ahhh, why is there a big
ahhh, why is there a big black line across my screen!
I like how there are barely
I like how there are barely any banks you can vote for... If you are going to put banks that are about to collapse put ones that have taken some big hit with the subprime(ie: not GS, but maybe UBS even though they won't collapse IMHO)

GS and MS are in there
GS and MS are in there because they are part of the original American big five investment banks (GS/MS/ML/LEH/BSC). The American mono-line banks are the least diversified across industries (thus having the most exposure to mortgages) and across international lines as well (thus having the most exposure to the US where all of the trouble went down). Citi was thrown in there because they are in a precarious situation as well. In my opinion UBS is pretty shaky, but I really don't think anyone foreign will have too much trouble. JPM/CS/DB are solid right now.

ML didn't start in IB until like the 70's. JPM's been in IB sine the early 1900's at least.
the commercial banks will
the commercial banks will not collapse as their commericla banking operations are fine

I misworded my statement, they are not the "original" ones but they are the 5 American mono-line investment banks.
