财经观察之 1190 --- List of trading losses

写日记的另一层妙用,就是一天辛苦下来,夜深人静,借境调心,景与心会。有了这种时时静悟的简静心态, 才有了对生活的敬重。

The following contains a list of trading losses which eventually forced major corporations to go bankrupt or restructure parts of their organisation[citation needed]. This list is not exhaustive. Due to the secretive nature of many hedge funds and fund managers, some notable losses may never be reported to the public. The list is ordered by the amount lost, starting with the greatest.
