Unhappy Florida, Maryland, Utah Banks Seized Amid Deepening Financial Crisis

Quote:
Jan. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Banks in Florida, Maryland and Utah were closed yesterday as regulators wrapped up the busiest month for failures since the housing slump began in 2006.

Ocala National Bank in Florida and Suburban Federal Savings Bank of Crofton, Maryland, were shut by federal regulators, according to statements sent by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. MagnetBank of Salt Lake City was seized by the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. The banks had total assets of $876.4 million and deposits of $790 million.

Six banks have failed this month as tumbling home prices and a 16-year high in unemployment boost foreclosures. The FDIC classified 171 banks as “problem” in the third quarter, a 46 percent jump from the previous period amid the worst housing crisis since the Great Depression.

WiseOne's Comments, this is getting pretty damn bad now from what I see. I think it will be many, many years before/IF things get better. Damn good thing we have the FDIC now or people would be rioting! I guess this boils down to the fact that there is no quick fix to a completely rotten, greedy, corrupt, failed system!
