Looks like Lehman Brothers is staging a comeback, but they still have some issues with asset valuation. They negotiated the return of thousands of Lehman marketing toys not excluding stress-balls and paperweights. When the company went to the ground, this junk was mistakenly also transferred to Barclays. Lehman is paying Barclays $34k for storage and plans to sell the stuff to repay its creditors, except Lehman still owes over $200BILLION in unsecured debt. Their ex-brokers must be ready to get back to work and make a killing on this stuff! Beware of junk bubble!
