 That's stupid, because most of these large deals are equity. Look at all of the major transactions, where's the burden? If anything (this type of merger) is positive for the balance sheets because it builds your equity base to support the existing debt.

 The market sees as positive for financial shares to write off bad loans that will clean their balance sheets.

Stocks are expensive, but they're expensive for a good reason. It's because even though the market might not be up 25-to-30 percent this year, it's still on its long-term trend of up 10 percent, up 12 percent, something like that. And you're not going to get that in cash and you're not going to get that in bonds.

That's certainly a plus for the market.
