On the night of the completion of the liquidation, Sam dug a pit and buried his dog. On the side of the pit was the ex-wife of a passer-by. On the day when he personally buried his principles, on the day when he gave away his last affectionate dog, Sam. I'm a little tired, the pit is not deep, but it's so dark that I can't see the end.

Byebye, MBS!

When the crisis came, the executive committee and partners all thought of protecting themselves, completely disregarding the life and death of others. The shopping mall is like a battlefield, ruthless, unreasonable, greedy and selfish! This is Wall Street. This is the financial market.

Will Emerson: People just want the scales in their favor, nobody wants to be fair.

Chairman John said very succinctly: in Wall Street, you must master at least one of the following three skills: fast action, high IQ, and deceiving. U.S. bonds are the basis of mortgage certificates. MBS various hybrid bonds are converted into mortgages, and the discount rate and mortgage bond interest rate fluctuations are low. However, they rely on the volume of quantitative trading models to make money, so they can easily reach a scale of hundreds of millions. Balance sheet balance sheet, because the company has accumulated a huge amount of debt assets due to long-term transactions, and the company relies on reselling bonds to cash out to make money, constantly selling old bonds and buying new bonds, if the ending balance of liabilities is much larger than assets, it cannot be timely If it is transferred to other companies, it will suffer huge losses or even go bankrupt. Crazy sales are stripping bad debt and transferring debt. But people on Wall Street are not fools. The debt has not disappeared, but it has been transferred. Whichever company it is transferred to will be unlucky, because MBS in the mortgage bond market is often re-mortgaged many times, which are closely linked.

Margin Call quotes

  • John Tuld: So you think we might have put a few people out of business today. That its all for naught. You've been doing that everyday for almost forty years Sam. And if this is all for naught then so is everything out there. Its just money; its made up. Pieces of paper with pictures on it so we don't have to kill each other just to get something to eat. It's not wrong. And it's certainly no different today than its ever been. 1637, 1797, 1819, 37, 57, 84, 1901, 07, 29, 1937, 1974, 1987-Jesus, didn't that fuck up me up good-92, 97, 2000 and whatever we want to call this. It's all just the same thing over and over; we can't help ourselves. And you and I can't control it, or stop it, or even slow it. Or even ever-so-slightly alter it. We just react. And we make a lot money if we get it right. And we get left by the side of the side of the road if we get it wrong. And there have always been and there always will be the same percentage of winners and losers. Happy foxes and sad sacks. Fat cats and starving dogs in this world. Yeah, there may be more of us today than there's ever been. But the percentages-they stay exactly the same.

  • Will Emerson: Jesus, Seth. Listen, if you really wanna do this with your life you have to believe you're necessary and you are. People wanna live like this in their cars and big fuckin' houses they can't even pay for, then you're necessary. The only reason that they all get to continue living like kings is cause we got our fingers on the scales in their favor. I take my hand off and then the whole world gets really fuckin' fair really fuckin' quickly and nobody actually wants that. They say they do but they don't. They want what we have to give them but they also wanna, you know, play innocent and pretend they have no idea where it came from. Well, thats more hypocrisy than I'm willing to swallow, so fuck em. Fuck normal people. You know, the funny thing is, tomorrow if all of this goes tits up they're gonna crucify us for being too reckless but if we're wrong, and everything gets back on track? Well then, the same people are gonna laugh till they piss their pants cause we're gonna all look like the biggest pussies God ever let through the door.

    Seth Bregman: Do you think we're gonna be wrong?

    Will Emerson: [long pause] No, they're all fucked.
