loantech, Isn't the primary risk with Wells Fargo related to the purchase of Wachovia? I've been watching them as well. jpg

I wonder how could Citi make profits in Q1 09 if they need us to bailout their toxic junks. Further more, I wonder if their profits from derivatives marked to the market instead of hypothetical profits. These banks did this kind of calculations and paid real bonus to their executives. This is how they suck their own company bone dry before tossing the bones to us. There is no real equity in these banks if every thing is marked to the market. If they do not mark their assets to the market they really have no right to foreclose any one. Why the consumers need to mark to the market while they don't?
