I find it highly unlikely that these options market making firms would have dabbled heavily into Euro Debt

The size of the position is not the issue as much as it is the extent of the leverage - unwinding by one firm subject to a call causes the cascade.

Yea, I get that........but its gone viral on the net and the implications being touted is a dollar freeze up worse than what happened in 2009. I don’t see any documented evidence of that.
