[Eril-l] Proquest down?

[Brian Simboli]

An apt analogy? Just asking.

From:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-Term_Capital_Management#Downturn
Long-Term Capital Management did business with nearly everyone important on
Wall Street. Indeed, much of LTCM's capital was composed of funds from the
same financial professionals with whom it traded. As LTCM teetered, Wall
Street feared that Long-Term's failure could cause a chain reaction in
numerous markets, causing catastrophic losses throughout the financial
system.
