    AIG goes under and the DOW is losing another 500-1000 points.



    I want to know who will replace AIG in the DOW 30???

    Time is the killer here, AIG must have been aware the issues for some time. my question is why the he** did wait so long to disclose them?

  3. Berkshire should be in the Dow and S&P500, unfortunately it's too thinly traded.

    Once in bankruptcy any inurance claim will only be paid by Court Order.

    Going to tie up the court system for many years....
