The Great Unwind near The Speed
of Light
New Media Asymmetries?

Dear ATCA Colleagues
[Please note that the views presented by individual contributors

ATCA conducts collective Socratic dialogue on global opportunities and threats.]
Having stopped at a traffic light just going red, it suddenly
became clear that the Great Unwind is now beginning to take place near the
speed of light generating financial hurricanes and twisters of category
five with several "New Orleans" equivalents in target range. The
near failure of Bear Stearns, one of America's largest investment banks,
is the clearest "red alert" signal yet that the country's financial
system is in the middle of a violent spasm which has the potential to spark
the worst meltdown since the Great Depression.
