Wachovia Securities was raided today.

Bank of American is teetering.

Several other massive financial organizations are on a sharp downward slide.


Gee - that must be why all their stocks have increased by a couple of

Oh yeah - increased stock value is a sure sign of a banks imminent

Yeah, that explains why Bank of America shares are half the price of
what they were last fall.


B of A has taken a massive write down from it's purchase/rescue of
Countrywide.
