I would recommend Gasparino for CEO... After all he "has been following financials for 15 years".

guest @2:05 - If I remember well, I was promised a posterior inspection of blndebanker. She must be preparing (i.e. getting in shape) for that event.

I would also be happy to do some research on the 'femaleness' of blndebnker.

Shouldn't they be arresting the deadbeats that are defaulting on their mortgage payments, instead.

guest @4:14 There are no competent people at Wachovia... Cashier jobs are not that hard to fill.

Jimmy Cayne can always use the weed defense. All he would get is a stint at rehab and some community service.

As 2:48 said, Wachovia is not going to offload the full IB team. In fact, the value that Wachovia brings to JPM is to increase the quality of the female talent at the firm.
JPM is notorious for occupying the sweet spot of mediocrity on the IB food chain (along with Citi). Not profitable enough to hire good looking female analysts solely for their office-candy attributes, but not douche enough to repel marginally qualified candidates that were denied offers at better firms.
Wachovia on the other hand, has never been able to recruit at any decent school. Therefore it has access to a deeper pool of female talent where being smart or possessing analytical or quantitative skills are not a prerequisite for being hired.

@big r. Only minorities and 9-5rs own cars in NYC. Don't be a douche.

@blnde. Motivated, go-getter type... Are you sure you don't work in industry ?
This douche has been in the workforce for 20 years, he is not a freshly minted college graduate in the 80's trying to get an entry-level position on Wall Street.

Connecticut / Vermont / Maine, you are such a douche. What are you doing there, visiting mommy?
Once your wife/gfriend/favorite ho has kids, then it is a different game. At that point most people would move out of Manhattan.

@bldnde. That loser, despite his lack of PR acumen, is still an MIT grad and was a retail banker (cashier) at Fortis Capital.
He is not looking for a job at McDo where he would get hired because his tenacity and dedication to his family, or because he is a rehabilitated felon / druggie who is looking to better himself, and therefore 'deserves' a chance.

@Cincinnatus c. Clearly, lapsus calami. I passed by J Cayne's former building this morning. Must have inhaled some lingering second hand smoke.
