In September 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for the largest bankruptcy in United States history.
Over $600 billion in assets.
158 years of history.
Gone in days.
This was not just a bad investment.
It was a systemic failure built on extreme leverage, subprime mortgage exposure, and short term funding dependency.
In this episode, we break down:
• How Lehman used over 30 to 1 leverage
• Why mortgage backed securities became toxic
• The repo funding model and the liquidity death spiral
• The failed Barclays and Bank of America rescue talks
• Why the government refused to intervene
• The psychology of institutional overconfidence
Lehman did not collapse overnight.
It collapsed when confidence disappeared.
This is a forensic breakdown of the mechanism behind the failure.
