AIG failure would be huge, maybe the tipping point... their tentacles are everywhere, there'd be no place to hide...

But IMO Merrill is next up on the list for going down the tubes...

AIG is a Dow component, so look for some hidden support to keep the Dow from crashing.

Now it would appear that the Fund being set up to bail out the many institutions should also include Lehman. Will that be the case? Maybe not,but Lehman certainly has an argument to litigate. You can not pick and choose who you will bail out and who you will not. Goldman stood to gain much by having Lehman out of the picture. Orchestrated? Time will tell. Believe me,the truth will emerge.
