If it helps, I got the email as well. I only have one quote line that is NOT coming from CME and that's a vix futures line from CFE - not sure if these are CBOE ONE sourced or not...or if they just sent it to everyone.

It began as many of the startups backed off deposits and experienced tighter economic conditions - over the course of some months. The deposit base of SVB was a bit volatile because of the customer base anyway. This caused their cash cushion to drop to a low level with the bulk of deposits...

I don't think you understand what's going on here.

You know SVB doesn't exist any more, right?

I keep hearing and reading that they are prepping a statement to be released before the US open tomorrow. The assets are there, it was just a liquidity issue. The FDIC is looking at guaranteeing a certain percentage of uninsured deposits will be returned over time and making a decent amount...

I started as a poor black child and now I'm the boss at the Philly pork belly pit.

Yet another reminder why I can never trade equities again. A bunch of poor saps own a bank stock on Monday trading around $300 a share and by the end of the week it's all gone. This wasn't some offshore crypto scheme, it was a 40 year old FDIC insured bank that was the 16th largest in the...

Cramer... LMAO.

The Fed is years away from determining if digital currencies will be viable in the real world. FEDNOW (being rolled out in the coming months) is the first step to instant settlement across various platforms using fiat currency.

Speculation is indeed - wonderful. Too many folks here and elsewhere commingled the "making money" part with the "change the world forever" pipe dream. If you want to master the ability to get rich while pushing a narrative that can last forever, study the climate activists.

Are these similar to the "stonks" everyone is raving about?

If you want to criticize Powell, then that's what you are going to do. Don't let a lack of basic econ knowledge get in the way of that.

This may come as a surprise to you, but there are people that do not believe in TA, trend following or stops - that do quite well in the market year after year. Fortunately our continued success does not require a pat on the back from you. And arrogance is starting a thread bragging about your...

We said the same of Japan in the late 80s. The US is certainly in "self destruct" mode right now, but China has it's own set of more protracted issues.

Your bigger concern should be a white knight arriving and BBBY opening at $40 after a giant cash infusion.

If I buy a car for 50K and put almost nothing down, I'm required to buy insurance to pay off the debt with the bank if I crash the car. So I'm "long" the car while being "long" crashing it. Makes sense in the real world but they want to ban it here? So would PIPEs would also be illegal under...

You dream stealers are killing johnarb's thunder. It's up 27% in just a few weeks!!! Isn't that worthy of a few million more of your real dollars that you made in real assets?

We actually had a recession last year, at least before they provided us with a new definition of "recession".

prolly nuthin

BlackRock didn't say they were long, just that they have "added it".
