It was less, 592 Trillion notional, and CDS was 41.8T notional
in December 2008, down from 57.3 Trillion Notional in June 2008.

Exchange traded derivatives not included.

But the real value was astronomical (more than global stock
market cap) in December. I expect it declined quite a bit,
but the notional grew.
