Big Bang Wednesday as $360 billion of Lehman Brothers derivatives settle, or don't.

My guess is that the credit default swaps will be like Y2K = threat of huge collapse but a fizzer.

Some will go bust as the tide goes out and they are found to not be wearing a bathing suit after all. But it'll just be annoying for their counter parties [though a few might also go bust as a result in a daisy chain].

No big deal.
