A useful check : Figlewski S. (2008) "Viewing the Financial Crisis from 20000 Feet up" ( I think this paper misses the main point of the current crisis (which is that it is not the initial shock that matters (subprime related losses are about 3 per cent of US stock market capitalization) but the trasmission mechanism of such shock (the de-leveraging process)). Make sure that you know how to criticize the views expressed here.
