      Chris Whalen, of Institutional Risk Analytics, said: “What the investment shows is that Bear Stearns looks like good value at this level. Bear Stearns is a sound bank, I’m not worried about their future.

      I enjoy these bullish articles on the financials if only to see the shrieking bears become unglued. This one was a show-stopper.

      Well stated Jason.
      Commercial banking is all about the spread with the underlying assumption that they know how to manage that spread with effective asset/liability management techniques and that the asset quality(loans) is maintained.

      Is Countrywide Financial Headed for Bankruptcy?
      Sep 12, 2007 -- /prbuzz/ --A British billionaire has acquired a seven per cent stake in troubled bank Bear Stearns.
      Joe Lewis, a Tottenham Hotspur shareholder who made his money by trading in global currency markets, paid $860
      million (£424 million) for the stake which he has built up over the last two months.
      The disclosure has prompted analysts on Wall Street to question whether Mr Lewis has successfully identified the bottom
      of the market in the wake of the crisis in the subprime mortgage market, or if he has over-paid.
      Chris Whalen, of Institutional Risk Analytics, believes that Mr Lewis has entered the market at the right time and that it is
      investment in banks which are trying to cover up the extent of their exposure to the subprime mortgage market crisis that
      should be avoided.
      "What the investment shows is that Bear Stearns looks like good value at this level. Bear Stearns is a sound bank, I'm
      not worried about their future," Mr Whalen told the Times.

      I'm staying tuned.

      I started buying my favorite financials this month and will continue until next year at this time...but then again, I was buying energy after the Enron scandal and everyone thought I was insane. I only wish I was smart enough to buy at the bottom, alas, I am not.

      Commercial banks will make money the old fashioned way - increase spreads and lower the bank burden through technology and economies of scale.
      I love the financials @ these prices...however let it be said, I've been wrong before.

      That said, I was just thinking today how much I miss Grant, Marty Zweig, Harvey Eisner, Eddie Brown and the crew on Wall Street Week. I also remember that Louis treated technicians rather harshly, referring to them as 'elves'.
      Ahhh, those were the days.
