" the operative word is 'deleverage', and the guess is that pension/mutual funds and retail investors will be left holding the bag."

They certainly have so far. I haven't seen much good performance data lately but 80% of mutual funds don't have far to go. I'll bet there are still many people locked into retirement fund accounts that are still underwater from the tech bubble.

Can you say any more about the deleverage mechanisms and how things would get worse?
