thanks.

Had a conversation with someone - a playa, though I cannot say in what capacity - over the weekend concerning a market clearing mechanism for derivatives. Got some good insights.

It's not just the possibility of marking-to-market that mucks up the works, but also the fact that it is a global market. Also, it appears there is conflict about how the moolah from the market clearing mechanism is going to be split among the players.

Also, you want to make markets in these things? You can do well if things go well but on the other hand........
