Bye Bye WAMU Pension!?
WaMu employees likely to lose pensions; many to lose jobs
Scharf, who spent a chunk of the conference call answering blunt questions from employees, said employees’ pension plans are part of WaMu’s business that’s held up in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, so it’s not J.P. Morgan’s responsibility to honor them. That likely means employees who are currently accruing money into the plan as well as employees who are already retired might be cut off.

yessir... strong bank.
USB looking very strong in a turbulent market. Looks like all the press of it being one of the few bright spots in banking is paying off for us.
If we can close above 36.80 that will bode well for targets in the low 40's.
Good luck all
Holding strong... when others are not... if it tanks again to $22... load IMO.

Banks would be big winners in Visa IPO
March 14 (Reuters) - Following is a list of Visa Inc's largest shareholders, and the proceeds they are expected to see from the credit card processor's initial public offering planned for next week.
In the eagerly awaited offering, Visa planned to sell 406 million Class A shares at $37 to $42 each, for proceeds of $15 billion to $17 billion, according to a regulatory filing last month.
Of that, Visa's member banks, stemming from a previous membership-based ownership structure, would be the biggest beneficiaries, with total proceeds of about $10.2 billion, Visa said in an amended registration statement.
* JP Morgan Chase & Co (JPM.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 28.7 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $1.2 billion.
* Bank of America Corp (BAC.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 14.3 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $600 million.
* National City Corp (NCC.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 9.9 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $416 million.
* Citigroup Inc (C.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 6.9 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $290 million.
* U.S. Bancorp (USB.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 6.2 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $260 million.
* Wells Fargo & Co (WFC.N: Quote, Profile, Research), selling roughly 6.2 million shares for proceeds of as much as about $260 million.

U.S. Bancorp Cuts Prime Rate
Tuesday January 22, 2:38 pm ET
U.S. Bancorp Cuts Key Interest Rate After Federal Reserve Decision
NEW YORK (AP) -- U.S. Bancorp on Tuesday lowered its prime rate by three-quarters of a percentage point after the Federal Reserve cut its key interest rate.
Minneapolis-based U.S. Bancorp said its prime rate is now 6.5 percent, down from 7.25 percent. The Fed cut the federal funds rate, which is what banks charge each other for overnight loans, to 3.5 percent from 4.25 percent previously.
The prime rate is what banks charge their best customers, and serves as the benchmark for lending rates to all customers for mortgages, credit cards and other products.
Most banks typically raise or lower their prime rate by an amount equal to the Fed's rate action within minutes of its decision.
