I can still remember C at $6.58 low! I really think 87 to
91 was the cliff notes version of 2000 to? We had a market
collapse, real estate boom and bust, easy money and a financial
crisis. Rember the S&L bailout and the RTC? 90 and
91 ended in a whimper when nobody cared about the financials, not a
huge capitulation and everybody rushed in. In 1990 we were
upset that the recovery rate on CCC junk bonds would be about
60%. That is the same figure that S&P revised their
recovery rate on AAA senior CDOs. As I type this, I am
watching a CNBC commercial from Merrill Lynch telling me how great
they are. I am waiting for a tag line at the end " Asking to
borrow money"
