Gersh, (or anyone else) I have a question regarding the possible continued fallout from the LTCM debacle. Interesting article detailing the history of LTCM in today's WSJ. My question is: Given that both Barron's and WSJ confirm that most hedge funds only permit their investors to redeem equity once a year, what are the possible ramifications should we see an outflow of capital from at least the most radical hedge funds similiar to LTCM(not necessarily bear funds)?? I understand that LTCM hasn't unwound its positions, but merely recapitalized them with the Fed orchestrated cash infusion. Regards, Ron

Gersh - what if the money market funds go into bonds? Or just stay put as they might if we get a sharp sell off? I'm not at all convinced these things work according to Hoyle/Gersh. E
