Amid all the market chaos occurring over the past 48 hours, one news item stuck with me – Lloyds Bank threw down USD 21 billion to buy a mortgage lender. I was shocked I knew Lloyd Banks was doing well from his stint with 50 Cent and the rest of the G Unit crew…but not USD 21 billion good. Then I realized it was Lloyds Bank of London who was acquiring HBOS not the rapper Lloyd Banks. My bad…the movement of a letter in the name makes all the difference, for future reference:
The Rapper – Lloyd Banks
The Bank – Lloyds Bank
