Bank Failure Friday - Jan 28, 2011

[joe_momma]

Happy Friday!

First - damn you to hell Daniel Shak - dumping your holdings the day after contract expiry, driving the price down unexpectedly and worse the day after I added to my stash!

With that out of the way - How many banks in the US will go down today (sorry - the Egyptian Central Bank is not eligible) ?

Get your picks in soon - for the tiebreaker - what state will be honored?
