...Obama reforms even approach in significance and forcefulness the changes made back then. In the early days of the Roosevelt Administration, Congress set up the Securities and Exchange Commission and charged it with strictly regulating markets, split banks from investment banks with the Glass-Steagall Act, created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., and enacted all manner of other game-changing financial reforms. It's not just that the Obama reforms are less ambitious than those of the Great Depression. They're also inspired by a very different interpretation of what went wrong.

...like any class on presentation day, there will be some sweaty palms.

...deal brokered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., which closes banks that are insolvent or nearly so, BankUnited is being taking over by a group of private-equity investors, including famed vulture investor Wilbur Ross.

...dark cloud over regional banks is bad news for the FDIC, which provides deposit insurance, now to the level of $250,000 per account, at banks across the nation. At the end of last year, the FDIC had only $19 billion left to cover future failures. That's the lowest the FDIC's insurance fund has been in more than 15 years. As a result, on Friday the FDIC decided to raise the fee it charges large banks for deposit insurance. Also, President Obama recently agreed to allow the FDIC to borrow as much as $100 billion, up from...
