Snowshoe, Qwest has been publicly flogged for two years now, going from $50 to $1. siliconinvestor.com That still left $5 billion in market capitalisation to erode. Which I guess will solidly erode tomorrow.

The J P Morgan wobbles are more worrying. I will review Jay's analysis [I skimmed it, gulped and decided to take a look a bit later]. Umpty trillion in derivatives unraveling sounds like a LOT of fun. I suppose when people get nervous about the stability of counterparties to their expected value, they might close a few positions which could start a stampede for the exits.

How exciting to live in such times. Here we are, right here, right now, at the very edge of the billion year long surge of biological development to the edge of cyberspace and we have reached Reynolds Number - the laminar flow is forming into very large swirls and turbulence.

The greatest things ever have happened over the past century and the most dangerous things ever too.

PS: Qwest, being a CDMA operator and in the sensitive telecosmic business, will drag associated parties into their little eddy of despair. QUALCOMM is one of those associated [in that Qwest sells phones with QUALCOMM ASICs in them].
