Hello George, A guess, <<deleverage>> process, the shrinking of the total book of trades and unwinding of loan positions, will see the majority (except perhaps for the absolute short sellers) lose, to varying degrees. If deleverage is centered around the USD-space, then the stocks, bonds, real estate, etc will tank within the USD space. And if deleverage is happening everywhere, including the USD-space, then it depends on timing, mass, momentum, and embedded societal savings. Chugs, Jay That is a guess
