Echt absurd dat al die beursanalisten die crash niet hadden zien aankomen. De kredietcrisis is toch al ouder dan 2008.

Ik denk dat er binnenkort weer een grote klapper omlaag aan gaat komen. De laatste grote klapper, die de AEX tot onder de 200 punten brengt. Daarna gaat het eindelijk weer structureel omloog.

Ik ga in ieder geval voorzicht weer wat shorts inslaan.

AIG bailout: $127.7B and counting

The world's largest insurer has borrowed nearly 84% of its allotted government bailout, according to the Federal Reserve.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- To help troubled insurer American International Group stabilize its finances, the Federal Reserve and Treasury have offered AIG a sizeable lifeline to be paid back over the next five years - and to date, the company has borrowed almost all of it.

The government promised up to $152.5 billion to AIG allocated through four separate programs to alleviate a myriad of AIG's woes. Here's what AIG has borrowed so far:

$39.5 billion of a $60 billion bridge loan designed to help the company stay afloat as it sells off non-core businesses to repay the government.
$28.2 billion of a $30 billion allotment from the New York Federal Reserve to purchase $62.1 billion worth of collateralized debt obligations insured by AIG. The company hopes to buy the significantly devalued - and troublesome for AIG - securities for about 50 cents on the dollar from investors.
$20 billion of a $22.5 billion New York Fed program to purchase residential mortgage-backed securities that AIG invested in.
$40 billion capital investment from the Treasury Department through the Troubled Asset Relief Program.
The bailout total does not include the company's ability to sell up to $20.9 billion of short-term debt to the Fed through the Commercial Paper Funding Facility - a bailout measure designed to help alleviate businesses' near-term financing concerns.

According to Fed data released Monday, AIG has borrowed $127.7 billion, or 84% of the total and is expected to borrow close to 100% of the loans available as it restructures. The company hopes to transition to a leaner insurer, holding onto its property and casualty businesses and a keeping a majority stake in its foreign life insurance division.
