Its wierd that lending to US gov lead to losses.
What about China and Saudi Arabia with 3 trillion of US treasury bonds?

[Nowayhaha]

Even with suffering of Kenyans and the dissaster happening in U.S. still you dont want to acknowledge the Ukrainian crisis has had an impact and its not Russians suffering but the most affected part if the world is the Western and global South ?

Western world accepted to suffer short term for long term peace; As long as they have degraded Russia abilities; they are assured of another post 1990 USSR dominance for few more decades.

That is why Europe accepted to suffer from energy crisis - and wean themselves off Russian energy and minerals - and find new supply chains.

All evidence suggest they are succeeding. Winter is ending in a week.  They will have until dec to further bolster their energy and mineral supply lines.

We in the global south are hapless victims.

SIVB failing was the best thing in stock trading. We shorted that sucker from 178 and bought it at 43 to cover our positions just before regulators took over and halted it. I think when markets open on Monday and halting stopped, the same sliding may occur.

Basically this became a problem when people decided to cash in. Using the same logic, then all banks will collapse. Banks lend deposits immediately yhey receive it. If Lots of people wanting their money immediately will create a run for a bank leading to collapse. Trump guy Thiel yelled "withdraw" and everyone went in creating a panic that led to collapse. Do banks have regulation that a customer can only get so much in a given time?
The bank itself was punished for long term investing.

Sounds like a rollercoaster. Are you day trading or you got good brokers.

banks are in good shape as long as people stop a run. FDIC needs to put withdrawal limits before monday so as to limit the spread of fear, otherwise no bank is safe. banks lend to each other.

I day trade daily with the help of Artificial Intelligence buying low and selling high when stock is going up or selling high and buying low when tanking. That SIVB ticker made thousands of traders/investors millionaires in 10 hours. Never seen something fall from 250+ to 37 in less than a day. If Regulators had not halted, that thing would have run to $5, which would have made the same traders buy in bulk again for the bull run to mid $100.

I thought they automatically halt trade when stock is going up or down too fast so as to re-evaluate whats goign on???

Good hear from you. South Carolina - always confuse you with wakiwtu and mlachacke of Raleigh North Carolina. I came to these forums as 19yr old - now clocked 40yrs plus.

Anyway I believe we have made our impact felt somehow - gained knowledge - shared knowledge - wasted time - passed time -

We are here with old crazy fool from deleware and kimende...NJamba.
