    Whoever is stupid enough to buy WFC stock in a new offering deserves to get fucked over. Just sayin’.

    Isn’t Oprah involved in some WFC coupon thing or something?

    Why are they selling stock and debt if they don’t really need the money?
    TGFD thinks:
    1) Equity markets were manipulated upward by the gov’t, the media, the FASB, and by the bogus bank 1Q profits so
    2) The fraudulent stress tests could show some healthy green shoots, and
    3) The banks could raise the desperately-needed money at significantly lower rates and at significantly higher share prices.
    Does anyone have a better explanation?

    Where did this term “green shoots” come from? I hate it.

  17. Posted by guest | May 7, 2009 at 5:34 PM

    16 Agree. On the bright side though, “if you will” seems to have gone away.

  18. Posted by guest | May 7, 2009 at 5:35 PM

    11 I agree re the govt manipulating the equity markets. BTW: I’m sure they caused 9/11 as well.

    We invented “green shoots”.
