subprime fear

on cnbc last night an analyst pointed out that the total market exposure to subprime is only $30 billion but the market has shed off $11 trillion in value, thats one hell of an over reaction. Meanwhile the uk housing market is growing at 12%. We are slaves to the yanks, no doubt about it.

BUT, the Yanks did not ask any one to invest in the subprime packages. Still - an opinion has been aired that SA banks will not lose too much in this exercise. We are much more prone to our own indiscretions.
