Silicon Valley Bank Closed by Regulators


Recommended Posts

Yikes.  The stock trading was halted yesterday pending news.  Now the FDIC took it over.  Bank stocks are getting hammered.

Quote

Regulators shut down Silicon Valley Bank Friday after a run on deposits doomed the tech-focused lender’s plans to raise fresh capital.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said it has taken control of SVB via a new bank it created called the Deposit Insurance National Bank of Santa Clara. All of the bank’s deposits have been transferred to the new bank, the regulator said.

Insured depositors will have access to their funds by Monday morning, the FDIC said. Depositors with funds exceeding insurance caps will get receivership certificates for their uninsured balances.

Something like around 5% of their deposit accounts were under the $250k FDIC insurance amount.  Bunch of people getting IOUs today.

Over 80% of venture-backed startups bank with SVB, and the vast majority have millions with them.  This is potentially devastating.  Tens of thousands of tech workers might not get paid on the 15th.

The ramifications of this are far-reaching.

All the VCs running on SVB bent Powell right over a barrel and said "Get the gimp"

It's his interest rate hikes that fucked over SVB and the tech sector... but it's largely Biden's fault for flushing the market with $$$

You might want to ask AC about all this great reset talk. He’s up on all that conspiracy stuff.

Countries are setup as corps.  What happened when they fail?

Who assumes the debt.

The great reset.

Never, ever take a liberal's advice on investing.... :lol:

Yet another of CNBC host Jim Cramer’s hot stock market takes just fell harder than President Joe Biden stumbling up the steps of Air Force One.

Cramer listed his top ten biggest stock “winners of 2023” during the Feb. 8 edition of CNBC’s Mad Money. In the ninth spot for Cramer was Silicon Valley Bank’s parent company, SVB Financial Group. Cramer characterized the institution as a “merchant bank with a deposit base that Wall Street has mistakenly been concerned about.” In Cramer’s ludicrous view, the stock was a good buy because “being a banker to these immense pools of capital has always been a very good business.” He bizarrely called the stock “cheap,” despite it trading at around $320 a share at the time. Cramer said he thought the “fears were not justified. It’s a very compelling situation.” It wouldn’t take but a month for his take to implode. A March 10 CNBC story headline read: “Silicon Valley Bank is shut down by regulators in biggest bank failure since global financial crisis.” The SVB collapse, per CNBC, “a key player in the tech and venture capital community, leaves companies and wealthy individuals largely unsure of what will happen to their money.” Oops.

I can tell you this eatsy deposits there vendors/sellers money on Fridays. 

They sent out a memo this am that no payments will be made till further notice . 

This is a day after eatsy was downgraded .

How many small marketplace type shops are in this same boat with SVB sticking it to them

You fuckers support rolling back regulation - now own it!

 

Exactly what scrutiny did they drop?  If the measures passed with bipartisan support, tell us again why this was on Trump, and not on the regulators, or the bank management themselves, you dishonest hack?

Your boy signed it.  Looks like the 30+ Democratic Senators who opposed it got it exactly right:

The senator said her colleagues who opposed it did so not because of community banking policies but because of the restrictions lifted on mid-sized and regional institutions.
