NN,

As you know, Bulldozer is making me get much more circumspect about what I post on the public portion of these threads. Some people think our portfolio is composed of what we post on and that's no longer true, we don't post on any new names.

Here's the big issue, one of the big prime brokerage shops I know well went out with around $100 million in margin calls yesterday alone. I'm wondering how widespread excess leverage is in the hedge fund environment and how many speculative funds will shut down after this quarter?

I think you're associated with another major prime brokerage player, let me know if you can nose around about the rate of failure.

Same question for you Wiz, I don't know what prime brokerage you guys have tight relationships with, but I think I might know.
