Still #1!

OK, threadsters,

I know you were worried that Enron might lose its rightful place as the biggest bankrupt in history. I got a scare this morning with the Global Crossing announcement. I'm happy to say, Enron is still the clear winner!

The following is a list of the 10 biggest Chapter 11 filings ranked by pre-filing assets:

1. Enron Corp. Dec. 2, 2001 $63.4 billion
2. Texaco Inc. April 12, 1987 $35.9 billion
3. Financial Corp. of America Sept. 9, 1998 $33.9 billion
4. Global Crossing Ltd. Jan. 28, 2002 $25.5 billion
