... LTCM’s capital structure and corporate strategy have been treated as unique and a fascinating anomaly. Nothing could be farther from the truth. LTCM was merely an advanced model of the newly designed U.S. corporation. This design is the byproduct of a long revolution in academic theory and business practice that treasures belief in the supremacy of debt-financing and efficient market theory. LTCM, Enron and Worldcom have to this point been treated as industry-specific or corruption-related stories. This analysis misses the most important point: all these companies shared the same capital structure and finance philosophy; and this approach that is now dominant throughout corporate America is doomed to fail massively....
