Happy Halloween: What is your scariest investing ghost story?
Views 13K Contents 70

trick or treat

As the financial crisis was simmering in 2006 and 2007, some financial services companies began to look like bargains as fundamentals began to deteriorate. One that looked really cheap was Washington Mutual. I was heartened by the fact that several value-oriented US mutual fund portfolio managers that I respected owned a significant amount of the name.
Needless to say, the investment didn’t pan out. The US FDIC took over Washington Mutual on September 25, 2008, and JPMorgan  bought it for $1.9 billion.
