The Banking Hell is Worsening | Deutsche Bank Crash & Severe Recession.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
all of a sudden that funding kind of
evaporates and then the cost of capital
for banks to fund themselves changes
dramatically and alters and then all the
eyeballs come on okay who's the next
victim you know who's the who's the next
leading to have to bear and the serpent
in the market the serpents at least in
the market wants to find that next
fixture well folks just as we thought
the banking crisis might be over the
banking crisis is continuing to evolve
take a look at this screenshot of the
pricing of credit default swaps of four
Deutsche Bank on the right side you
could see these skyrocketing of credit
default swaps now we have been at this
level before in September and October
but why are we potentially revisiting
those levels again well it's potentially
because the banking crisis is actually
just getting started is it possible that
silvergates and Silicon Valley Bank as
well as signature and those bank
failures could all just be the tip of
the iceberg and the answer to that is
absolutely and unfortunately yeah yes
now don't worry says Jerome Powell
Jerome Powell tells us our banking
system is sound and we have nothing to
worry about and Janet Yellen says mostly
the same although stopping short of
suggesting that will fully guarantee
deposits in fact Janet Yellen
flip-flopped on Wednesday on Wednesday
Jerome Powell suggested don't worry all
deposits in the banking system are safe
and when he was challenged on that
suggesting hey wait a minute are you now
saying that FDIC insurance is extended
past 250k because you know that'd be
good that'd be a way for you to prevent
the banking crisis and the banking runs
for continuing right and he said don't
worry deposit outflows have stabilized
and we have our tools but that's all
we're willing to say that same day Janet
Yellen said this year as I said last
week the U.S banking system is sound
Federal government's recent actions have
demonstrated our Resolute commitment to
take the necessary steps to ensure that
deposit or savings remain safe that was
different from what Jerome Powell said
that led to a lot of nervousness like
hey wait a minute trumpal just said
everyone's safe you're saying you're
taking steps to make sure everyone is
safe that led to nervousness so the very
next day when she then testified before
the other chamber of Congress she
revised what she said she said following
as I have said we have used important
tools to act quickly to prevent
contagion and they are tools we could
use again the strong actions we have
taken to ensure Americans deposits are
safe certainly we would be prepared to
take such actions again if warranted in
other words hey um we just want to align
with what Jerome Powell said yes yes we
still have tools on the tool belt to
protect the banking system don't worry
no we're not guaranteeing everything but
trust us everything is fine well why
then Are banks like JP Morgan down 10 in
just the last two weeks why then our
credit default swaps which are like an
insurance premium to protect an investor
against laws at a bank skyrocketing and
why all of a sudden are we seeing this
fear arising even amongst companies like
UBS again that uh oh we might actually
have more pain coming than we expect
well it's probably because of the a1t
Wipeout over at Credit Suisse that a1t
Wipeout was actually a really big deal
and it started to lead to margin calls
around the world and a lot of panic that
wait a minute nobody really knows the
scope of what's going on and that is
creating nervousness take a look at this
article here here's an article from the
financial times talking about how the
a1t bonds were wiped out now what's
really important to know before you go
into this is that bonds and then and
somebody holds a bond is really just
somebody who holds an IOU right if you
lent me a thousand dollars and I gave
you a piece of paperback that said I owe
you a thousand dollars back it's just
like you're holding a bond now let's
assume you're holding that Bond and
you're like okay well if Kevin defaults
I get access to all his stock Holdings
first and that's generally what a bond
is known as but now you have swiss
Regulators who came in and said you know
what
we want somebody to buy this bank and we
want somebody to get those assets that
Kevin has maybe for pennies on the
dollar but we want somebody to buy those
assets let's just screw the bond holders
holding that note and wipe them out
before we wipe out the shareholders now
that is really weird because yes those
bondholders can get wiped out with a1ts
but not usually before the equity
holders but that was the most convenient
way to facilitate a deal
at Swiss banks and so that's exactly
what happened
the a1t bondholders got completely wiped
out written down to zero while
shareholders received 3.25 billion
dollars so in other words 17 billion
dollars of Bonds were wiped out while
shareholders actually received 3.25
billion dollars which is at least
something on the value of the company
now that has led to this fear of others
starting to sell these bonds look at
this quick note you can now use buy now
pay later to check out on the programs
of building your wealth link down below
we extended the coupon code just for
today whether you pay normally or with
buy now pay later just to give the folks
who've been asking an opportunity to get
that last coupon code and use buy now
