Foul Play May Be a Ticket to the Emergency Trading Session If You Have Been Involved In the Production of the Foul Play

I would like to call your attention to these words in the news this evening:

That triggered expectations the investment bank is heading into bankruptcy and prompted a rare emergency trading session on Sunday to allow Wall Street dealers in the $455 trillion (emphasis mine) derivatives market to reduce their exposure to the firm.

First and foremost if the market is $455 trillion, what are the potential losses?

Second, who gained access to the emergency session?  Level playing field?  Doesn’t smell level to me.

Peace.
