I would say the bankruptcy of Refco so close to the IPO. They had the nerve to launch the IPO, and ring the NYSE opening bell, when they knew they were going under.

Very nice list. I like how you included Cramer. I wonder when the "Cramer Bubble" will burst?

I agree with your list, but I fear that that #5 will move up to #1 in the years to come, I believe it is the biggest threat to the world right now.
