We truly don't know what went on between the FDIC and WAMU behind closed doors before the closure. However, there's just too much evidence, beginning with Paulsen's statement (which could be construed as a threat), that there is/was a lot of chicanery going on. Plus, we have JPIG admitting that a state of negative goodwill exists.
Speculation is crazy here lol.. I don't expect anything until March 23-25th. People that did proper DD would know that it takes 180 days minimum to find the assets, and then arrange for a buyer/bidder.
