60 minutes did a story on the FDIC doing after hour raids.
Taking over nearly 2 banks a week and auctioning them off.
The one they did the story on went to a "Chicago bank" called MB for pennies on the dollar, and guarantees on future defaults of 80% to be paid by the FDIC.
18 Banks have been closed so far this yr.
In comparison there were 26 closed all of last yr.
