Bank Failure Update


2009 total hit 92 on Friday, finally including Corus Bank. The Fund drifted further into negative territory, all but insuring another special assessment in early 2010 (there are already plans for a special assessment later this year). As I've noted in the past, this is the worst time to increase bank expenses. How the FDIC saw fit to charge zero premiums for several years is well beyond my ability to comprehend.
