Obama is meeting “the heads of the world’s biggest banks” today to receive his marching orders. Since Obama’s spokesman “declined to provide details about the agenda”, we will have to once again wait and see what the powers that be have in store for the little people.

Obama Meets With Blankfein, Dimon and Moynihan Today
President Barack Obama is meeting today with the heads of the world’s biggest banks, including Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS)’s Lloyd C. Blankfein and JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM)’s Jamie Dimon, people briefed on the plans said.
The attendees, who also include Bank of America Corp. (BAC)’s Brian T. Moynihan and Citigroup Inc. (C)’s Michael Corbat, are in Washington for the Financial Services Forum’s quarterly meeting, said the people, who requested anonymity because the meeting is private. More than a dozen of the trade organization’s 19 members are scheduled to meet at the White House with administration officials, one person said.
The administration disclosed the meeting on Obama’s daily schedule late yesterday without sharing details about who will be there. Josh Earnest, an Obama spokesman, declined to provide details about the agenda, and Laena Fallon, a spokeswoman for the Forum, declined to comment.
