Wells Fargo to sell $10bn in stock

Wells Fargo said Wednesday it planned to sell at least $10bn of stock to fund its acquisition of Wachovia, the troubled east coast lender, to create the fourth-largest US bank by assets. Wells said the offering, which it plans to price after stock markets close on Thursday, could grow above $10bn. Wells previously said it would raise up to $20bn of capital, primarily common equity, to fund the $15bn all-stock acquisition. The bank said its purchase of Wachovia “stands on its own” without the US Treasury’s TARP scheme to recapitalise the banks and buy problem loans. Wells sold $25bn of preferred shares to the US government in October, as one of nine large banks required to take $125bn of government capital. Analysts said the bank may choose to raise further capital with a sale of preferred stock.

Wallace Shawn on Gossip Girl.

Gossip Girl, the preferred soap opera of the chattering and Internet-nattering classes, continues to bubble away in its second season on the CW. Blair Waldorf—prep-school queen bee, fierce fashionista and antagonista—has commanded the foreground with a cattiness that Erica Kane and an ill-tempered Siamese would both admire. Blair has thus far seen her clique assault Amanda's hairdo with a depilatory, taken a stab at ruining her own mother's fashion show, and crashed a reception hosted by a Yale University administrator, precipitating a hair-pulling tussle with sworn frenemy Serena. Nice work. In recent weeks, Blair has shot her claws in the direction of a new character skillfully portrayed by Wallace Shawn.
