Let The Pain Begin

by Bryan

Apparently attempting to make up for its fantasy ratings for the junk mortgage bonds, S&P downgrades dozens of banks.

All of the usual suspects are there, the ones that are ‘too big to fail’, but seem to be making a good attempt at doing just that. This will probably accelerate the trend of people moving their money into smaller, local banks and credit unions.

I expect a mattress company to start selling a ‘vault’ model to provide convenient access to your money, while keeping it more secure that a checking account.

I need a new mattress (someday, anyway).

I’ll be looking for that vault model.

Thanks for the notice!

The numbers will be tied to the prime rate, becoming firmer as the rate goes up.
