Like prescription medication, it is VERY good when used properly (regulated and rated) but can be fatal when abused as it was over the last few years. CDOs started back in the 90s and were great vehicles as long as the underwriting and ratings were done properly. the same with CDS. CDOs and CDS are not bad in and of themselves.

He didn't think that it was advisable for the markets in them to be revived. What do you think of the idea? LD,
