Good post Ronaldco, but the writeoffs was what was sinking the Insurers... a little drop in earnings would be

irrelevant compare to the drop in the stock price that MFC has suffered.

It sad that the Bonds' profits just sitting there (hidden) and can be triggered on sales only.

What i am trying to say is the Regulators put so much emphasis on Bond yields and not the Bond prices,

then MFC shoud invest in riskier Bonds like Greece .. over 30% yield
