3 billion shares? Doubtful. Bove is probably trying to manage expectations to the lowest possible level.

I wouldn't be surprised to see BAC be forced to go through another big round of capital raising. They have 1/3 of BLK, Columbia asset mgmt, First Republic, and 11% of CCB.

They aleady have a $1 billion deal for part of Columbia, and a $1 billion deal for First Republic. They could generate another $2 billion from Columbia, $5 billion from BLK, and $20 billion from CCB.

I'm just not sure on what basis the government will be allowed to single out BAC for further capital raising, unless they lift the bar for everyone.
