I approached someone, who I believe is well informed about banks and their activities, for an opinion regarding the contents of post #997 below, "Bank's Last Hurrah". Here's the reply ... "Long on rhetoric and short on numbers. What is Morgan Stanley(MS) and Goldman Sachs(GS) exposure to commercial Real Estate ? The article mixes both MS and GS with standard banks which I think shows a lack of precision. Both do not have any exposure to the consumer since they are Investment Managers & Bankers, traders and speculators for their own benefit."
