...recent years has moved to companies for which there is no such shutdown plan. When Wall Street firm and major mortgage player Bear Stearns experienced something akin to a bank run in March, the solution that Paulson and Bernanke came up with was a hastily arranged sale to JPMorgan Chase & Co., backed by a $29 billion guarantee from the Fed. The Fed is responsible for keeping prices stable and credit flowing. Bailing out troubled lenders to prevent a financial meltdown is a entirely different kind of job, one that most economists say belongs in the hands of Treasury and Congress...
...stock price dropped below $10 this week to its lowest level in 54 years, down significantly from $43 last fall after the automaker had signed a new four-year labor contract with the United Auto Workers that included significant concessions. JPMorgan said the company has to raise $10 billion in fresh capital in the next several months. Merrill Lynch was even less optimistic.

Although, as he said, I was working at JPMorgan at the time, and I didn't really think a lot of it until probably March the following year, when I decided to take a break from JPMorgan...
...polished up the business plan and then I basically got hold of the investment banking bonus calendar, so I worked out when bonuses were announced, and when they were paid, and then we tried to go and see people in between those two dates. Rather than just go to JPMorgan, I went to people in 10 different banks between us. And we tried to get someone on a trading floor in each of those banks, the idea being if we had an investor there, that person would spread the word about their investment...
