One of these things is not like the other. Chartered as a bank holding company but having refused taxpayer funds, insurer MetLife bears little resemblance, if any, to the other 18 companies that underwent the government's stress test. Analysts are perplexed as to how the government will value the company's assets or review its capital position. But Keefe, Bruyette & Woods' Fred Cannon notes that it's a good sign that the company turned down TARP funds in March. "[MetLife] would not have voluntarily made this declaration without a high degree of confidence about the stress test," he wrote.NEXT: PNC
