Any banks which is suspected is dead in the water. Expect a bailout plan for Caisses d'Epargne in the next 24 hours...

(This one will be fun to negotiate: the Caisse des Dépôts, the usual suspect for a capital injection, is pissed off at Caisses d'Epargne for their take-over of Natexis - it was done in a hurried way while the previous boss of CDC was in the hospital, against his specific instructions, robbing CDC of its influence in the company)

Re: These days (none / 1)

I've been waiting for this bit of fun for over a year now, counting the nuts moving in and out of "the squirrel's" coffers.

Expect fucktard Millaud to pull a last-minute stunt like taking over the floated remains of Natixis, that would give him a few billions in relapse (he doesn't like the market value of natixis, which is just a fraction of its net asset value, because assets are overvalued of course, so he could eliminate the "market" in the "value").
