  5. Banking clarity

    The federal government has taken over 17 failing banks and thrifts this year, seizing them at a rate three times faster than last year. At that pace, it will "nationalize" 85 banks by year's end, compared with three -- yes, three <em style="i">three </em>-- in 2007. Yet many analysts and investors wonder whether the government should be taking over more financial institutions, particularly a number of "too big to fail" firms that may not have the money to cover their expanding losses. The push for nationalizing big, troubled firms is coming from liberals and conservatives alike, as is the resistance. President Obama, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke and other top administration officials have spoken out against nationalization, yet their comments haven't provided much reassurance to investors fearful of being wiped out by a federal takeover. That uncertainty is hampering the financial industry's recovery, potentially dragging the government -- and taxpayers -- more deeply into the mess.
