I was referring to an article on BAC a while back. They made some pretty sizable one-way bets on terest rates that ran pretty far against them, but they didn't mark them to market when reporting their earnings for a couple of quarters. The market then went their way and bailed them out. Article talked about how bad their earnings would have looked had they marked the positions to market.
