<> <> With the economic downturn, rising unemployment, decline in house prices, and limited ability for consumers to continue using their homes as an ATM; credit card debt is poised to be the next disaster in the financial sector with bearish outlooks for credit lenders Capital One (COF), Discover (DFS), and American Express (AXP). Credit card processors such as Visa (V) and MasterCard (MA) have also declined with the overall market, but are leveraged to the volume of transactions with debit and credit cards rather than>>...

<> I love plastic. I love the convenience, I love the loyality points, I love the security, and I love paying off the balance so it doesn't cost me anything. People forget that MA is not exposed to credit risk; they have a transaction-based model. These guys have a huge market share, the world is moving away from cash, and if you're smart and you're getting rewards from your card and paying off the balance, it's actually cheaper to use plastic than cash. . .it's other people's money for up to 60 days!

Twitter cofounder looks to strike gold again with Square
Filed under: Next big thing, Small business Even during a tough recession, payment companies -- like Visa (V), MasterCard (MA) and eBay's (EBAY) PayPal -- have continued to thrive. So it should be no surprise that other companies want a piece of the action.
And one of the newest players is Square. In fact, the mastermind of this new venture is also the cofounder of the wildly successful Twitter (which recently raised capital at a $1 billion valuation).

BofA Continues CEO Hunt – Analyst Blog
|
|
|
Recently, William Demchak of the PNC Financial Services (PNC) was offered the position of the next CEO of the Bank of America (BAC). However, the offer was turned down by Demchak. We suspect Demchak declined the offer as the pay package is likely to be among the least competitive in the industry, especially since the Obama administration's pay czar took the axe to seven institutions' pay plans, chopping the average high-end salary by 50%. Moreover, the bank is also operating under a memorandum of understanding with regulators, who are scrutinizing the top gun's every decision. The present...
