I think it is just the beginning. I honestly feel like we are in for a rough ride. The writedowns from these CDO traunches look brutal.. There is no way it's just some that were playing.

you know I read that Merrill wrotedown $8 billion. I couldnt really put that into context until I noticed that Merrill's whole net profit last year was only $7.49 billion. Maybe I'm wrong but does that mean that Merrill just lost a whole year's worth of work? That's outrageous.
