Monty; RE >> I read somewhere that one of the things that would fall thru the cracks with the mega bank mergers was bad loans and losses on derivatives. This would be accomplished by disguising them as acquisition & merger costs. This would keep the shareholders from knowing how bad they screwed the pooch. <<< very good, I don't doubt it one bit, about Par for our bankers. An old joke about our bankers, they will lend you an umbrella when the sun is shining, but want it back at the first sign of rain ----------------- Well so far I haven't got toasted by saying the POST has become a propaganda machine for Big money.
