"Investors are once again clamoring for a risky investment blamed for helping unleash the financial crisis: the synthetic CDO.

In a sign of how hard Wall Street is trying to satisfy voracious demand for higher returns amid rock-bottom interest rates, J.P. Morgan Chase JPM -0.03% & Co. and Morgan Stanley MS -0.27% bankers in London are moving to assemble so-called synthetic collateralized debt obligations."
