Greedy Guys Wreck Economy!

If only we'd had some way of seeing it coming! Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are now all that remain of the five largest independent investment banks.

Lehman Brothers carried out its promise to file for bankruptcy on September 15th (SDNY file # 1:08-BK-13555). The Merrill Lynch / B of A merger agreement was filed as an exhibit to a Merrill Lynch 8-K filed on September 18th.

If you're looking for the Bear Stearns merger agreement, it is attached to an S-4 filed by JP Morgan Chase on March 17th.
