1998 Bailout

Bear Stearns declined to participate. Hmm. I wonder if that's why BS was fed to the wolves in 2008. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.74.152.146 (talk) 13:56, 2 April 2008 (UTC)


It wasn't fed to the wolves. Shareholders got $ 10.- per share up from the original offer of $ 2.- Gatorinvancouver (talk) 01:48, 3 January 2010 (UTC

There was a mistake in the list of banks that agreed to participate in the bailout. Lehman actually declined to participate (even though it said here on Wikipedia that they contributed 100 million). Some people even speculate that this is the reason Lehman was not saved in 2008.
