Must Credit. some other relationship with the company. It supercedes the earlier list we published on January 2nd and has eight new names.

Let’s stipulate again that most of these folks disclosed Enron assets in the one-thousand to fifteen-thousand dollar range and probably just had Enron as some obscure line-item in their investment portfolios. Others had much more. (Remember: the employees who lost their shirts because they had Enron-heavy 401(k)s had a piece of the ‘ron too. And they’re victims, not perps.)

In any case, the data speaks for itself and is provided as such.
