G3 User ID: 1531577 United States 05/16/2012 08:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Check this out. . . Morgan Stanley Is Having A Worse Week Than JPMorgan, Here's Why 5/16/2012 @ 4:01PM JPMorgan Chase isn’t the only firm on the Street having a tough week. Morgan Stanley is having a worse one in terms of its stock performance. Since Monday shares of Morgan Stanley have dropped 9.3%. Today Morgan shares fell 4.3% to close at $13.54–a level not seen since November. JPM shares have sunk over 3.4% since Monday following news last week that it lost $2 billion on a trade gone bad. So what’s behind the drop at Morgan Stanley ? Bank analyst Dick Bove says it’s all about Greece. “It is definitely Europe. The belief is that the failure of Greece will bring down much of Europe and the hedges Morgan Stanley put in place will not work,” he says. At the end of March, Morgan Stanley’s net exposure to troubled Euro nations (Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain) was $2.4 billion. It’s exposure before hedges was $4 billion. cont'd: [link to www.forbes.com] |

It could have worked if the big banks hadn't set up direvitive deals to purposely send these countrys into debt so to take them over. And guess what. The debt is owed to the big banks or one big bank. So take a wild guess who set up the deals to put these countrys into debt.. |

Its about putting countrys into debt with very bad deals that the banksters bought off politicans set up. Which purposely put alot of countrys into debt and eventually total slavery to the banksters |
