Why was this story not widely circulated when published in January? This is the first time I'm seeing this. Interesting. Have there been even more major withdrawals about which we haven't been told? Big boys getting away with theirs....

And, another excerpt from another article with interview on rt.com:

RT: At this point - how do you convince panicked savers across Europe that the EU won't dig into their accounts, next?

CM: You do not. If you are in Europe and you’re hearing this broadcast, you know what, if you can go to your bank and take your money out and you don’t, then you better be ready for what’s coming. They’ve made the announcement. They are going to go after savers in order to save these banks. There is no other way to describe it. Jeroen Dijsselbloem, the president of the European Stability Mechanism board of governors, even though he retracted the statement, he said two days ago that this should be the model going forward. There should be no doubt on anybody’s mind in Europe or Russia that they’re going to come after this money.

some deposits may have moved within the banking system from one type of account to another.

And this registers as a withdrawal? I think they are looking for excuses.

The money is buying safe US Treasury bonds. /s

Well, it IS RT.com.

Whatever that is.

Now serving lokum.

I would bet that after Cyprus we have another big withdrawal.

Hmmmm....I wonder why????

Whenever you withdraw money, make sure to tell the teller it is because you are afraid of what obama is going to do.

This doesn't make much sense.

"[The program] was aimed at medium and small banks as the creators of the program believed bigger banks would cope with the crisis themselves"

And

"The first week of January 2013 has seen $114 billion withdrawn from 25 of the US’ biggest banks"

Because the insurance companies who are now reaping windfall profits from the mandates of Obamacare don’t pay for ~that kind of advertising?

Good post. Possession is 10/10ths in a lawless environment.

I don’t think this is such a big deal. Heck, at the interest rates banks are paying these days, it’s a wonder ANYONE is keeping any money in the bank.
