A Change in Plans

It sounds as though Paulson and company are moving away from their original idea of buying troubled assets, perhaps because few can figure out who owns what mortgage (or part of a mortgage). The move now is to mimic Buffett and buy stakes - probably preferred stock - in financial companies.

This could mean something: the G-7 and EU could act - rather than just talk - in concert
