What if you bought insurance from Lehman and laid it off to another firm? Now Lehman can’t cover your ass and you are on the hook to cover someone else’s ass. You might end up naked through no “fault” of your own.

Participant[quote=tucker…]i wonder if the fed is going to step in this time

The Fed is stepping in by accepting equities (i.e., stocks) at the Fed Discount Window. It’s a ridiculous gambit and it will ultimately fail.
