I'm doing a Director's Exam on a nationally chartered bank next week. First day out I inspect and count the vaults. If they are out of money it will be quite an interesting engagement. View Quote |

OP, mind posting your credentials? Like what you do for a living, how long, designations?
That's a big claim you are making. |

They've all run out of money and apparently the collateral they were posting was not worthy so they have to inject themselves with free money from thin air to keep it going for a little longer courtesy of the FED. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Banks borrow from each other when they're running low on capital. Banks in the US also have pretty strict requirements for capital they keep on hand...Are you saying the banks aren't complying with these requirements? If one bank "runs out of money" it borrows more from another, sometimes at a higher interest rate depending on a number of factors. If all banks all across the world ran out of money that would indeed be a catastrophe...How exactly is that going to happen? Are we being told to buy gold during the commercial break? |

So you maybe got some proof of that or shall we just all panic and pop p-mags because some anonymous dude on the internet said to? I'm fine with the latter as I find running around in circles waving my arms and shouting that the sky is falling to be excellent cardio, but maybe just a shred of backup might help your story with less trusting types.

We're being setup. What's the play here ? Nobody knows. Maybe protect your assets to a store of value so you can convert that stored value into the new system post collapse. |

Fed Res has been creating billions.
We'll all be zimbabwe rich Deutsche Bank is a likely candidate to be having funding problems. Its attempt to merge with Commerzbank fell through in April. Its latest plan is to fire 18,000 workers and create a good bank/bad bank, isolating off unwanted assets that it plans to sell. Deutsche Bank has run through four different CEOs in the past four years and incurred losses in three of those years. Its share price has lost 90 percent of its value over the last dozen years and it is trading close to an historic low as of yesterday. On Monday it reported that its prime broker unit, that makes loans to hedge funds, was moving over to BNP Paribas along with its electronic trading operations.
Unfortunately for U.S. investors, Congress has taken no action to rein in the systemic risks on derivatives held by these behemoth global banks. Deutsche Bank is heavily interconnected via derivatives to U.S. banks including JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Bank of America. If it blows up, it has the potential to spread the kind of systemic contagion that Lehman Brothers spread in 2008 — seizing up lending between banks because no one knows who has exposure. Credit Suisse, another primary dealer, is also having difficulties with its share price losing 78 percent of its value since 2007. SocGen has also had a bad decade since the crash with its share price losing 66 percent of its value. View Quote Good old Deustche Bank again. If they go, everybody goes down with it. Back between 2004 and 2007, I considered putting my money in Swiss Francs. Then I learned about the problems of Credit Suisse and UBS AG and was glad I didn't. Besides, by 2010 FATCA kicked in and many foreign banks thought it was too much of a hassle to deal with American citizens. |

Did you really? My first school out of boot camp (USMC) was on Corry Station in Pensacola. This would be about September 1981. At the time, come payday, we were paid in cash. We always received at least one brand-new 2 dollar bill. I think it's a beautiful bill. I do wonder if I would still think so if it were commonly circulated.

Limited liquidity is not insolvency. We are been encouraging banks to not keep excess cash,and lend it out instead. They have responded accordingly, which has left the overnight market short on supply.
This is a sign that monitary policy needs adjustments, and not a sign of weakness on the part of banking. Banks are actually doing really really well right now. I work for one, we're having one of our best years ever and commercial loan losses / deliquencies are way down. |
