SEC to Make Wall Street Banks Reveal Capital, Liquidity Levels
By Jesse Westbrook
May 7 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission will require Wall Street investment banks to disclose their capital and liquidity levels, after speculation about a cash shortage at Bear Stearns Cos. triggered a run on the firm, SEC Chairman Christopher Cox said.
The disclosures will be ``in terms that the market can readily understand and digest,'' Cox said today during a speech in Washington. The SEC will require the disclosures ``later this year,'' he said.

Spiritual pride leads to a lingering spiritual death. It turns the living being into a tomb, bright and polished on the outside, proudly ornamented with scrupulous attention to detail, and ostentatious adherence to the letter of the law — but inside full of corruption, and festering foulness. They love the rituals and the worldly forms of religion, but want nothing to do with mercy and love. It is a sickening romance with the self, unto death.
