Dave:
I haven't seen any data as to whether other debt instruments such as student loans, car loans, and credit card debt (!?), have been turned into OTC derivatives. Are credit default swaps of mortgage debt just the tip of the iceberg? Anyone on IP have any links or information they could share with the IP list?

Thanks!
