peHUB First Read

Some links to kick off your Friday:

* Simon Walker asks Jon Moulton to shut up. peHUB didn’t realize that private equity pros were expected to fall in line behind their lobbyists.

* Cerberus says that Daimler distorted the Chrysler numbers.

* Wilbur Ross jumps into the bond insurance game. At least that puts him at break-even. Warburg Pincus is already underwater on MBIA. Patience, patience.

* UBS: $160 million in Wall Street writedowns so far, another $440 million to go. 

* Steve Schwarzman’s school ties.
