most important thing to realize here is that signature, silvergate, silicone valley bank all did everything right. they are exactly in compliance https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/silicon-valley-bank-followed-exactly-what-regulation-recommended

the only difference from others is their customers needed cash

Has it been clarified why they all wanted their cash?

not officially but we know why silvergate customers wanted it.

silicon valley bank has many companies with declining revenue pulling down cash reserves and i do not know much about signature bank but i imagine many of their customers are having increased need to spend more money on higher devices and are drawing down reserves

**higher priced services and costs (not devices)

Thanks. Wonder if fed will keep going with the rates.

i think they will. this is their goal.

the rates cannot save them anymore, it will be a shit storm

"did everything right"?? THEY WERE INSOLVENT!

right? I mean, they could have parked money overnight in reverse repo facilities and had no problems with maturity mismatch. They did everything required of them. They didn't do everything right.

its ok more will be printed to steal from us and give to their customers

their customers look alot like Democrat political donors

that is the CFO of the companies job to decide on money market and repo allocation or treasury direct utilization not the banks

and what about ordinary people? pfftt

this is laughable

so let the banks fail! no more FDIC, no more bailouts! no more money printing.

agree completely. i only point out that the bank followed all the rules to say that ALL the banks following the rules are F&$cked

the fules are fucked in the first place!

no they were illiquid not insolvent

"Operating models of illiquid companies may be viable in the long-term, but cash issues could arise in the near-term due to poor cash management or an exogenous shock to the company’s operating performance. "

SAME SHIT!

nice euphemism!
