“Critical moment”

Pretty good summary of why the world economy is in the crapper - Worth a watch

Maybe shutting down the word for a cold wasn’t the best idea.

Or it was intentional to an extent.

I've sort of gone in and out of economic doom porn since the mid 2000's. The nature of the alt economic and libertarian/goldbug sites is to push doom. So, you have to take all of that into account. I will say that gang does seem to be on full tilt lately. They seem to be divided, though, on inflation versus deflationary crash.

I can hear it already. "It was not our fault. The worldwide pandemic caused the collapse".

But, but, but, how's this gonna affect my EGS? I don't wanna lose my high score!

(EGS scoring, like life is an arcade video game with the top 10 listed somewhere. Sheesh, banks deserve to fail pushing that crap!)

Someone claimed, based on a rando tweet, that credit Suisse was about to collapse. Has anyone followed up?

their swaps are getting expensive which means counter parties are hedging their risk (or just plain slamming bets) on their failure

you never truly know in the dark pool of derivatives and leverage how bad off a bank like theirs really is ... but in the world of bank dominoes they are likely 1

Deutsche Bank #2
Barclays #3

and then the contagion could get to the US

IF it gets that far and central banks don't capitulate or something like that

We need to bail them out with taxpayer money. We are living well while they struggle.

I was assured that Barney Frank fixed everything.

Was I misinformed?

It was a feature, not a bug.

Even Graham is not that great. He cares wayyyyyyy more about the youtube algorithm and how his audience will interact with his video more than the actual information he puts into it. Which is why he has to do so many takes, read a script, and talk out of both sides of his mouth.

His other channel coffee whatever where he interviews people can be good and millennial money was entertaining when Meet Kevin was on.

If there's one sure fire way to fix printing too much money, it's printing more money.

Their investment bank division has lost billions, if not TENS of billions over the last two years. So much so that they've already openly discussed unpacking, splitting up, or completely shutting it down.

They're selling their HQ, and a deal for 1.3B euros fell through today.

I'm not saying they're definitely going to collapse, but it's fairly obvious they're in bad shape.
