    DB is a too big to fail bank.

    50 TRILLION IS THE NUMBER OF CELLS IN THE HUMAN BODY, THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM

    If they fail it will affect every man, woman and child who use fiat currency on earth

    Listen, I don't mind personal attacks, I don't care about distracting comments about DB cheerleaders and all that nonsense, but it's plainly obvious these comments are all TRYING TO DISTRACT FROM THE REAL ISSUE HERE, A TOO BIG TO FAIL BANK IS FAILING. WHAT WILL BE THE CONSEQUENCES OF GFC 2.0?

    WHy don't we ignor all the nonsense and stick to this question?:T

    SEE what I mean?

    Thanks for proving right:T:T

    Would you like to actually talk about the fifty trillion number? Or continue to try and change the tune to some nonsense ?????

    Your fifty trillion was debunked long ago upthread. Absolutely nobody is interested in DB apart from you. Why are you obsessed with DB? Is it because you want a bank - any bank - to default on imagined debts, to give you permission to default on yours?

    You've been predicting DB's collapse for three years. Do you think you might be wrong, at all?

    Hold on a sec, who exactly debunked the 50 Trillion number?

    Are you disputing the 50 trillion cells in the human body or the 50 trillion derivative book of DB?

    The human body number of cells is only an estimate and I suppose you could make a case that's is not correct, who am I to argue.

    But the 50 trillion outstanding derivatives book that DB holds is not an estimate, it's is a fact. Are you seriously disputing this?

    I suppose it depends which currency you measure it in, because in USD it's about $45 Trillion.

    Are you seriously disagreeing with the financial press about this number?

    How big do you think the derivative problem going on at DB is?

    Do you think it's only hundreds of Billions?

    Why are you responding to your own post with this? Have you actually been personally attacking yourself? I honestly don't understand, please explain?

    Sure I will happily explain again.

    The big question is what will happen when DB which is a too big to fail banks actually fails?

    Many on here try to avoid this question by distracting and trying to change the tune.

    Getting back to this question is key.

    But instead of discussing this question watch other attempts to change the tune again? Let's see if I'm right.

    Who cares? You've presented nothing in three years that suggests this is about to happen.

    I work in the derivatives industry and I am comfortable that you don't have a clue. "50 trillion" my ar5e.

    Let me put it like this. If you trade in a £5,000 car to buy a £5,050 car, have you got a £10,050 exposure to cars? Or a £50 exposure?

    Why should I give any more of a monkey's about DB than about any other bank? What is it you think you know that the market has negligently not priced in?
