Crisis? What Crisis? First Republic Bank Headed For FDIC Receivership, US Yield Curve Plunges, Bank Lending Plunges, Middle Class Shrinks Under Biden/Yellen

Crisis? What crisis?

First, First Republic bank is most likely headed for FDIC receivership, sources say; shares drop 40%.

Second, we have the US yield curve (3M T-yield – 18M FWD 3M T-yield) crashing to the most inverted since the 1990s.

Third, we have US bank lending crashing.

Fourth, we have a shrinking middle class. Way to go Biden/Yellen/Powell!

I wish I could sing “Goodbye Biden and Yellen.” And Foul Powell too.

Is that Mayor Pete??

This “unwinding” of First Republic is way more orderly than SVB. Customers left the bank with their deposits. Shareholders are going to get jobbed for sure. Well, shareholders that are not short in their positions.

I post the same thing every time I see a thread from Confounded Interest. It might be the worst website that is posted regularly on FR. I can’t imagine how they stay in business with an operating model like theirs:

1. Post a bunch of financial statistics.
2. Provide no meaningful analysis of any kind.
3. Add an inflammatory, cartoonish headline that makes a political statement but has little or no connection to the content of the article.

No kidding. He whined when money supply was increasing, now he whines when it’s decreasing.

> We got to elect ANYONE but Biden. <

The really scary thing is that Biden is probably the safest Democrat out there.
There are no Harry Truman or JFK types left in that party.

And once Biden is gone, the remaining Democrats will all be radicals like AOC and Newsom. Oh, and weirdos like Buttigieg, who thinks that roads are racist.

“Well, shareholders that are not short in their positions.”

People that are “short” are not shareholders.

Confounded Interest is a bottom feeder like Gateway Pundit, a go-to cage liner for low-information wannabe classical Americans.

It’s a classic blogpimp or dump and run technique.

My guess is Mr Kaiser is collecting royalties on hits. Or selling doomporn but still accepting fiat currency as payment.

Say what you want about this current “banking crisis,” but there were scores of bank failures in the 60 days after Lehman failed in 2008. We can still count them on one hand.

But that kind of sober analysis will not line doomporn pockets.
