am reading this morning some very credible reports that large money market
instruments
are holding CDO, CLO and similar positions. these were bought to reach a target
yield
but now assets are being marked to less than par and redeeming funds will
present
problems. Wall Street has sold CDOs and CLOs to many public pension funds who
are now
attempting to reject those sales and asking to be paid par back to the funds.
wonder how many 401k plans and large banks are in this mess and how long it will
take
for it to hit the news?
employees of large corporations with money market and stable value type accounts
may
incur large losses
