We'll see. 300 billion in hedge fund money is following
the PPT arbitrage strategies. And, it will only increase as
the Fed continues bailing out "bad" expirations. Market manipulation
is never a good thing. Well, I think it's way too late now.
They have to postpone the inevitable BK, it's now or later.
Later it will be worse, though, unless they manage to
disarm the derivative bomb somehow. So far, the size of
it has been growing exponentially. The sky is the limit,
but I believe there is a breaking point somewhere on the way.
LTCM was just 1 billion in 1998.
