My last round of betting on banks was back in the mid-nineties. I shorted Citi and some one other of biggies, I hedged it open net zero with two good mid-sized banks. I made money net out, even though the bad big guys went up. There was still some respect for decent book-keeping.

How can anyone bet these days? Insanity rules. It’s like the mob wars in Chicago during the prohibition.
