Anybody interested in a good mystery? Well....... The head of the World Bank owns shares in Bankers Trust (BT). Last time I checked it was up to 200,000 shares. I wonder what kind of stock deal he will get from Deutche Bank, if that goes through? Mr. "Whiter than White", James D. Wolfensohn: (I call him the Wolfman) (As in sheeps clothing) pathfinder.com Why did he wait so long to sell his remaining shares? Did he know about a possible buyout? His job requires bailing out countries with "Bandage" loans. He is the deal maker. Korea was in trouble with private sector loans (The first time the world bank had ever been involved in private sector debt). The world bank stepped in and provided long term loans to help stave off these private sector creditors. I wonder if any of these private sector creditors had dealings with BT? (LOOK IT UP!)After all, BT is one of 25 banks who work with the world fund. stern.nyu.edu You know I think it's funny how Indonesia doesn't warrant bailout for their private sector debts but S. Korea does: (as he so eloquently Puts here) _____________________________________________________________________ Wolfensohn, who will also be visiting Malaysia, Indonesia, the Phillipines and South Korea, said he did not see a role for the World Bank in talks between Indonesia's corporate debtors and international creditor banks. ''Personally, I think it's important the private sector understand that private sector risks are private sector risks.'' he said. ''And maybe that will teach people next time that you cannot rely on being bailed out just because you're dealing in another country.'' _____________________________________________________________________ ...I'm confused. Help me out SA. Maybe I have this all wrong. Maybe this guy really is "Whiter than White" (Does that make him translucent?) So help me out SA. I have tried to go through the EDGAR files for BT and I've found some things. www4.edgar-online.com www4.edgar-online.com (Ever since they bought Alex Brown they have a mountain of SEC filings on various companies,...etc.) I've got the EDGAR insider filings for the Wolfman. They're interesting but lead in other directions which are real weird (Coincidental and unexplainable). edgar-online.com edgar-online.com Then there are the obligatory New World Order, Bilderburg, Trilateralist stuff (We won't go there unless we are forced) BTW - he also controls shares of BT in the Wolfensohn Family Trust. Thanks, JEB
