Such a scenario seems to be too pessimistic.Recent conditions suggest that the financial industry in America is coming back to stability. Up to Jun 11, the Dow Jones Index has rallied by 35% from its lowest point in 12 years which hit on March 9. Some large financial institutions regained confidence by raising new funds in capital markets and paying back government infusion of funds. Although it is estimated that there is still a several hundred billion dollar loss in US financial institutions, the concern for the systematic risk of the US financial system has been greatly reduced.
As Wall Street recovers, more people begin to have faith in its future. Professionals in the financial industry even claim that there is no intrinsic deficiency in the operational system of Wall Street. Wall Street will recover in a short time and several reconstructed financial institutions will obtain good opportunities for development. Wall Street has dominated the global financial industry for nearly two centuries and has gone through numerous financial crises and economic recessions. More importantly, the US is still the biggest economy in the world.
