shows how vulnerable JPM is now after rising from 15+ to 22+
of course I believe the rumors, which are confirmed by firings of both the JPM and Chase commodity trading VP's

my guess is the truth lies in the middle somewhere
as in, $50B in underwater gold shorts, not yet closed out
they havent lost money if they havent covered at a loss yet
probably like those "infinitely rollable Barrick hedges"

cannot wait for the JPMorgan eruption
it will have multiple sides:
- Enron debt concealment
- Enron fraudulent conversion of debt to trades
- fraudulent accounting of nonperforming WCom, Arg, Russia loans
- nonrecoverable GoldBank leases after sale of gold
- just plain simple INSOLVENCY
- derivative events when the insolvency is clear
