Last week, keep your eyes peeled to the sky, it could be a name brand... can you say WaMU? I Can...
Today, the largest bank failure in US history; FDIC seized WaMu overnight, deposits, assets & select liabilities sold to JPMorgan for $1.9 billion.
Still needing cash... JPMorgan sold $10 billion in shares following the WaMu purchase.

Stagflation gauge: real exports +12.3% as real imports decline on crude oil prices -7.3%. Durable goods PCE -2.8%; Non durable +3.9%.
John Q. still pulling back as real domestic purchases shrank -0.1%. The economy has been contracting 3 straight quarters and the true ugliness has just begun.
Often wrong, but never in doubt, this is the Nattering Naybob and you're not.
