    Lehman Brothers Take-over: Implications for Financials [view article]
    How can you not point out that BAC has not reported a loss Q but reduced positive earnings. That is #1 and has yet to cut the dividend. Someone needs to adjust perspective. The BAC Board does not have a track record of exploiting Shareholders. Reply

    Lehman Brothers Take-over: Implications for Financials [view article]
    No so sure I would be assuming that because Lehman gets valuated to junk all the related financials would be valuated at the same level. Also no so sure about buying Lehman without assuming its obligations, although it can happened I doubt it and if it does margin calls will start to fullfil those obligations before the deal is closed.

    Thanks for the time and effort that went into this article.
    Although, I do no think that the other financials hinge on "the lehman Factor".
    FRE and FNM I believe will be the true gauge, and their outcome will dictate the valuation of the fore mentioned stocks.
    Still its great to look at that chart and see most are climbing back to their rightful spots...Book value..that is...

    Your assumption that all companies are in the same
    dire straits as Lehman would seem to beg the issue!
    In addition, Lehman would not opt for such a valuation unless it was the last gasp! Many financials
    trading below book value are in much better shape
    thank you, and some even are at lowered valuations
    due to revised accounting mark to market rules!
    All in all, you article is a non starter

    Disclosure from Financials? I Call B.S. [view article]
    Att: RBC Bank President Gordon Nixon - Salary - 11.73 Million!!

    $100,000 - MISTAKE (FISHERMEN'S LOAN)
    I'm a commercial fisherman fighting the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC Bank) over a $100,000 loan mistake. I lost my home, fishing vessel and equipment. Help me fight this corporate bully by closing your RBC account.

    There is no monthly interest payment date on the contract.
    Date of first installment payment, (Principal + interest) is approximately 1 year from the signing of my contract.
    Demand loan contracts signed by other fishermen around the same time showed a monthly interest payment date on their contract,(agreement).
    The lending policy did change at RBC from one payment (principal + interest) per year for fishing loans to principal paid yearly with interest paid monthly. This lending practice was in place when I approached RBC.
    Only problem is the loans officer was a replacement who wasn't familiar with these type of loans. She never informed me verbally or in writing about this new criteria.

    JasonC:

    Actually, Merrill wasn't a big S.I.V. player--their writedowns were all from inventory they were unable to securitize when the market turned. As for Citi, the majority of their writedowns have come form inventory in their C.D.O. business, a vast minority of the writedowns were from S.I.V.'s. The issue with S.I.V.'s was, first and foremost, one of capital and consolidation.
