In analogy, the fish monger will perhaps see much less business in the next quarters. Or, the cisco of the mortgage world.


The profits from packaging these securities and trading them for customers and their own accounts have been phenomenal. At Lehman Brothers, for example, mortgage-related businesses contributed directly to record revenue and income over the last three years.
