Things are becoming more transparent. The mortgage bubble and the scam is just beyond anything we have ever seen. Chuck Prince is planning to step down as chairman and chief executive of the banking giant.

The fallouts at Merrill and Citigroup are serious. The magnitude of losses are still hidden behind the rugs and is staggering is proportion.

The impact on the world economies can be staggering.

Citi’s shares fell 11.5 per cent this week as analysts increased their estimates of the further losses it is facing on mortgage-backed securities and the company secretly decided to consider to cut the dividend to preserve capital.

Mr. O’Neal, Mr. Prince of Merill and Citigroup are the icons of financial meltdown that is continuing.
