[Lecture Overview]
The bankruptcy of Lehman's market-making businesses unleashed almost perfectly negatively correlated risks back to the hands of market players. Bundled together, aggregate market risks were very small. In separate and decentralized hands, the pressure on the market capacity to digest these risks at any one time could be humongous resulting in huge transitory price movements.
Understanding leverage is a key to understand financial crises and contagion.
Dr. Chi-fu Huang (黃奇輔博士) is the co-author, with R. Litzenberger, of Foundations for Financial Economics, a distinguished textbook for economics and finance graduate students.

Penney Professorship in finance when he left MIT in the summer of 1994. Dr. Huang has made major contributions to the theory of financial economics, and has written on dynamic general equilibrium theory, intertemporal utility theory, and the theory of individual consumption and portfolio decisions.
