thanks, i had found all those.

but definitively i haven't found where we are at now. basel II isn't truely in effect as i understand it, 10% reserve was changed under greenspan in 1990 to almost a real number zero, and so forth.

so just what in fact it is, has been hard to find.

certainly important relative to the cdo mess particularly when/if the AAA tranches really start to get nailed, for example..... and none of this stuff includes any of the crap that was written prior to 2005-6 from the data available.

which means you've got all kinds of stuff out there not even in the public record of any kind, period. but its on someone's books. and en mass its bank breaking money potentially....particularly in relation to reserve requirements and extending thereby outward to loan liquidity (ability to write a loan/and or willingness) and thereby ergo the stock market itself (via leveraged investments).
