TMP's accounting practices eyed
TMP Worldwide fell 4.36, or 10%, to 38.21 after Forbes said the ad and marketing firm "glosses" over one-time merger costs to boost results. Forbes said TMP, which owns Net jobs site Monster.com, spent $62 mil to buy 39 firms in the first nine months of '01, but that wasn't included in TMP's reported $200 mil cash flow.

Public bankruptcies soared in '01
Some 257 public U.S. firms, with $258.5 bil in assets, went bankrupt, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said. That's up 46% from 2000's record 176 filings. They include Enron, the largest U.S. bankruptcy ever. Banks need to watch credit quality in their loan portfolios in '02, the FDIC said.
