Taking C and BAC out of the DJIA will give the market a short term artificial boost since the DJIA is the most widely reported market indicator. I doubt that they will be replaced by other bank stocks. Of course, any changes will occur over a weekend. In my opinion, nationalization is a real...

Just wait a couple of days for the professionals to get their ducks in a row. They are busy selling their long positions and going short while telling the naive that everything is okay. The 12% drop was already "built" in the expectation. Just be on the safe side and limit your long side exposure.
