Hutch, thanks to the intervention of the Feds - I belive that truth never came out of their total exposure. Rumors and facts got mixed-up so much that you don't know which is which. So, to take your or my side of the story for Gospel Truth is a folly. But, I do believe that LTCm controlled assets worth of 100-120 bil, which includes bonds (including now infamous Danish morgage bonds) and stocks. On top of that, the naked put positions on equities and bonds were believed to be above $1 tril.
