Would you not agree that this is exactly the time that these things come out ? You would of course recall the collapse of Equitycorp & a few others soon after the 87 crash put the heat on these guys. The linked article you posted was a good indication of where wall street is at, plenty more bad news to come.

Nick,

 

I do agree with you that the Worldcom fiasco is rotten timing in such a skittish market - I'm sure the short sellers will be out with their knives tonight in the US.

 

Check out this Herb Greenburg commentary on the situation:

   Worldcom accounting problems could not of arrived at a worst time, today was already being predicted as being very poor , now the market decline could accelerate.

  I will start with a bearish prediction that the DOW willbe down 350 points at close.
