    Dopey, that's just bankers looking after themselves. What about all the shareholders of LHB who were wiped out or the thousands who lost their jobs at Lehman because of the greed of execs who over-leveraged the company to max their bonuses?

    It seems you are firmly in "the worst is over" camp - along with most of the pundits. But the boredom you express is also reflective in various market indicators which likewise shows an extreme complacency towards potential risks to financial stability moving forward.

    People in general have become over-reliant on central bankers and regulators to prop up the financial system which has developed into an unhealthy and undying 'cult of faith' in the 'powers-that-be' to rescue the system from any future crises.

    Such market complacency is actually a pivotal warning sign that such faith will certainly be tested.
