3 Cents On The Dollar: Hedge Funds Gorge On LA Fire Claims As Sacramento's Crackdown Goes Up In Smoke
Nearly two years after the Eaton and Palisades fires torched an estimated $40 billion in insured property, nobody has figured out who ultimately pays. Wall Street has decided that's the perfect time to buy.
