So far it sounds like most of those running scared at the moment are those who borrowed irresposibly, be it home-owners or banks.
For those who resisted and kept or gathered their cash (me? China? Europe?) I can't imagine why this market isn't perfectly suitable...So long as the Feds "Free Market Committee" doesn't step in, of course!
