Why did Lehman Brothers fall ? A Numerological View...

This year has created history when it comes to the banking sector. Among the banks which were in the news for wrong reasons are Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns and Citibank. None of the Indian Banks were affected much apart from ICICI Bank which was in the news for sometime. Lets have a look numerologically why Lehman Brothers did not survive and why did the others did.
Numerologically Lehman Brothers comes to 53 which is 8 (5+3), a number of Saturn. 2008 comes to 1 (2+0+0+8=10=1+0=1) which is a number of Sun. Sun and Saturn are bitter enemies of each other. Most of the banks were either acquired, merged or bailed out by US government but Lehman Brothers had to file bankruptcy.
Citibank comes to 19 which is 1 (1+9=10=1). 1 is a number of Sun because of which even after so much trouble Citibank survived as it was bailed out by the US government.
Bear Stearns comes to 33 which is number 6, a number of Venus. Numerologically the year 2008 is not great for Bear Stearns due to which it was not able to survive, but since 33 is considered the number of Laxmi Bear Stearns was able to survive and was acquired by JP Morgan.
ICICI Bank was in the news for sometime after the bankruptcy of Lehman due to ICICI having some interest in Lehman. But it was able to survive without much damage as the Indian goverment had declared full support on it. ICICI Bank comes to 19 which is again a very powerful number.
Axis Bank Next year looks like the year for Axis Bank. Axis bank comes to 20 which is a number of moon. 2009 is number 2 year (2+0+0+9=11=1+1=2). Axis Bank should be in the news for all the good reasons in 2009.
