    • @WOTArtyNoobs
      @WOTArtyNoobs 2 місяці тому

      @@edwardwood6532 Yes - 'The Big Short' explains why the MBS market was crashing because it was stacked with debts that had little chance of being repaid and that the banks were 'casino' banking on contracts.
      Margin Call shows what happened when the banks suddenly discovered their MBS products were valueless and then tried to dump them as quickly as possible to stay in business.
      One of the first few banks (Goldman Sachs) that knew what was wrong, withdrew from the market slowly so as not to spook their counterparts and later had to pay a substantial settlement for their role. A few banks were even betting against the market using the Credit Default Swaps.
      Dr Michael Burry (as shown in The Big Short - he actually appears in the film twice!) was the one who foresaw the crash. If you enquire these days, they credit Blythe Masters with inventing the Credit Swaps in the 1990s and economist Nouriel Roubini as the one who warned about the impending crisis. No one was willing to accept responsibility for the crash and the people at the top managed to persuade the President to bail out the financial markets using tax-payer money and national debt to keep the market from failing altogether and causing a massive recession such as 1929.

    It's emblematic of the whole financial crisis that a junior guy who is 'good with numbers' realizes that the bank's business is a house of cards. The more senior people don't need much convincing, because they knew. But they didn't mind riding the bull until they were about to get thrown off.

      It was a financial prisoners dilemma. Everyone knew the game was rigged, but they also knew that so long as everyone went along with it, the game would support itself. They all knew that if enough people pulled out of the game, that the system would collapse. But nobody knew what the magic number was, so nobody wanted to be the first to act, because you could easily run out of liquidity before the market ran out of insanity. Michael Burry was one of the first to act, and he was months away from being bankrupt and losing everything for betting against a rigged system.

    This scene, along with the scene where Stanley Tucci's character talks about building bridges before working in Finance, are an interesting commentary on finance as a whole. In this time period, Finance as an industry paid so well that it "poached" talented people out of arguably more useful parts of the economy, to the detriment of society as a whole. The filmmakers were almost too heavy-handed making this point, but it's an interesting point and Margin Call is a great film.
