Looks like Merrill Lynch CDOs are only worth 5 cents on the dollar instead of 22 cents on the dollar...

Bank of America just needs to hand out a few more of those credit cards to illegals and they will be OK. LOL

This is not Merger talk, it is take over talk.

They’re getting out ahead of the Lehman-induced crash. If Lehman isn’t bailed out (or ‘bailed-in’ by other banks), then the counterparty risk to other banks goes up markedly, and their balance sheets go to crap as well.

MER their heads out from betwixt their generously plump buttocks ahead of being forced up against the wall is the first smart thing I’ve seen happen since last year.

First Countrywide, and now Merrill? Jeez.

And how do the foreign wealth funds feel about being uber-diluted?
