I posted this about a month ago, didn't seem to get much interest then unfortunately. In any case, here is a link to the actual thesis:

"The Story of the CDO Market Meltdown: An Empirical Analysis." - http://www.hks.harvard.edu/m-rcbg/students/dunlop/2009-CDOme...

Weird. Wonder why my submission didn't get caught by the duplicate check? Looks like both have the same URLs.

I believe that there is a time limit on the duplicate check, that way items can be re-posted after some time has passed. I'd guess it's probably 30 days.

You were just ahead of your time (but only by a month, that's better than missing by centuries like some people).

Thanks, thought it looked familiar. I downloaded the thesis at the time, and forgot to read it.
