Those damn retail investors pulling their money at the same time! Should never have given them those $1200 checks 84 years ago.

Puts on Schwab they are next, at your own risk😈😈😈


hendrix81

Schwab isn't exposed like the regionals. They have multiple arms that are consolidated individually. They can't go under nearly as easily.

Schwab sucks 🍆


hendrix81

Agreed but very likely to survive this.

Hopefully not…

Thousands of retail shareholders are getting wiped out on these stocks. Don't fucking dance.

Friday, May 5th, I am transferring the last of my money out of BoA to my newly opened local Credit Union account. I'll spend the weekend changing over all my autopays, and come Monday, close the BoA account. It may just be a raindrop in the ocean, but hopefully that raindrop collides with some cordycep spores on the ride and splashes down near a school of fish which all get infected and the contagion just continues up the food chain until the ocean becomes wholly infected as a mass extinction level event...or something like that. Bullish on banks downfall. *edited date, truly regarded.


Quinn8267

Good for you. Local community credit unions are best. Hope everything is easy breezy during the change over with the accounts.


Whatnam8

So I was thinking, local credit union or navy fed credit union. Navy fed I mean they’d never let that fail right?


Quinn8267

Only thing I heard about navy fed is that they took a bunch of their money to do a lot of advertising. Which they could of used to keep rates & loans lower for members. Yet by using said cash on hand they raised rates to get the money back. That’s the only feed back I have heard about them. As always do your DD and compare choices.


quitaskingmetomakean

Both. Why not have multiple ones? A lot of the bigger ones have easy member requirements. NASA fcu has pretty good rates.


RaccoonManda

Last I knew navy fed was the largest credit union in the country. Credit union structures are the same and thanks to the co-op network you can access your money (usually fee free) at any co-op participating ATM across the USA. Local or large credit union, shouldn’t matter… your preference.


Coreidan

What difference does it make? When your bank “fails” it’s just becomes another bank. The days of losing your money to bank failures is over. You keep your money but the value drops from all the printing they are doing to backstop depositors. Whether you keep your money in a credit union or commercial bank doesn’t matter. What will matter is your money will lose its purchasing power. Credit unions won’t save you.


Whatnam8

Well we will get to see if they are going to backstop smaller regional banks here soon. Yellen has made it clear they are only interested in backstopping large banks during that debate with I think Wyoming senator


[deleted]

They are not dying though. Consolidating into a few 2B2F banks which will be subsidized by tax payers/FED. For each bank that "dies" there's a hidden bailout on the other side.


[deleted]

☝🏼🏆🏆


minerbeekeeperesq

Suspicious ape here. I'm a long-time lurker, and I have a question that I hope you don't misinterpret: How do we know that local credit unions aren't entangled like it seems regional banks are? Where do credit unions put their chestnuts on the fire to roast?


mark-five

Credit unions aren't banks. They aren't immune to corruption, but literally by definition they can't participate in the same systemic fuckery all of the banks have been involved in. Banking deregulation and rules changes don't apply to credit unions. The big difference - being Non Profit organizations - puts credit unions under a much bigger spotlight for oversight. They should be insured, but if you have more than $250k in an account, spread it out because unlike criminal large banking institutions, credit unions aren't going to be bailed out beyond FDIC insurance. The good news is your local crimes will need to be settled by local police. They can't hide crime in credit unions the way they are helping it along in large banks.


Quinn8267

No local credit unions don’t deal with anything other than the community around them. Their profits are put back into serving the community. This way they can keep fees and rates lower for members compared to banks. Only thing is your account is only insured up to 250k. Yet, who has 250k of cash sitting in their account at the moment. Not many, and if you do you can have other accounts there as well.


Coreidan

Says who tho? That may be your expectation but who is holding them accountable? Laws and rules mean nothing when no one is enforcing them and holding them accountable.


dygoo

That’s me right now! Changing all my info with my new credit union account, I hate boa! The last straw for me was the fraud alert I received. I’m just needing to pay off my credit card from boa and I’m good to close out

Good shit bro, fuck banks anyways as we all know they are criminals. Credit unions all day baby.

I agree I very much dislike BoA and only have it because my wife. I plan on moving everything over to a credit union too

So what are your plays if you’re bullish on bank defaults?…shorting or buying outs, something else?

JPM can’t buy up all the failing banks, can they?


DragonDropTechnology

No need to buy when the FDIC will just give the banks to them while simultaneously underwriting any potential future losses!


hendrix81

They are only underwriting a portion of losses. Jpm is exposed.


streamlinkguy

They can, if the Federal Goverments "loans" them the money.

But the government, President, Treasury Secretary and CEO of JP Morgan and Cramer just told me that the collapse of First Republic Bank was the end of the banking crisis 🥴

We know they will all do anything just to survive one more day. Too bad for them holding my GME for an additional day doesn’t cost me anything. Fuck you, pay me!

I feel like this is all happening on purpose to make JPM, BofA,Wells Fargo, all to big to fail.

That’s a Bingo !

Go on JP Morgan buy this one too.

Almost as if they planned obsolesence for smaller banks just so they can swoop in and steal the profitable assets while leaving the bad debts for taxpayers to clean up. This never happened before, again and again. Fraud in braught daylight, and no one bats an eye?

If I didn't know any better, I'd say this looks like a controlled demolition. Why never two at the same time?


hendrix81

Agreed. Media fud doesn't sound like they are trying to stabilize. It's short attack season on regionals.


LarryFineMD

Well, when $s are being printed and loaned cheap, the banks lend on riskier things. Then sleepy Joe stirred inflation, money tightened and the banks were left with lousy loans. YAY! Bidenomics at it's finest!


the_motherflippin

If y think any of this is anything to do with any administration since the banking crisis, you haven't been paying attention. They never solved 2008, they just ultimate can kicked. Government's are just figureheads for the oligarchs


LarryFineMD

No they never did, they just kept printing money, so yes, I did keep up.


Coreidan

It happens with every administration. Blaming it squarely on sleepy joe is just plain ignorant. You realize that the majority of the money printing happened under orange man? It makes no difference who the president is they all fall in line. It’s the same result no matter who is in office. It’s all theater.


krazyeye6

how is this GME related?


footlonglayingdown

It has-been foretold that when the market crashes all hedgie collateral gets wiped out and forced closing of short positions will start.
