A thorough and concise analysis of the Crisis

Thanks to all of you who have been so encouraging lately regarding this blog. It is a fun way to exercise (and stretch!) my knowledge of banking, M&A, and the law surrounding it.

I took a break from studying today and re-read Jamie Dimon's 2008 Shareholder Letter. Warren Buffet (at his own shareholder meeting in April) said it was the one "must read" piece that dissects the financial crisis we just went through. I have found it prescient. Read it here.

"Secret" Conditions Precedent: Gray Plant Mooty makes Deal Professor's website

With the bar exam 5 days away, I haven't been as diligent with my blog in recent weeks. My apologies.

But I just came across a MN-based post on the Deal Professor's website -- you can find it here.

PostScript -- I emailed Professor Davidoff regarding this post, and he responded by saying that he would keep an eye on my blog! I'm honored to have his eyes reviewing my work (better double-check my citations and recommendations).

Enjoy.
