I haven't updated this graph for some time ...

There have been 395 bank failures in this cycle (starting in 2007):

FDIC Bank Failures by Year
2007	3
2008	25
2009	140
2010	157
20111	73
Total	395
1Through Sept 23, 2011.

This graph shows the cumulative bank failures by week in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

The FDIC has slowed down recently, and it appears the FDIC will close around 100 banks this year.

There are still quite a few problem banks, so there are probably quite a few banks failures to come.
