  • Earlier this month, a federal judge pulled a stool leg out from the Financial Stability Oversight Council and its "too big to fail" designations when she struck down MetLife's SIFI status, and another court is questioning the constitutionality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
  • Regulators, meanwhile, continue to regulate, and this week declared the "living wills" of nearly all of the nation's major banks are unacceptable. The banks promise to comply, if only they could figure out what that means.
  • That Dodd-Frank reform has failed and needs to be reformed is pretty much a foregone conclusion at this point. The question is whether the judicial or legislative branch does it, and if it's the legislative branch, what would a Clinton-led rewrite look like? Sanders? Cruz?
