Meanwhile, in an indicator of the tensions surrounding the financial sector, an analyst, who on Thursday prompted a $369 billion (£177 billion) plunge in the value of US shares by issuing a negative note on Citigroup, said that she had received several death threats from investors in the bank. Meredith Whitney, a CIBC analyst, had prompted a near-7 per cent drop in Citigroup?s shares on Thursday after suggesting that the bank needed to raise more than $30 billion to restore its capital cushion.
Mr Prince, the chairman and chief executive of Citigroup, has faced repeated calls for his resignation in the face of weak profits, a flagging share price and a $6.5 billion third-quarter writedown, which resulted in a 57 per cent decline in profits. He cancelled a key speech in Japan tomorrow only hours before details of the meeting emerged.
i'm sure several others will fall, like Citigroup
btw merrill lynch was named and paid finds for the enron deal...
I believe that when a company 'hide's assets' on the books and hedges the assets on investments or future investments this 'should' be disclosed to investors. instead the investors see what the company wants them to see and not the whole picture.
that is what happened to enron and now merrill lynch soon Citigroup.
