I think I figured out one of the prime culprits in this crisis we all are watchin unfold.
the amount of money that flows through the paper market every day is about 40% of the bailout bill. Sometimes its more, sometimes its less. so ostensibly, if bonds fail 3 days in a row, and cds's account for over 100% of daily leverage, the bailout will cover less than 3 days of loss. And considering that the bailout is distributed to more than just the paper market, you can assume that it would cover even less.I guess that is my point. I will get you real sources. 15-20 people in a single firm can blow a hole in the market like we are seeing.

at least w/the AIG loan they gave it at 8.5% and became the majority shareholder in the company. that's a good deal for the USA tax payer as AIG has plenty of assets to sell off to pay the loan back + 8.5% is a fucking loan shark rate for that kind of loan. so that one they did right.. regardless of how you feel about the fed bailing out companies in a supposedly "free market economy".

but, this does not stop Moody's from rating AIG as BB or B+ which undermines who knows how many untold cds or cdo deals that aig was tied up with in other pension firms and other hedge funds(the hedge funds are fine but the pension firms will have to retract the loaning that THEY have been involved with which will create collateralised loss)

unregulated markets crash because there are people that gain from it.
i think it's about time we consider a paperless economy, and full regulation. all transactions are monitored. every cent is accounted for. problems are detected before they induce a recession. credit rates are calculated exactly. the black market is reduced to bartering.
that's just my opinion, though.

eyesnine you are very right. Ive been looking at the problems that have come out of the gramm-leach-bliley act and the Futures Modernization act. A total hands-off environment for oversight has erupted in 10 years. Not to say that the problems began before G-L-B act ( 1999 ). but alot of the problems we see in the risk sector worldwide are due to this act and following acts that basically spawned an environment of "Inaction" from the banking sector.
