Recent Market Events. As many of you know, we have long expected the recent developments in financial markets. Excess leverage in all aspects of the economy had driven many asset values to untenable levels. We feel strongly that recent developments (and the ones to come) will represent a real opportunity for strategic buyers and medium term financial investors. The Fed seems anxious to avoid both a recession and a sea change in asset values. For more on recent developments please see the following links. We welcome the opportunity to discuss our views with you!
