how much risk have they swallowed
flying the risk broom
my latest witchery do :
problem with risk
its
more like a tiny very powerful bomb
then a hog
when one of these
corporate pythons
swallow
too big a risk
you can't see inside em
not like a hog bulge anyway
all seems kool
"yup we can carry it ...sure we can
check out our profile
sleek and smooth
as a garden hose "
until the bomb goes off .....
so step back
and look at the globe closed macro
what does it mean
that "the financial system"
is carrying more risk
lots more risk then ever be4
well
the lines between cash and payment
are getting longer more numerous
more interconnected
more intricated
64 k question:
"so when there's a blow out
some where along the byways
thats particularly well located and timed
is this blow out
likely to do wider damage
to the systems fine structure
ie
given this greater intrication
is the crap out after
going to be more destructive ?????
the gut sez yes
of course it does
its a circular tale
premise :
if you make
more of the whole ride
on each of its moving parts
successful functioning
becomes more interdependent
ya ya risk builded up
modeled like plate stress build up
the blows get raree by some exponent
as the total risk brows larger
say its a 3
then a shared out risk structure
twice as large is 8 times
less likely to blow
so you build and build spread and spread pool and pool
always making the blow less likely
till what else
the puppy blows
as at leasst in this model it must
and the blow is errrr "way huge "next installment
what makes a greater risk
not the flip side
of a greater opportunity .......
total welfare wise ???????
