Yes, we agree here... people knew the risks... the businesses we can argue didn't... but what laws or insurance is there to protect businesses? Is it just the "supposed" good faith of the government backing the bank up... sadly that sounds like a can't fail at all costs scenario which is really bad... i could see any major corporation making the same argument tomorrow if tons of folks 401k's are tied up etc... also, saving a bank while at the same time raising interest rates to increase unemployment is wild... this situation is so screwed i don't even know where to start

Yes, no real details. Reads like they won't really help SVB but provide funds to keep the issues isolated at SVB. Don't want a bunch of VC's going under because they have funds at SVB.

The fed is going to have to pause the interest rate hikes. If they continue doing what they're doing they will go down a very dangerous path IMO and we will see more blood.
If the Fed comes out tomorrow and states no more hikes thru the end of the year, that will do wonders. |

Capitalism, which is almost what we have, does not afford bailing out banks. But we live in a political world, not a pure capitalism

it is a bailout, they are just creatively spinning it to prevent mass hysteria... which is why Yellen stepped out and made that confident statement... yet somehow provided 0 details...
"An additional step would be a “general banking facility” from the Federal Reserve that would support other financials with direct exposure to SVB so they wouldn’t have to materially change their business or take steep losses." That is the shadiest paragraph I've read in a long time...

Just heard from a former coworker that is wrapped up in this mess. His job is at risk. The shoe has dropped. I expect some government intervention at this point.

Yep, Signature is #2.
It's ok though, futures are up. Nothing to see here. The punchbowl is about to filled again, the rich will suck this country dry until there's a complete collapse and utter chaos. At times such as these, I begin to look around and wonder what the really big story is, and why our attention is being pulled to this..... |

Gotta laugh at all the ponzi scheme shitcoins spiking again on the news. They know the rate hikes are done, reductions are coming, and it will be QE forever. This was all so obvious once the Fed starting hiking rates, it was only a (short) amount of time before something big broke. Just what the shitcoin ponzis needed for the next wave of suckers. Wasn't it....four days ago Powell was talking about additional rate hikes?!?! Absolute clownworld shitshow with terrible consequences for the vast majority of us.

The link I just posted has the joint release of the FED, Treasury and FDIC. Clearly they were worried about contagion as many banks have similar balance sheet issues, plus several banks no doubt had deposits at SVB and Sig. If their deposits are suddenly worthless or unavailable, they have liquidity problems, and so it all begins to unwind.
Whether or not you like bailouts, or deposit backstops, they had to act or we’d see a collapse of the banking system. One outcome of this will be further concentration of banks in the US into a few, very large institutions. I expect a few forced mergers to be announced within the week. |
