Wall Street Trader Draws Some Subprime Lessons: Michael Lewis
quote.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601039&sid=a5lhZkEauCu8

money.cnn.com/2007/08/23/markets/hedge_fund_redemptions/index.htm
Hedge Funds on the brink ... Investors are expected to hit hedge funds with a flood of redemption requests this fall, but those who try to withdraw their money may be in for an unpleasant surprise.
Most hedge funds have "lock-ups," a minimum period of time during which investors agree to tie up their money and not make any withdrawals.
If funds take the extraordinary actions of using the "gate" or suspending redemptions, "this will be a real test to see whether investors can forgive and forget or if this will remain a black mark on the record of fund managers," he said.

Frank says Federal Reserve asked to skip House hearing on financial markets
Frank said he agreed to the Fed's request, although he said he disagreed with the idea that issues such as the prospect of a federal funds rate cut should not be discussed in a public setting. "God forbid we should ever talk about a quarter percent cut on the interest rate," Frank said, adding that democratic institutions discuss everything else.

Overnight interest rates are, more or less, being controlled by central banks. But a little further down the yield curve, where monetary tools have less efficacy, rates continue to soar. At three months, banks are still struggling to borrow enough, either from each other or external sources.

Most banks employ a “wall of money” argument. It goes like this: with commercial paper markets out of action, they need full flexibility to honour the credit lines they wrote to structured credit vehicles.
Their demand for money is so large that it has caused a bottleneck in the money markets, distorting rates. But the quality of the assets being taken on balance sheet remains impeccable.
