In what could turn out to be the most expensive bank failure ever, troubled mortgage lender IndyMac Bank was taken over by federal regulators on Friday. According to the FDIC, 10,000 IndyMac customers could lose as much as $500 million in uninsured deposits. The agency says the failure will cost the Deposit Insurance Fund between $4 billion and $8 billion, based on preliminary estimates.
Regulators seize troubled IndyMac
One of the largest US mortgage lenders, the California-based IndyMac Bank, has collapsed amid a growing credit crisis.

What is the big idea of Richard Thaler, the economist quoted by David Cameron and Barack Obama? It comes down to this: you're not as smart as you think. Humans, he believes, are less rational and more influenced by peer pressure and suggestion than governments and economists reckon.
From Obama to Cameron, why do so many politicians want a piece of Richard Thaler?

The US Treasury is studying plans to inject as much as $15bn (2.75bn) of fresh capital into beleaguered mortgage firms Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae future may rest with US Treasury
Fears of a meltdown in the US mortgage market are likely to stoke further falls in the value of equities this week, with billions of pounds expected to be wiped from company values around the world. Three of Wall Street's biggest investment banks, Merrill Lynch, Citigroup and JPMorgan, will all post second-quarter earnings with new writedowns likely to exacerbate market jitters. But it's the fate of the American mortgage giants, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which halved in value in two days at the end of last week, that will dominate proceedings at tomorrow's opening bell.
