NEW YORK - The Occupy Wall Street movement is focused on a day about a month from now.

They are calling Nov. 5 Bank Transfer Day, with the outrage focused on a new round of fees being considered by several of the nation's biggest financial institutions.

On Nov. 5 organizers are calling for people to open an account with a credit union, transfer your funds, and then close your bank account.

More than 20,000 people said they plan on doing it on a Facebook page dedicated to the event.
