中秋节快乐! (Happy Mid-autumn Festival!)

It's that time of year again!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Autumn_Festival has context and stories, and says in part: "The traditional food of this festival is the mooncake, of which there are many different varieties."

There's more financial news this Sunday night than on most weekdays.

Lehman Brothers looks like it's going to file for bankruptcy tonight.

Merrill Lynch is selling itself to Bank of America to avoid a similar fate.

American International Group has asked the Federal Reserve for a $40 billion loan.

It's the phase of the moon! :) Or the phase of the business cycle, anyway.
