New York, May 31, 2008 – JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: JPM) announced today that it has completed its acquisition of The Bear Stearns Companies Inc., effective 11:59 p.m. EDT on May 30, 2008.
Nach 85 Jahren der Unabhängigkeit schlüpft die US-Investmentbank Bear Stearns Companies Inc unter das Dach von J.P.Morgan Chase & Co.
Auf einer nur zehn Minuten dauernden Hauptversammlung stimmten 84% der Aktionäre für eine Übernahme der Bank durch den einstigen Konkurrenten für 1 Mrd USD. Im Januar 2007 hatte Bear Stearns noch einen Marktwert von 20 Mrd USD.

10 $ pro Aktie für Übernahme
Das ursprüngliche Angebot von 2 $ hatte die Investmentbank nach Protesten der Bear Stearns-Anteilseigner verfünffacht.
"Ich habe 60 $ pro Anteil bezahlt und möchte ihn doch nicht für 10 $ loswerden." Im Januar 2007 war ein Bear Stearns-Anteil sogar noch 171 $ wert gewesen.

New York Magazine recently said Bear Stearns employees didn't need sympathy because they were being paid to do, well, nothing. But that's not true! They're are also playing video games and board games like the word guessing party game Taboo.

Solitaire also called patience is any of a family of single-player card games of a generally similar character, but varying greatly in detail. The games are generally referred to as "patience" in British English and "solitaire" in American English, although "solitaire" is gaining popularity in British English due to the game in Windows.

Taboo is a word guessing party game commercially available from Hasbro. The object of the game is for a player to have their partner(s) guess the word on their card without using the word itself or five additional words listed on the card. The game is similar to Catch Phrase, also from Hasbro, in which a player tries to get his or her teammates to guess words using gestures and verbal cues.
