First Republic was "doing fine" two months ago. And this is not a "panic" either. It's not a socially caused problem, it's that they and many other banks are over stretched enormously beyond being able to cover their deposits, because finance these days is a hilarious shell game that doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
Doing fine huh? First Republic was "doing fine" a few months ago. How many more isolated incidents have to pop up before you admit a pattern?
Oh and this isn't a "panic" either. The root issue here isn't a social one, it's that modern finance is a vampiric shell game run by self dealers. They're over stretched well past the point of being able to cover their deposits. They cannot withstand scrutiny.
Doing the Weimar shuffle.

SVB was the first of many.
I've been betting on it for a decade. I buy gold, ammo and MREs.
Until the next one fails.
And then the one after that.
And the one after that, etc, etc.
Also that's weird, it deleted my comment and then posted it again after I thought I had to retype it. Mobile computing is such a shit show.
