  • Sure a Credit Default Swap is an insurance that an investor takes out to cover his losses when he bets that his investment is going up in value or down in value. A CDO is a Collartized Debt Obligation. It just means that a bunch of mortgages have been bundled together and sold as a bond. A bond is debt where the holder of the bond is loaning the money to another investment entity. Thanks for watching my stuff.

  • So this is what they mean by gobalization.
