  1. SVB had most of its loans in the tech sector and most of its investments in long-term bonds. BOTH of these are vulnerable to interest rate increases, which the bank failed to hedge against. This was allowed and unreported because Trump deregulated banking. He reduced the capitol requirements and eliminated stress tests for midsize banks, which could've kept this bank from failing.

  2. Stop peddling lies. Trump deregulated, which reduced the capitol requirements for banks like SVB. He also eliminated the stress tests that could've revealed the bank's risky behavior and keep it from failing.

  3.  @teddycheong  we're talking about BANKING LAWS that can only be changed by CONGRESS. Maybe you should watch Schoolhouse Rock to learn how laws get pased. Dumbass.

  4. Don't ask----it's just like CRT, Republicans hate both of them but they can't even define what they mean.

  5. Only CONGRESS can change banking laws.

  6. Both the bank's loans (tech sector) and investments (long-term bonds) were overstretched and vulnerable to interest rate hikes, which the bank failed to hedge against. This was allowed because Trump deregulated banks. THAT is why SVB failed.

  7.  @teddycheong  The Dodd-Frank Act is a LAW, passed by Congress, that REGULATED banks. Ask your mom to explain this to you, next time she comes down to the basement.
