no - he repacked them into an SPV and this is now only the junior level first to default... that is why he is selling them!

Humph. Just has the FSA (Fake Sportscars Agency) onto me. They've noticed they're MG Midgets not MGBs. They say they can tell because the MGB is longer, in fact they've accused me of selling short.

Sorry.

At last the short selling has been banned,what was that saying about horses bolting/closing gates?Perhaps there will not be another 81 new millionaires this christmas!.Then again,these sharks can usually find a way to satisfy their greed.

As I predicted earlier I think! So no opportunity as such unless you are sitting on some and want to cash in.

that was yours?! Like property top end is actually going up - mid market (in reality probably anything under 100k) is probably hard work
the fund that started the whole leveraged mortgage market yesterday went into administration, as the 3rd quarter redemptions start to bite expect some more big name casualties
