Nine more U.S. banks, all owned by the same Illinois holding company, were closed Friday by regulators, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said U.S. Bank of Minneapolis would assume their deposits.

The closings brought the 2009 total to 115 in 2009 -- the first year since 1992 that more than 100 banks have gone under.

The banks as of Sept. 30 had combined assets of $19.4 billion and deposits of $15.4 billion, the FDIC said.

The deposit insurance fund will take an estimated $2.5 billion hit, the FDIC said.

Closed banks:

North Houston Bank, Houston, TX
Madisonville State Bank, Madisonville, TX
Citizens National Bank, Teague, TX
Park National Bank, Chicago, IL
Pacific National Bank, San Francisco, CA
California National Bank, Los Angeles, CA
San Diego National Bank, San Diego, CA
Community Bank of Lemont, Lemont, IL
Bank USA, NA, Phoenix, AZ

Some experts say to expect at least 100 more within the next 12 months. A few have even said it could be up to 1000.

Bad, bad news.

While this isn't good, it isn't as bad as during the 80's when every year they averaged around 100 bank failures and from 1989-1992 there were an average of 500 bank failures per year.

The FDIC was created to take hits like this. If they weren't there those banks would fail and the people that had money deposited in them would just lose that money.

It IS good.. people will have to go some place. New banks will pop up that ACTUALLY WORK not run by people who can't adapt. This is the chance of a lifetime so many opportunities will be coming

DAMN!

About a year ago I had some sales guy all over me to switch to California national bank. I kept telling him no way I was leaving BofA because they are pretty huge and fearful of the bank closing.

All this shit is so wrong it's not even funny. All thats going on here is the too big to fail are getting bigger. Here's how they are "saving" the economy. We gave them shitloads of tax payer money to recapitalize their banks. They don;t lend to us or these other smaller banks. The FDIC goes broke shutting the smaller banks down paying off all the bad assets making them nice and clean institutions and hands them off to the bigger banks to increase their capital. Now if that isn't enough. The big banks are now lending likely tax payer money to the FDIC because they are broke so they can close more smaller banks down so they can then snatch them up for pennies on the dollar plus make interest on the whole deal to boot.
