I don't see AIG going under. Too much invested in it to let it go under IMO

It could go down as an organization if the .gov decided to cut it up and sell it off.

A single entity with that much hold over a nations economy could easily be declared a national security risk and divided because of that risk.

I agree that it coulod happen but why the hell would they do it now. if they were to divide the corp the gov would lose all of the money they put into it. they could hold on to it till the value bounces back a bit.

This past two weeks have been nothing other than a bear market rally. No different than any other one. Just look at the volume over the last two weeks. very weak
