Bailout Statistics

A list of organizations that were bailed out in late 2008 / early 2009 can be found here.  As you can see, the government has made a profit on most of the banks that were bailed out.  The biggest losses are on bailing out Fanny and Freddie, followed by losses bailing out the automakers.

Let's see how the stockholders of various banks have fared.  The following charts are all plotting stock prices from late 2006 to now (April 2013):

Here we see how the shareholders of AIG, Bank of America, Citibank and Morgan Stanley did.  As the charts show, the shareholders lost at least 80% of their value.  The widespread perception that the investors were completely shielded from the consequences of the risks they were taking is not borne out by these charts:


AIG

Bank of America

Citi
Morgan Stanley

For these other five organizations, we see that while the stock has recovered somewhat (though not entirely at Goldman), stock price has not surpassed 2007 levels.  The geometric average increase in the price of any stock in the S&P 500 is 7% per annum.  However, the returns from 2007-2013 for the stock market in general has been flat -- so these five financial organizations are neither falling behind nor outperforming the rest of the stock market.


JP Morgan Chase
Goldman Sachs

PNC Financial
US Bancorp

Wells Fargo

Note these are not cherry-picked results.  These 9 financial organizations are all of the organizations I looked at.
