``The top five U.S. commercial and investment banks — Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase, Citigroup, Wells Fargo and Goldman Sachs — have emerged from the financial crisis larger than ever. As of the third quarter of 2010, they had a total of $8.6 trillion in assets, according to data provider Capital IQ. That’s 13.3% of all U.S. financial firms’ assets, up from 11.8% three years earlier, when the financial crisis hit.''

top FIVE, HMNNNNN............... did I say five or 3 in 2007...............so damn sad, isn't it?

the more the real truth of all this destruction is kept quiet to protect the guy in charge the worse the destruction will get........

some of the non believing kool-aid drinkers now HAVE TO ADMIT THAT FORECLOSURES are bigger than the media sold them.

After 4 years now the LAMESTREAM MEDIA IS FINALLY USING THE WORD DEPRESSION........................it took 1 million foreclosures in their faces to get them to finally put down that kool-aid cup

DEPRESSION ERA, but the NONBELIEVERS make sure that WE KNOW IT is the ONLY THING WRONG :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

...............they will fight to the end that NOTHING else is that bad, JUST THE HOUSING. :roll: :roll: .....................big fat step, isn't it? going to be sad to watch the replay of 'I finally see it' as the truth comes out AND IT ALWAYS DOES...............

sad and misleading to those people that believed the kool-aid and PUT THEIR MONEY INTO THOSE BELIEFS............sad that they might have drank that 'recovery summer' kool-aid and spent money in areas THAT ARE NOT GOOD WHEN YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO A DEPRESSION..................

lies and whitwash and outright ignorance of the facts in our faces are destroying families................and America along with it........... Permalink

Seeing as though The Riegle-Neal Act of 1994 creates a 10 percent deposit cap (codified in 12 U.S.C. 1842(d)) for any individual bank, It is funny to see an article state half the story.

Let's do some simple math here....How many banks would be needed to make up 100% of the deposit sector, If each bank can only hold 10% of the deposits according to Federal Law??? If you answered "10 would be the Fewest" then you would win the prize.

Not 3 or 5, because, Naturally that would only equal 30-50% of the deposits. Permalink

Nope, I just believe the laws that are on the books. See, when someone breaks the law, they go to jail. Just ask Tom Delay Permalink
