Watched the conclusion of Frontline’s Money, Power, and Wall Street last night.  Proprietary trading gone wild, and evidence banks used a portion of bailout funds to lobby against reforms, would no doubt be unsettling for many.  The documentary certainly lends confirmation to the confusion surrounding financial markets (“even the people in finance don’t understand the system”), and underscores the need for awareness of the interrelated global economy on all fronts, including lumber markets.  All four, one-hour episodes available here.
