My understanding was LTCM held a fairly large portfolio of equities as
well - right through the slide of last year.   The biggest problem for
federal banking regulators was how U.S. banks could have loaned LTCM so much
money knowing LTCM was already over-leveraged.   There were apparently few
questions asked by lenders.   I didn't see the PBS program, but that should
have been an important part of the program.
