Economy not so bad as Wells Fargo bids for Wachovia

Wells Fargo ups Citigroup’s bid for Wachovia, setting up an epic financial battle. Because the WF deal is a straight bank acquisition, rather than a government-arranged shotgun marriage, I think it’s preferable.

News of the deal bumped the Dow upward.

(Disclosure: I bank at WF.)
