The 2008 financial crisis led to a deep decline in markets and economies, triggering massive policy responses. Encouraging signs are emerging, but full economic recovery depends on getting lending and borrowing to accelerate. Markets may be volatile for a while, but attractive valuations may present historic opportunities for long-term investors. 4/24/2009

The US Treasury Department has chosen AllianceBernstein to help manage its portfolio of assets issued by banks and other institutions taking part in the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) and other programs of the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP). These programs are part of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, which seeks to restore financial stability and ensure the flow of capital to consumers and businesses so that these institutions can ultimately attract both private and public capital. 4/22/2009
