It is still possible that no deal is reached, the report said.

I’ve already got my bid in: 4.5 zillion AOC dollars.
And yes, I think my chances of winning are quite good.

The bids alhave to be over how much government support will come with the bank. Right now, any equity estimate has to be deeply negative. I’d love to be a fly on the wall for this auction.

Maybe the Bank of England can toss in a quid and a farthing to keep Harry and Meghan from begging on the street for pennies and ha’pennies.

Kind of a short period of time for such a monstrous decision. Calling on “auction fever!”

Turn this problem over to Neil Bush! He saved the Savings & Loans back in the 1980’s.

Oh, wait...
