      Risk Isn't Just About Volatility
      Looks like Wachovia got rid off the prior toxic risky wasted bank subsidiaries and kept the good ones. Now it can start from scratch to build a new banking subsidiary with safe practice together with its remaining good outstanding subsidiaries. The current subsidiaries of Wachovia make it look like "Merrill Lynch without the toxic risky waste", good job from management it separated the good bank from the bad bank overnight, plus its CEO Bob Steel is one of the top rated mutual fund managers. Wachovia will keep the valuable human resources and the talent that have expirience in the banking business saving them for the new banking subsidiary. Buying the municipal bonds or the auction rate securities will give the inflow of cash as long as its hold even to maturity, so the prospects are good.

      The Plan Has Failed - Cramer's Lightning Round (9/29/08)
      not so fast, looks like Wachovia sold the toxic waste and uncertainties in its banking related subsidiaries and retain the good ones with stockholder preservation, that is an excellent move from Wachovia considering that congress stab the bail out bill. Now Wachovia book value is a lot better than before with practically no debt and good book value.

      Now that the FED broke the deal, it was a very fortunate step from Wachovia to get rid of the JUNKy Bank business and hold on to the good assets smart move indeed.

      Wachovia position is much better now that it was before all the stock sell off was based on panic that they went bankrupt which is not the case, as you can tell by now and shareholders get even to vote, shareholders are not wiped out on this deal, unfortunately for those who sold on panic not likely to recover, for those lucky ones that hold still a good position due to the fact that their book value is similar to that of Merrill Lynch without the toxic waste.

      the rest of subsidiaries at Wachovia Holding make Wachovia like a Merrill Lynch but without the toxic waste, just imaging Merrill Lynch without the toxic waste, that is exactly what is happening so just eyeball your price.
