If CDO's are being marked down today, is that at the end of the day or midday. In otherwords, when does that get reflected in the stock/option prices. Today? or do I need to hold my positions until Monday?

The Hedgies are marking to market now, but it won't be final until close of business.

Margin calls, if they're going to happen, will start going out today and accelerate through the weekend and next week.

As for reflection in stock and option prices, there is no way to know when that happens. People ARE trying to shove this under the rug.

Takes time to mark it all up but that and the reasonable time to put it on the market is about all you get.
