Thank you.
I have question though...Great research. Thank you.<br /><br />I have question though.<br /><br />You say the Bank's assets are equal to a portion of GDP but GDP is an annual monetary exchange of goods and services so are you saying the banks annual business is that much of GDP?<br /><br />Shouldn't you compare the ASSETS of a bank to the total ASSETS (wealth) of the nation for a more oranges to oranges comparison?<br /><br />In any case obviously those banks are too big like so many industries with virtual monopolies and we need antitrust actions in MANY industries now not just banking.<br /><br />Want to research something else interesting?<br /><br />Research how much of public companies stock are ACTUALLY owned by small concentrations of wealth holders not just by their direct stock ownership (which must be reported) but through large private investment houses like Blackstone who are reinvesting for the same unnamed private people.<br /><br />I would bet you would find that many large companies are secretly owned by a couple of people who do it through these private investment funds while claiming they don't REALLY have control over that stock.<br /><br /><br />VivziziAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-45495153693850086292010-03-02T09:21:22.080-08:002010-03-02T09:21:22.080-08:00This certinaly cannot be a good sign thats for sur...This certinaly cannot be a good sign thats for sure.<br /><br />Jess<br />www.total-anonymity.cz.tcHarold Fowlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08018983019271676117noreply@blogger.com
