While Lloyd Blankfein spends his days in consultation with his criminal attorney, Jamie "Obama's favorite banker" Dimon continues to expand JPMorgan Chase.
A rumor is circulating that JP Morgan will takeover Bank of America. The takeover will be backed up by a $100 billion government "investment" in preferred shares issued by the combined entity.
These deals usually work out very well for Jamie, to the tune of billions.
Hmm, I guess that would explain the hiring freezes a few weeks ago.
