Don’t be afraid … I won’t have this as a daily column from now on

Financial Tsunami now???

Mittwoch, Juni 4th, 2008

Will we now face the “financial tsunami” Deutsche Bank’s CEO Ackermann was warning us about?
Or do the “betraying geniuses” have their work arounds ready?
The news:
Moody’s says it may cut Aaa ratings of Ambac, MBIA

Usually, if Moody’s cuts, it will be the second “big” ratings agency to strip […]

RUMOURS FLY … to find an explanation for the move
Newest rumour … coming from an U.S. investment bank …
