in addition, I became even more depressed expecting the reckoning to be that much more severe.
As for me, instead of meditating, I’m studying improv comedy. I plan on just laughing my way through armageddon…
