Wall Street could see record ’06 bonuses

This year could see another big round of huge Wall Street bonuses, according to a new report, perhaps besting 2005’s record round of $21.5 billion. Bonuses on Wall Street should rise by an average of 15 percent this year, according to the report issued on Monday by Johnson Associates. The bonuses are often regarded as a barometer for future home-buying activity in Manhattan and in the Hamptons. more [Crain’s]
