Private Equity Funds
If the US financial system is to regain its health, immediate action must be taken to force hedge funds and private equity to be registered with the SEC. Accountability must be restored.

excellent point of view, greenspan hosed us all with his handling of Long Term Capital Management when we had this very chance you speak of to register and monitor hedge funds but he stonewalled all that opposed his ideas of a ‘free market’. but that is not all that is at play here, just like in any other bubble wall street thinks it’s invented something truly different, this time around it is risk assessment models, they got euphoric over the one thing that should have kept them sane.

It sounds like you’re declaring an investor reaction to the lack of regulation, which is fair. Honestly, I’m not impressed with either candidate. McCain’s solution sounds accurate on a macro scale, but can he pull it off? As a republican, I support no bailout of these banks so I’m in disagreement with Bush, Bernake and the like. Obama was good enough to address where the economy went wrong, he’s far left so he has the luxury of doing so, even if I don’t agree with his remedies.

Did it happen as you imagined? More money pumped? Less? Where do you see the market going in 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months? Great video. Nice work.
