"Companies like GE and Westinghouse, we think, are quite capable of competing there. The other international players, whether they be French or Russian, will be there I'm sure in a substantial margin," Rood said. [18]
Draining the Paulson plan to Wells Fargo
Wells Fargo may have decided to make a move as the passage of the government's financial bailout plan seemed imminent, said Donn Vickrey, co-founder and chief analyst at Gradient Analytics.
"At the time they made the decision, it looked a lot more likely that it would pass," he said. "You have the possibility of offloading these loans at a price that is higher than current values." [19]
