Spain’s government is ready to inject 19 billion euros into ailing lender Bankia, in what would be the largest bank bailout in the nation’s history. In related news Standard & Poor’s cut Bankia and Banco Popular Espanol to junk status. They were downgraded to BB+ from BBB-. |
Markets will be closed Monday in honor of Memorial Day. Have a safe holiday. |
