Of course. But it depends on what philosopher the followers decide to follow. :D

Copium sales are doing well throughout the world so I am afraid that more people will be following Mediocrates.

We will see whether these banks fallout will stop The Fed interest rate increases policy

 
SVB is a California State bank, so I doubt Fed are going to bail them out with Tax Payer money, FDIC will bail out the investor/customer because they had to, but I doubt they will do anything about shareholder, in fact, I can see FCC probably going to lay charge on the stake holders for non-sustainable risk.

The problem for SVB collapse is due to their maturity risk, it's not like SVB loses all their customer money (like Chase before) with high risk investment, SVB were buying a lot of long term bond and when the Fed increase rate, bond value decreased, and they have to sell their bond to convert so they have enough liquidation for withdrawal, and they can't convert because it's long term and the bond were losing value, hence the collapse.....

I think the DOJ and FCC are going to lay charge on some of the SVB exec.

They should especially as they were giving fat bonuses to themselves hours before the collapse. :lol:

I heard most of them are shareholder of the company, their "bonus" is as good as gone as their share worth less than the paper it was printed on.
 

Red Flags about SVB were Missed, Rep. Hill Says



Rep. French Hill, a Republican from Arkansas, talks about the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and its impact on the banking sector.
 
Trump's deregulation of the banking industry played a role in this lapse.
The banking industry should always be well-regulated, if not heavily regulated. One of the good things that happened to Pakistan due to being put on the FATF's grey list was the massive increase in the regulation of our banking sector.

Finding the right balance is the key, not always an easy task considering that the rate of change and evolution is pretty quick.

The problem here is that most are borned AFTER the '80s and '90s, so for them, history does not exist before the internet.
