Unfortunately, most Midwest voters are like hygienists by their political persuasion

@plutus @johnserwach @rubecube12 Just a no-win Q in any case. "Do you want a bank run, or tighter credit?"

"Sir, may I have another?"

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @rubecube12

Of course Lankford spent all-night crafting this question; Yellen could've been much smoother

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

Podunk community banks are free to fail, but most of them have less than 50 billion dollars so thamwy are free from regulation even under the full Dodd frank law pre 2018. Yes there is different treatment, but that treatment comes with increased regulation

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus

I don’t think Joe six pack is concerned- he’s covered. Sure, the pines’s of this world are out buying silver bullion & MRE’s & ammunition - and the elites like the present company, well, u can only have so many accounts, amirite ? So I’m sure you guys keep your overage at the big guys. I imagine the Oklahoma wildcatters do the same.

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus

Yeah nobody is keeping there overage at some small cap credit union. Unless they have an exclusivity clause like SVB put on all their clients

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Same dude who wants to break-up FANG because they are oligopolies but it's fine to kill small banks and leaving just the top 4 is ok.

I keep receipts Danny.

Where To Even Begin?

The Fed's dimmer switch is lighting up credit markets.

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

How many banks have to blow up before we realize it’s the conditions they are operating under and not the excesses of a few bank executives. Dick Fuld at Lehman was 100 times more deceptive during GFC than Becket ever was at SVB yet no one singularly put the blame on Lehman.

Powell’s mishandling if monetary policy should not reflect on Biden. Yet I feel many democrats go out of their way in defending Powell.

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

21 trips. 350. We're growing at 10% nominally. Where are all those cash gains going? Not the market

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach I refuse to engage in a debate about alternative facts.

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

GDP NOwcast 3.2% with 6% inflation. = 9.2% nominal growth. You're the one spewing alternative facts concocted out of who knows where. Like Elon and FSD

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach Atlanta Fed doesn’t know it’s head from its arse. They could revise it 200 bps in a month and have done in the past. I track shit on the ground.

Not sure what he’s gonna do? Make a deposit ? Tell people “banks are safe? Tell other rich people “banks are safe”?

@rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance

I don’t think so- he hasn’t sufficient liquid funds for that- he has maybe $150B - this is gonna need more like 2T - not a damn thing buffets gonna do.

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance Buffett is not brought in for the money but to instill confidence while he gets sweetheart terms. The situation is worse than even I imagined - not just a regional bank problem or shadow banking or CRE.
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance it’s always been a specious argument posed by Will and Danny - “well the Fed is forced to tighten because they were so behind the curve”. The issue was never binary (tightening or not) but pace and magnitude. Duration risk at this speed was always an issue as Whalen and Bove posited months and months ago. There is a severe lack of understanding of how real economy works by the Fed -
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance just because consumers are still spending like mad doesn’t mean the cap mkts/lending environment isn’t in disarray. They have no fookin clue what they are doing. Most importantly there is no adequate evidence that supply chain resolution has NOT been the much bigger driver in shift to disinflation. Fed will never admit because it obviates the need for them.
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance * supply chain resolution hasn’t been the bigger driver

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12 supply chains have been the only issue.

Someday, someone, will understand that not ALL inflation is at risk.

I suspect the government is extracting brutal terms from the entire banking industry even as we speak. #AboutTime

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 even though severe hiking doesn’t work - Danny wants it anyways just to inflict pain - schady…

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

If there is a pause hiking will continue at a slower pace until rates are higher than inflation. I dont want anything. I'm just saying what I see.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance even in the 70s when we had much more slack and higher productivity and organic growth - inflation was still resolved because natural supply resolution and not Volcker. Now we have a more mature economy the natural normalization in prices is many times faster. Heavy-handedness is absolutely unnecessary and inflicting needless pain part of which is to buffer The Fed’s role.

@plutus @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

Is inflation in the room with us now ?

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance yes it’s called Uber eats when food delivery should be free

It’s never “just the tip” 😂😂😂

No recession. No collision. 372

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus thank God- a collision is the LAST thing you need right now!! Lol- does that include tips ?

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach

Yeah that includes 30 dollars in tips

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

But more will roll in over the next few days

Don't be distracted. The big story isn't "woke capitalism." It's crony capitalism that allows the wealthy and corporations to roll back laws to line their own pockets.

Free flow of capital is the essence of globalism

Petty battles is what people backing Trump (he's just the symbol, there's a bigger evil underneath) wants you to focus on. Eye on the prize Danny.
Mature economies, astronomical amount of debt, and you have nativists out there trying to undermine democratic govts at every turn.

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

I'm all for the free flow of capital. I'm against the concentration of wealth that occurs by bailing out failures over and over again. Free flow of capital does not mean the printing of money suppory elites

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

I get the feeling of unfairness - many disparate underprivileged groups have felt the same throughout history. We must sustain the incentive system in our culture and not just singularly strive for this "faux equity".

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach

This isn't capitalism. It incentivizes bad behavior. This is bailout the rich and let the poor suffer. Its not possible without the Chinese working class competing for jobs via free trade. Its coming to an end. The reagan miracle is 100% a product nixon's detante. Nothing else.

@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach Once again, size matters. I believe capitalism is inherently unfair, and unstable, at size. We can argue about the size, about the number of tiers, about "rules of the road" for various tiers, etc. That's politics. But we cannot argue that a leviathan is the same as a perch, and that swimming in the leviathan's wake doesn't have important social & economic consequences—sometimes admittedly even good ones. But often adverse. This notion that "it's all capitalism" and it should all be left alone just on that basis, is toxic.

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach

They can't have it both ways. Socialism for me but not for you
