Washington Mutual could be next in line
Deposit insurance system may face WaMu test
Most people are talking about Lehman Bros at the moment, which probably only has about 3 hours left to live, but that's mostly of immediate concern only to people in the City. Washington Mutual going down would be like Nationwide going down here, and I don't think you could underestimate how much of an impact that would have.

AIG is a close second!
I think AIG has only till 25th September to sell off some assets (AIG stock fell 46% last week). It’s a pity they don’t own Ronaldo, instead of just sponsoring Man U.
General Motors said on Friday the US Auto industry needs more cheap loans – taking the total to $50bn worth. Delphi passed $3.5bn in pension obligations to GM last week. Delphi has been making losses on GM’s parts for 3 years, now. Nobody can see profits anytime soon!
