On S&P, Moody's etc., I was told that by mid-late last year no one in the City was taking any notice whatsoever of the ratings agencies. They had been so consistently flawed in their analysis, so financially tied to the companies they rated that they had become part of the problem, not a solution.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
