The 'De-Branding' of Merrill: BofA Drops the Bull on Its Own Foot

Do better research. The ML Bull is alive and well - with the "thundering heard" group of over 16,000 financial advisors of Merrill Lynch Wealth Manangement. Ken Lewis and his marketing squad have kept the division and has even consolidated the BAI into ML. One of your readers is correct regarding the need to blend ML/BAC brands internationally - and soften the trading image of ML (the small area of ML that almost brought the whole enterprise down). No, the "crown jewel" of the Merrill Lynch bull lives on and is very healthy.

BofA's Merrill Purchase: Good for America, Bad for Them

Yes, just what Obama and the media needs more of - some emotional idiot spouting non-sense, based on partial facts. And making Monday morning suggestions that provide ridiculous solutions with no basis in financial or economic reality.

Take a lesson from Warren Buffet. Ask, "And then what?" after each of John Gilluly's "suggestions".

This situation sucks, folks. If there were criminal acts, the system will get their day in court with the culprits. If laws and rules need to be altered to ensure it won't happen again, they will be enacted and modified.

Put your pitchforks and torches down and get back to some real work (or finding work) - or move to a socialist country. Either way, just stop typing this crap and stop the madness.
