This 100%.
The government will let hedgies drag this out but.........if WE get paid, that's $$$$ in tax money. A rich hedge fund manager is hiding his $$$ and the government isn't getting a cut.
Government basically wants to make sure we get paid (so we pay taxes) but they don't want to do anything too overt and piss off the big banks. That lobbying money and "speaking fees" (ahem, Janet Yellen) is too much for them to give up.
that's why I'm thinking after October before the end of the calendar year. since the governments fiscal year starts on 1 October.
