It’s a funny meme I guess but I don’t think his question had anything to do with the market drop. He asked his question about 15 minutes prior to the drop… which coincided with Yellen’s comments.

I like how a reporter who doesn't understand how macro economy works asked a clarifying question that results in market correction of 3.3M times his annual salary in 1 hour. img

Well for one thinking they are in any sort of trouble.$16 billion in profit for 2022 indicates that whatever ape nonsense this Twitter page is spewing, is pretty insignificant.

The sequoia “bailout” is anything but. It’s just an outside investment. Money makes money and these guys know this very well.

He's well aware of what he was asking. He's from Bloomberg and writes economics articles on the same team as Matt Levine and many other econ-nerds. Some samples from his Twitter this week:

> For all the fears generated by massive Twitter misunderstanding of the central bank swap lines announcement yesterday... Today @ecb had one bid for $5 million; @bankofengland , BOJ , @SNB_BNS had zero. No funding stress at the moment.

> Why new @federalreserve lending isn't QE or the end of QT: The Bank Term Lending Program accepts Treasuries and MBS for one year from #banks looking to shore up their balance sheets. That money is not going to be used by those banks for investments or loans. 1/2

> And they're not going to buy Treasuries or MBS with it. It's not going into the economy. And it has to be paid back, with (admittedly nominal) interest. Loans to @FDICgov receiver banks also have to be paid back and aren't going into the economy. 2/2

Dude is 100% cutting to the heart of the matter and doesn't care about whatever retail / cryptoscam narratives are being pumped on Youtube and Fintwit.

Except that's not what Powell said. Powell is leaving open the door to the possibility that further chaos may impede their ability to raise the long term rate, forcing them to delay but not pause raising rates while they resolve the next crisis. He's essentially telegraphing a subject they just finished discussing in FOMC.

If the FOMC were still focused on figuring out the scale of the damage from additional, post-SVB/Signature bank failures (i.e. if FRC or others had fallen), they might not have worried about a rate hike at this moment. As Powell said, additional bank failures in the short term were taking more money out than their interest rate hike could do. That's why they didn't do 50bps in this meeting.

This reporter probably has a better understanding of the economics involved than you and the entire generation of people who were stupid enough to support your dumb existence long enough so that you can write your moronic comment. Dude sits on the economic bench for Bloomberg, and is their chosen guy to go sit at a FOMC presser. His inert Press credential to get in there has more economic awareness than your entire brain. Read his Twitter you poor, deluded, dumb piece of shit: https://twitter.com/mckonomy

You probably forget most of the people in here are trading in broker accounts with "betting pools" so low they can't even qualify for real time quotes. They're probably watching a 15 minute candle update on Yahoo Finance, thinking the entire movement happened all at once. These are the same people talking about gap downs/ups like the Asian and European markets don't exist.

I was waiting for someone to finally say this. If anything, he was laughing at the absurdity of it all. I'm alarmed to conclude that this website is full of children now, and has been diluted to the point where very little can be extracted amidst the noise.

Anyone paying attention to recent Fed speak, which I’m sure includes this guy, knew what the answer would be.

The Fed has every reason to sow doubt on the timing of rate decreases and keep markets subdued. What was he going to say? “Yes, we’ve peaked so let’s price everything like risk free returns are about plummet”.

When it was below 100k the subreddit theme added a digit to subscriber count. I joined when there were 13k or so degenerate gamblers. I miss the good old days of penny stocks and fscomeau or however his username is spelt. He was a paper trading fraud but still. Good times.

No, the surprise in what jpow said was that the feds model💃💃 suggests no more rate increases(assuming all stays the same) but the market has a .25 increase priced in for may. So the market had to adjust for no more rate hikes instead of +.25.

The big fish were just shuffling money around, its good-ish news so only up from here. We'll beat february's highs shortly. img

Do you want to be the 67 year old wearing diapers at the slots wagering on 1:billion odds, or do you want to wager on single shoe blackjack with a counting system and an understanding of basic odds?

Just because it is a casino doesn't mean you need to get fucked with that loser attitude of yours.

No no, I agree completely with your statement and the one previously too. I was just doing the "sir this is a Wendy's" joke because so many people on this sub are superbly undereducated with a gambler's mindset.

I don't do options or anything like that, I mostly buy physical silver lately.

They're moving it from one bank to another in most cases. In the cases where its being spent down (i.e. a lot of the startups that are burning VC cash on payroll, OPEX/CAPEX, etc.) that money was going into the economy either way, regardless of which bank it sat at.

What is happening though is a bunch of banks are getting defacto taxed to cover SVB and Signature's shortfalls on asset sales just to make sure those depositors can move banks, and that money that gets taxed will be replenishing the empty FDIC piggy bank for insurance. For the banks not affected by SVB, they're recapitalized with the funds they've borrowed, and then pay it back with minor interest to Treasury which gets to use it against the US budget anyways.

This is more, "I asked a rhetorical question with all the smugness but got burned by the response".

Kinda like when those people from a US morning show asked a fashion designer about what she knew about political topics, and she said, "It's because I read the books and did my due diligence on that topoc". The "gotcha" question got them instead of her.

It's a thing of beauty.
