The Fed just effectively nationalized AIG! Any thoughts?
Not too much of a surprise, actually. What is most worrying is that Monday morning Treasury and Fed said no-way on a bailout, and 36 hours later they are lending $85B. What exactly did they see on AIG's balance sheet that scared the pants off them?
I must say it is pretty punitive terms. AIG is going to be sliced and diced like a lechon at a Cuban Christmas Eve party. If it's sold quickly enough, we (the taxpayers) may avoid most of the pain on that one.
