      I agree with Tom, the rating agencies should be irrelevant and should be suspended from rating untill the market stabilizes, the rating of the insurers should be dictated by the market itself and by other models because the current one obviously is not working well. The reckless prior downgrade of AMBAC and MBIA already had triggered massive sell off of municipal securities freezing the muni market to the point that lead to the auction rate securities crisis, massive write down of banks and brokers and bankruptcies, one more notch will cause certainly a lot of problems in addtition to the exisiting ones and that is not going to be pretty.

      AMBAC and MBIA are very well known for their liabilities, I would probably delever as soon as possible of those insured JUNK or NINJA backed assets, it is already known that the government bail out consist on having the banks putting this junk on fire sale at approx 30 cents of a dollar that means that there would be about 70 cents of a dollar reported lost, this 70 percent is probably going to be covered by some kind of goverment loan at certain interest rate, that means AMBAC and MBIA will need to post that amount as collateral unless of course they are or being delevering from those insured JUNK. Sad but Moody's rated those JUNKS as triple A rated and now come with this nonsense, I wonder where the regulators are? and what are they doing about Moody's erratic behaviour?

      As long as they hold those structured finance vehicles and dont make them transparent they will get punished to the pennies.
