Citigroup is set to lay off 50K of their employees in the headlines today.
Check CNN for the details.

Does anyone know of a legitamate list of safe/troubled banks? It's very difficult to make heads and tails of all the information scattered around.

I would like to know too. I don't think it's possible though, there's too many things happening that can change the outcome easily.

I think all banks are distressed - just to different degrees.

I would definitely stay away from Citibank and BofA. JPMorgan Chase and HSBC are pretty safe.

No bank is safe, even thought it could be that credit unions are safer, because they don't tend to invest wildly like the other banks.

My bank, PNC claims they are safe. I have not read or heard anything negative about their financial situation.
