Smart investors bail once they see the house of cards starting to come tumbling down....
If you are a big investor, this is not exactly the kind of headline you like to read about the person at the top of the company that you have a huge investment in:
As you mentioned, the deep pockets aspect is another one. There have got to be at least a few attorney's salivating tonight at the prospect of getting some big settlements out of Manwin SARL Holdings (or whoever their target is).
They may have to hurry though if they want to get in before government investigations and criminal investigations/charges tie all the money up.
The Wall Street money may make government prosecutions more likely too, since if they were to get millions through fines/forfeitures, it could more than offset the cost of investigation and prosecution.
