I suspect the Funds will roll further into the old economy/solid stocks like the GEs and the other big caps and wait. If the funds stand pat in such a way, stability will wind up holding everything together in the historically "safe" stuff. Then it becomes a question of outflows. If funds find that they have to meet redemptions by going to the well and selling those "safe harbor" sort of issues the market is cooked. But I still have a sense that there will be some sort of intervention to prevent a derivative or credit problem. Of course, we will never know this to be a fact or not one way or the other. I don't think it's a pie-in-the-sky presumption however.
