-Their primary tool is interest rates hikes, hoping to decrease economic activity

-Fed succeeds, SVB fails as downstream effect of their increased rates

-They bail them out, preventing the exact pain that they were trying to create, in the exact market most likely to bare the brunt of economic pain
