/TX	`The share prices of several thrift institutions that stand to`
	`benefit handsomely from an expected federal lawsuit settlement`
	`have taken wing as the case enters its final phase; the cash`
	`windfall to some may be so large that they become takeover`
	`candidates.`
	`The final hearing in the case will set a dollar amount on the`
	`damage caused by a government flip-flop on accounting procedures`
	`for goodwill - an act that cost thrift institutions billions of`
	`dollars. Observers are betting that a huge cash settlement is in`
	`the offing, which has caused share prices of several thrifts to`
	`skyrocket. The situation has also fueled speculation that many of`
	`those thrifts will be taken over by larger banks.`
	`The suit was filed by Glendale Federal Bank against the U.S.`
	`government in 1990 after the California thrift was left twisting`
	`in the wind following its purchase - at the government's urging -`
	`of a failed savings and loan.`
	`In opening arguments, Glendale Fed claimed that the primary`
	`reason it agreed to buy First Federal Savings & Loan of Broward`
	`County, a failing Florida S&L, was the government's assurance`
	`that it could amortize the goodwill over 40 years. After reaching`
	`many such agreements with other savings banks as a way to help`
	`resolve the massive S&L failures of the 1980s, the government`
	`suddenly changed its mind in 1989, decreasing the amortization`
	`period to five years.`
	`( . . .)`
	`trade on the secondary market, are based on receiving 25% of any`
	`settlement CalFed receives. Those certificates, too, continue to`
	`tick up as the lawsuit progresses. - Gregg Wirth`
