The Face of Bank Failure in America

Bank failures have reached 87 for 2011. This number is rather low compared with previous years since the banking crisis began in 2008. The year 2010 saw 157 failures and 2009 saw 140. When you compare 2011 with prior years you could say that things are getting better. Though, 87 banks crashing in 11 months are not saying much.

Bank failure is being seen all over America. The dollar amount attached to the bank failures for this year alone equals $2000 for every man, woman and child in America.

Are bank failures becoming routine or are we becoming complacent?

IS JOSB MONEY IN THE BANK? A RULER DOES THE 4Ms

By Kenneth Moore | Jan 10, 2012

The following JOSB 4M analysis comes to us from Michael McIlhinney.  My brief comments and analysis follow:

“Recently, Jeff H., a newbie to the Rule 1 blog, said that he was looking at Jos A. Bank (JOSB) as a possible Rule 1 business albeit one that is currently trading above its apparent Margin of Safety (MOS).  However, we shouldn’t just throw out JOSB because current price is above the calculated MOS.  This is when we should do our homework to see if JOSB is a great, growing company worth owning at a MOS price.  We know that, although the price will change daily, we need to focus on JOSB’s value.  If JOSB has great future value, then we need to be ready to buy it once it drops under the MOS price.  We do the work now, so that we can be ready to act if/when the price drops.  As I said in my Gildan post, JOSB is a company that I’ve followed for a while and really like, so let’s take a trip through the four M’s, and check out the sticker/MOS.

 

What is JOSB? 

 

Jos. A. Bank Clothiers,

Growth in the Age of Deleveraging

By Allison Jones | Dec 30, 2011

These are trying times.

In our largest trading partner, households are undergoing a long process of balance-sheet repair. Partly as a consequence, American demand for Canadian exports is $30 billion lower than normal.

In Europe, a renewed crisis is underway. An increasing number of countries are being forced to pay unsustainable rates on their borrowings. With a vicious deleveraging process taking hold in its banking sector, the euro area is sinking into recession. Given ties of trade, finance and confidence, the rest of the world is beginning to feel the effects.

Most fundamentally, current events mark a rupture. Advanced economies have steadily increased leverage for decades. That era is now decisively over. The direction may be clear, but the magnitude and abruptness of the process are not. It could be long and orderly or it could be sharp and chaotic.
