It does seem hard to see how the lenders could make margin calls and sell collateral fast enough to protect themselves if the debt-to-equity ratio is 28:1. If some financial whiz kids are reading these comments, maybe they can enlighten us (or just agree with you that the loans are “stupid”).

When this is all untangled, a lot of the “shareholders” will turn out to be widows and orphans. Count on it.
