From the Economist:
EVEN by the standards of the worst financial crisis for at least a generation, the events of Sunday September 14th and the day before were extraordinary. The weekend began with hopes that a deal could be struck, with or without government backing, to save Lehman Brothers, America’s fourth-largest investment bank. Early Monday morning Lehman filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. It has more than $613 billion of debt.
I think this photograph is heart wrenching.When whole financial systems are crashing based on investments in dubious assets, this small time trader finds his most valuable asset - the people who are his main customers, lose their lunch money! Sad, sad day! (The article here)
