Discussing Deutsche Bank and Derivatives with Denver Dave

With the news of the massive writedowns, losses and other issues at German banking giant, Deutsche Bank, I thought it best to ring up our pal Dave Kranzler in order to see what he makes of it all.

If you missed the story over the past 24 hours, here are two links from ZeroHedge that summarize things:

• https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-10-08/day-after-deutsche-bank-admits...

And here's something that Dave wrote this morning before we spoke:

Please take the time to listen to this brief discussion and then consider the implications that a meltdown of Deutsche Bank might incur.
