It’s getting a little complicated now. Citibank for example just convinced somebody to buy what, five percent?, of itself for some number of billions of dollars because their own balance sheet is shaky, and some of that cash apparently is going out the back door a month later.

So the degree to which Citibank uses their own emergency cash for what might very well be a bigger emergency makes Citibank that much weaker again. Do they just go back to their sponsor next week with their hand out a second time with that story?

It seems that whichever way they go, they won't see much improvement, only marginal.

In that sense, this is a crisis alright.
