Seriously, this chart doesn't make too much sense, either. I would rather want to see: * How many derivatives directly cancel out each other. * How many derivatives are the form "We lend you money now and you'll pay us back" * How many derivatives are of the form "The nominal sum is huge, but the actual money being paid is almost zero" * How many derivatives can be used as security against something else. * How many derivatives can fail without affecting anything.
