Hey Turtle - thanks for that great article - best explaination that I've seen.
Doubtless you've already seen that Iceland looks like being the first COUNTRY to go bust.....http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon11.gif
Oct. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Iceland's government seized control of Kaupthing Bank hf, the nation's biggest bank, completing the takeover of a banking industry that has collapsed under the weight of its foreign debt.
Iceland is guaranteeing Kaupthing's domestic deposits and taking control of banks in an attempt to provide a ``functioning domestic banking system,'' the country's Financial Supervisory Authority said in a statement on its Web site today.
The banks are saddled with about $61 billion of debt, 12 times the size of the economy, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The government is seeking a loan from Russia and may ask for aid from the International Monetary Fund to help guarantee deposits. The central bank ditched an attempt to fix the krona yesterday as the currency went into freefall.
``This looks like a total collapse,'' said Thomas Haugaard Jensen, an economist at Svenska Handelsbanken AB in Copenhagen. ``It'll take several years before the economy can start to return to growth.''
Trading in the krona ground to a halt today following the FSA's announcement. Nordea Bank AB, the biggest Scandinavian lender, said the krona hadn't been traded on the spot market today, while the last quoted price was 340 per euro, compared with 122 a month ago.
I also found out that Iceland is about the population of Tampa Bay, FL??
Now the question is who's next????
HOLLA

The Treasury plans to start injecting capital directly in U.S. banks as soon as the end of October in exchange for passive investment stakes, a source told Reuters.

I don't give a damn anymore. Shoot all the clowns, shoot'em all
NSYE is not even hurting Bovespa's anymore. Only -4% today. With Dow at -7% we should be on circuit break -10% / -15% and total shutdown -20%.
So I don't care... Kill'em all
Buy Dow 7K (50% off highs). Maybe that's what is in the waiting.
Maybe tomorrow. See you all at 5000 (Dow) 
. Asia is gonna be crapping blood
See y'all tomorrow for total carnage me thinks (10th October was gonna be a technical key date I heard on cnbc). If you are Long, you might not wanna wake up tomorrow

While you were sleeping 
Oct. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke's push for the broadest coordinated interest-rate cut in history started with a weekend of telephone conversations with Jean-Claude Trichet and Mervyn King.
Calling from his Washington office on Oct. 4 and Oct. 5, Bernanke broached the idea with Trichet, the European Central Bank president, and King, the Bank of England governor. The talks culminated Oct. 7 in a conference call where they privately hammered out details of the unprecedented move. Also on the line were central bank chiefs in Canada and Japan.
Twenty-four hours later, the plan came to fruition when policy makers announced half-point reductions aimed at easing the financial crisis. Bernanke's work behind the scenes over those four days illustrates that the ties he's forged with counterparts abroad are helping decisions keep pace with changing economic fortunes.

Not that it helped anything.
