Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know Newsby SA Editor Rachael Granby- Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought.
- Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only.
- Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses. Interbank lending remains limited, and borrowing from the Fed's expanded discount window continued its trend of setting new highs every week, as the total daily average rose to $420.2B vs. $367.8B last week.

Wednesday, October 15.Bullish Calls:Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.Bearish Calls:Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."Email continues...
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend. - Stocks & Sectors -SampleSeeking Alpha - Stocks & SectorsInternet

Manufacturing Collapse Reminiscent of Great Depression's Beginning
Credit Card Crunch
In the early 70's, my parents moved to a new town and applied for a mortgage to buy a home. They almost didn't get the loan because the people at the local bank "didn't know them."
We've sure come a long way. And not for the better.
On Saturday, I called Chase to ask them to remove a bogus late fee on my credit card. They refused. I literally laughed at the customer service rep and told her to go to lend to some deadbeat and cancelled my account of 12 years.
I'm exactly the kind of customer these people want - I live beneath my means, have low debt/income, and ahve excellent credit. It took me no more than 5 minutes to apply and get approval online with another issuer.
These idiots still haven't learned the lesson.

Yes. Just like they'd changed during the tech bubble.

Vikram Pandit, 'COO' of Citigroup
Successful companies need CEOs who are capable of patient and careful long-term strategic planning. If someone waltzed into Citi and immediately declared that he had everything figured out, you could rightfully dismiss him as full of sh*t
