I don't try to go there too much, but it's a very effective company.

Let me point out one thing, that all these companies are very excited to get the good news out as soon as they can.

You know, this is for a very simple reason.

I'd maybe be doing the same thing if I were in their shoes, but the bottom line is they could be front-end loading some of the best news, and we could still see worse things to follow, especially when it comes to credit quality and things like that, which are at the mercy of estimates.

Worth noting, though, to Citigroup's credit, they did not take any write-downs under the FAS 157 modification

matched
I just can't stand shopping.
matched
I hate it.
