Trivia questions on the Long Term capital failure:
1. Is the LTC failure related to GS delaying their IPO until
conditions get better? What exactly is GS role in the whole mess.
How much will they have to write down when LTC goes under?
2. Were the LEH recent rumors related to the LTC failure? Why
didn't LEH pitched in $300 million? are things there so bad? Is it
true LEH may be the next bomb?
3. Huge insider sales took place at LEH during the last few months,
finding out where the folks that did the heaviest selling work is a
good homework assignment. Why doesn't someone find out and report
back.
