Negatory. It didn't need Wachovia, nor the lost stock. It's got plenty to burn.

Edit/ Okay, definately not plenty. Perhaps you meant CIT Group, much different. As I understand it, Citigroup was up some 10% today.

Bump for relevance.

i've never invested in anything in the stock market.

but i'm concerned about is getting a mortgage for a house in oklahoma when i move. and a rate that isn't like 7% or higher.

i've arrived to the conclusion that economics is merely the study of social behavior (it is indeed a social science) based upon man-made theories that by nature, may be proven wrong over time and may be seen as a sophistry of 'reality'.

If you've got excellent credit then you should be OK.

if your credits tight expect your interest rate to be lower.

The Euro already dropped allot. And expectations are that the Euro will be weaker than the Dollar in the future. Speculations are that when America recovers from this recession, Europe will start with one.

Holland is already feeling this crap.

The house prices dropped by 0.3% (maybe more now) this month. The house prices have not dropped for as long as i can remember.

ING recieved a 10 billion Euro injection from the government, because it needed some liquidity.

Fortis/ABN AMRO is now a state bank, because the Dutch part is bought over by the government.

And rumors are that AEGON might be in trouble too. All in all, Europe is starting to feel this bad mojo too!

Currently i am doing International business mangement studies, and i am wondering if there is any future for me if i finish it

That's not really true. Even with good credit, rates are up even though the Fed rate was recently lowered (and they're talking about taking off another .75% next week which would bring us to our lowest Fed rate in history). My brother's been in the market to buy a house in VA for about a year but hasn't found anything that he and his wife agree on, or they've been outbid. Now, he's about ready to throttle his banker because she didn't lock in his rate a month ago when the credit market started to lock up and he's looking at another 1-1.5%, which will tack on another $100+/month to his payments...for 30 years.

Oh, and he's got excellent credit, btw.
