It appears that the key news of the day was not the fluff about the IMF
which as we said was total non-news, but adverse news from the Fed which
just announced that it is launching its 2012 bank stess test which unlike
previous iterations may actually demand capital raises from US banks.
Reuters reports: "The U.S. Federal Reserve plans to stress test six large U.
S. banks against a hypothetical market shock, including a deterioration of
the European debt crisis. The Fed said it will publish the results
next year of the tests for six banks with large trading operations. Those
banks are Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan
Stanley and Wells Fargo. The Fed said its global market shock test for those
banks will be generally based on price and rate movements that occurred in
the second half of 2008, and also on "additional stresses related to the
ongoing situation in Europe." The heightened stress test for those six banks
are part of a larger supervisory test the Fed will conduct on 19 firms'
capital plans. The Fed's review of those plans will determine whether the
banks can raise dividends or repurchase stock. The banks must submit their
capital plans by Jan. 19, 2012." Incidentally, this is a clever way for the
Fed to wrap up all the loose ends regarding European exposure: considering
each and every day news appears about one bank or another having excess
exposure to Europe, it stock punished, this may be the best comprehensive
package. The problem is that next steps will certainly involve tens of
billions in capital raises demanded of the above six banks (and probably
Jefferies) by the Fed. Not surprisingly, ES has collapsed on the news to
just over 1180. | d******4 发帖数: 3451 | 2 那就跌到08的水平吧,C 99c
