Honest question. Do you think that the many individuals working at big banks during 2008 did something wrong? I think there is a huge difference between what individual retail traders do and what is done at the big banks on Wall Street.

This movie was an indictment of that. I'm surprised you're not seeing that. That is what my original point was in my first comment.

Totally irrelvant, I'm only addressing the fire sale and the CEO speech.

There is zero difference from a wsber selling an option and one of the traders in that scene selling a bunch of mbs.

Your original point is a red herring.
