    The twin crashes in US commercial real estate and the US bond market have collided with $US9 trillion ($13.5 trillion) uninsured deposits in the American banking system. Such deposits can vanish in an afternoon in the cyber age.

    The second- and third-biggest bank failures in US historyhave followed in quick succession. The US Treasury and the Federal Reserve would like us to believe that they are “idiosyncratic”. That is a dangerous evasion.

    Almost half of America’s 4800 banks have already burnt through their capital buffers and are running on negative equity. They may not have to mark all losses to market under US accounting rules, but that does not make them solvent. Somebody will take those losses.

    The Banking Collapse Of 2023 Is Now Officially Bigger Than The Banking Collapse Of 2008

    Yes, you read the headline correctly.

    Collectively, the three big banks that have collapsed in 2023 had more assets than all 25 banks that collapsed in 2008 did.

    When the fuck are they going to call this the Global Financial Crisis of 2023, That's what I want to know!

    Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) is an economic theory that suggests that the government could simply create more money without consequence as it's the issuer of the currency, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond.Jul 22, 2022

    Its all the same and mmt is alive and well in America.
    You could say we are living the dream and if your a rich banker there is no other better opportunities anywhere.

    It's like Subprime... it moves slowly, but gets worse and worse, like a train wreck.

    "Trading in the shares of two more regional US lenders was temporarily suspended on Thursday amid a widening crisis for the country’s mid-sized banks.

    Regulators stepped in to halt trading in the Los Angeles-based PacWest and Arizona’s Western Alliance following dramatic drops in their share prices."

    We have a Swiss Bank, and a number of US ones. What about German Deutsch Bank? They are pretty sketchy. What do you need to hear to see that this is going global?

    Bank consolidation before CBDC.

    We end up with 'Coles/Woolworths' banking sector.

    However, those with deposits within the bank could well withdraw their funds on the basis of a falling share price thus leading to a collapse.

    A leading banking group has called for regulators to step in and halt a wave of short selling in the stocks of US regional lenders, a trend it suggested was driven by social-media speculation.

    In a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the American Bankers Association (ABA) urged the market watchdog to do more to stop harmful short bets that were disconnected from the banks' financial realities.
