These are companies I feel may become the next casualties of the current crisis points in the market if we do not see a Fed rate cut.

AHM was the baseline for my analysis and I looked for companies that appear to be at least as insolvent as AHM. These companies are very small and appear to be most at risk for a crisis if they are forced to liquidate asssets as AHM was.

The ultimate question is exactly how much exposure these companies have to the bad paper. Time will tell.

Market Cap: 37.72M Cash: $895.53M Debt: $18.02B Debt/Equity Ratio: 14.729 Current Ratio: 0.438 Large amount of debt -vs- cash. Current ratio is much less than one indicating the company would not be able to meet short-term debt obligations if necessary.
