| If people who want to be bankers can't interpret bitterness and take all their career cues from a single forum then they're not going to make it in finance anyway, so your point is kind of moot. I think this crash is useful for removing the tendrils, if you will, of some of the larger institutionals from individual companies--historically I don't know of any time when banks have taken larger stakes in companies than they've been taking over the last 8 or so years. HFs need regulation, investment banks need better regulation, but I think this is all fairly obvious. |
