I certainly get a good feeling about the way the whole thing is unfolding , i think the govt. did well in slowly releasing bits of information in order to reassure the markets and avoiding panic .

The last time i came across some figure from tarp they had about $130 to $133 billion left as i remember wich should be planty enough to cover BoA and CITI if needed and some more for any others if it happens , and in my view it must stop somewhere and as soon as possible .

Tax payers in the states have had enough of it and the markets had enough of the uncertainty surrounding the banks . We all know it does'nt put an end to the gathering storm but it seems to make a dent into it .

The markets should grow on the hopes provided by those news and gold will still remain strong through it , so many here should gain both ways and still keep up their guard .

See u later
