Trouble is we are beginning to compile a rather large list of "too important to fail", that puts ever greater pressure on "the salvation pot" to produce money. It then is to high speed work at the money printing press and that will lead to yada yada.:)Max

how many 'too important to fail' organizations do we have now? Fannie, Freddie, Ford, MBIA, Ambac, JP Morgan, Citi, SBC... is there enough money / confidence in the world to keep them all propped?

Cheers

This is more germane to today's price movement. The point to keep in mind is that "too big" or not, they WILL fail. The mathematics are irrefutable.
