I will suggest people to go. We need to keep ourselves on top of things.
I think many of us working in strcutured area or risk area have feel the presure about the subprime market effect. At least I feel that at work. It is not just MBS problen anymore. Now it is about everything being "BACKED" by xxxxxx. People are scared to hear the word "BACKED".
