Nervous on banks?

  • Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is predicting an economic meltdown following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank
  • Ackman is urging the US government to take action to protect all of the bank's depositors fearing there could be a ripple effect across other smaller banks
It does make you wonder what could happen to some companies.
Or a company like UPS would use them as a bank?

That could severely cripple a company

SVB specialized in tech startups which were high risk. Should be no surprise that many of them failed and SVB tried to ignore the problem hoping it would go away. While they were busy blowing money on woke causes and employee bonuses.

here we go. almighty michael hudson commentary

the world is a mess, we have to change our ways
:

Rising employment rates make wage earners more uppity in their demands to at least keep up with the inflation caused by the U.S. sanctions against Russian energy and food and the actions by monopolies to raise prices “to anticipate the coming inflation.” Wages have not kept pace with the resulting high inflation rates.

Bailout will be taxed to banks through FDIC which will be passed to you. It will be delayed. VCs pulled their $ out. QE infinity next up. We will have to go from 31 Trillion to mid 45-49 Trillion at least. Shore up your assets. 100% debasement guaranteed
