Set aside for a moment whether or not you support the Bush administration's plan for a Wall Street financial bailout. Let's just look at the involvement of Republican presidential nominee John McCain. On Wednesday, the Arizona senator startled everyone. He said he would suspend his campaign, return to Washington, postpone the first presidential debate if necessary. Partisanship was threatening the $700-billion US rescue package. He was going to make it work. For days prior, the White House and congressional leaders had been hammering away at a deal. Despite widespread opposition from taxpaying voters, things were moving forward. President George W. Bush had already made key concessions to Capitol Hill (and, more important, to voters angry with the plan) and Capitol Hill was rushing a rescue package forward, just as Bush asked. There was opposition. Fiscal conservatives – mostly Republicans in the House of Representatives, but Democrats as well – were still going to vote against any bailout. They were and are in the minority. "Let market forces rule," they say, "That's the bedrock of capitalism." That was pretty much the situation Wednesday. Most people saw a deal coming by the weekend. McCain saw something different. ... Source: www.ameinfo.com --- 13 days ago

Is it time to take stock, David Halberstam/Tom Brokaw style of the current generation? I think so. If you use the Brokaw model, it would be like D-Day coming up and 90% of the forces put on the beach being slaughtered, and then command making a call on the radio to have some Superman force come in and keep them from facing complete annihilation. Some would argue they are facing annihilation already: that literally the wall street genus, the DNA of the ‘trader‘ the Dealmaker, has been obliterated. That I believe is true. There will be no forward propagation of the code (thank god). When the curtain was pulled back, instead of a bunch of geniuses, captains of ‘industry,‘ we see a bunch of dopes addicted to gambling in a game where they were the ones setting all the rules. Is it fair to call it a generational judgment? Given that 75% of the graduating class of Yale in 1986 went into investment banking, I think it is fair (especially when you consider the fact that the enlistment rate of WWII was 12%). it is amazing how male this whole mess is. There has not been a single female IDed as part of any of these imploding disasters. But the character of the whole thing is very male: gambling, chest-pounding and risk-taking stupidity. What does this have to do with technology? Many of the insane meltdowns occurring in the last few years have the same basis: complexity.

Close to 85,000 employees in the New York area could be affected by Bank of America Corp.'s acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co. and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s bankruptcy, and many will be investment bankers.

Bank of America Corp.'s steal of a deal for Countrywide Financial Corp. is getting more and more expensive. The Charlotte, N.C., bank announced that it will spend $8.4 billion to provide relief to 400,000 Countrywide customers as a settlement of lawsuits in 11 states including California, Illinois and Florida . Countrywide, which was acquired by Bank of America for $4 billion in July, was sued by the states for allegedly conducting predatory lending practices. The $8.4 billion will offer customers direct loan relief by cutting interest rates and principles on troubled mortgages, waiving certain fees and setting aside funds for foreclosure relief and relocation. It's interesting to note that the integration of Countrywide, which BofA CEO Ken Lewis initially said in July would be immediately accreditive, is costing double the acquisition price. It just goes to show that it costs a lot to "take over the world." - Maria Woehr See Corporate Dealmaker: BofA continues to put its stamp on Countrywide See Dealscape: BofA post-merger blues include Countrywide lawsuits See Dealscape: BofA CEO says Countrywide add will translate to profits ...
Two weeks after Bank of America Corp. stunned Wall Street with the $50 billion takeover of Merrill Lynch & Co., the banks have clarified what role Merrill CEO John Thain will play after the merger is complete. Bank of America chairman and CEO Ken Lewis said Thain, current chairman and chief executive of Merrill Lynch, will become president of global banking, securities and wealth management in the combined company once the $50 billion merger is completed. Thain's responsibilities will include what is now in global corporate and investment banking, or GCIB, and most of what is now in global wealth and investment management at BofA, which will be merged with similar functions at Merrill. Brian Moynihan will continue as president of GCIB during the merger process and will become president of private equity and global operations upon completion. Moynihan will also be the Bank of America assessment business lead for the transition, working with Tom Sanzone, Merrill Lynch's executive vice president and chief administrative officer. - Baz Hiralal See press release For more Movers & shakers, see The Deal newsweekly's Dealmaker section ...
Last week I highlighted the growing popularity of Great Depression references among the media and academics. Now it seems the public is falling in line with the perception that times may get as hard as 70 years ago, according to a new CNN poll . About 60% of the 1,000 people surveyed by the cable news channel believe a depression is very real. Even bleaker, a related CNNmoney query of economists (no numbers given, so it may not be terribly valid) points to a belief that unemployment could reach as high as 12% next year -- which, while half of the Great Depression's level, is certainly higher than at any point since. Fueling some of the rising rolls of the unemployed are folks from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and other distressed or deceased Wall Street firms. So what's in store for an out-of-work Dealmaker in what Time coined Depression 2.0? Apple carts? Soup lines? Mini golf ? While apple carts and soup lines are often identified with the Great Depression, so too apparently is mini golf, notes a Bloomberg story about the state of the golf industry, which seems to be sharing Wall Street's pains. Mini golf evidently saw its apex during the Depression, when 30,000 courses -- about five times the number of fairways today -- opened across the country, some even on apartment building rooftops. More seriously, many dealmakers leaving Wall Street firms traditionally headed toward hedge funds and private equity firms. However, with hed ...