pay later check it out link down below
affirm after pay klarna it's awesome
check it out you're going to meet
kevin.com or click the link down below
remember you get a price guarantee so
you get the best price guaranteed going
forward so as the price goes up in time
your course becomes more valuable
especially as we add even more value and
content to the courses just this morning
for example we looked at a couple
companies that gave us some sweet heads
up in what's actually going on with
inflation check it out link down below
look at this selling pressures amongst
a1t clients especially wealthy clients
are starting to receive margin calls why
would they receive margin calls because
these were deemed to be super safe and
they had almost a 10 coupon think about
this a 10 coupon is like saying hey I
lent you a thousand bucks will you pay
me nearly 10 interest sure and don't
worry you're safe before the
shareholders and then what happens you
get rug pulled you get wiped out before
the shareholders get wiped out but you
were expecting to get 10 interest and
what's happening now you're kidding
absolutely nothing and so these wealthy
family offices throughout the world
whether they're in China uh in different
parts of Asia or in Europe who invested
in these a1t bonds thinking they were
safe
are actually getting wiped out and now
they're getting margin called and now
they're panicking thinking oh my god
well if this could happen at Credit
Suisse then maybe this could happen in
other Banks as well and maybe we should
sell out of this and this is much
riskier debt than we thought in fact the
financial times is quoting people saying
the following we haven't slept since
Sunday said one singapore-based private
Banker people are completely gobsmacked
now what is a private Banker well
private Banker is a banker that helps
work with people who have generally more
wealth than normal people who bank at
the bank and you do usually have three
levels you have uh for example if you go
to chase you have anybody who walks into
Chase who can open a bank account then
you have the private bank which is
usually where you have more than 250 000
in assets or you have the JPMorgan
wealth bank which is when you have more
than 10 million dollars in assets
these private Bankers are the people
usually representing people with a lot
of wealth and they are seeing their
clients freaking out over these bonds
getting wiped out and it's leading to
fears that the same kind of stress can
happen at other Banks and that is why we
are now seeing credit default swaps at
Deutsche Bank Skyrocket and what is that
leading to it's leading to their stocks
plummeting in fact in pre-market trading
Deutsche Bank stock is down as much as
13 and you're starting to see the same
kind of pain in American markets down 13
in in European markets right now on the
uh the NASDAQ or sorry the New York
Stock Exchange we're down 9.53 on
Deutsche Bank uh in pre-market you've
got a more limited response to U.S banks
but they're down JP Morgan for example
is down 2.24 so you're starting to see
fear that
Janet Yellen and uh Federal Reserve
chairperson Jerome Powell might not be
capable of handling this contagion
because all of a sudden if Deutsche Bank
starts having problems you're going to
have a whole lot more problems why well
because Deutsche Bank employs 82 500
people across the world on top of that
it has 1.5 trillion dollars in assets
think about that for a moment Silicon
Valley Bank had 211 billion dollars in
assets 1.5 trillion is a multiple of
seven that is you're now starting to see
stress at a bank that is seven times the
size of Silicon Valley Bank it is three
times the size of Credit Suisse and
Banks across the world are now suffering
France's Society generally is down seven
percent this morning Deutsche Bank is
obviously a German Bank in case that
wasn't clear UBS is also down as the
justice department is now probing UBS
Silicon Valley Bank is supposed to be
sold this weekend with bids due tonight
yes bids are due tonight for a Silicon
Valley Bank gosh bids being due tonight
kind of remind me of something so
yesterday as a tangent here uh this
amazing person who works for me Justin
uh just sent me a message that we have
now introduced take a look at this a new
feature for the courses on building your
wealth that let you now buy now pay
later with either a firm or karna or any
of the other buy now pay later Services
kind of cool I didn't know we could
integrate that we now have that a lot of
people have been requesting a buy now
pay later option uh and while I'm not
the biggest fan of buy now pay later we
now have that as an option for the
courses on building your wealth link
down below so in honor of that we have
extended the coupon code just today just
today uh so that way you could use that
coupon uh that was supposed to expire
Wednesday along with buy now pay later
so congratulations if you're interested
in using that but anyway going back to
Silicon Valley Bank Silicon Valley Bank
bids are due tonight uh bids will be
open until this evening and the bank is
expected to be sold over the weekend now
what's fascinating about that is they
want this bank to be sold before the
Market opens on Monday to prevent Panic
of a disorderly sale keep in mind the
kind of recession that we could be
walking into could be a balance sheet
recession which is exactly what you're
seeing happening at these banks these
banks are seeing their balance sheets
deteriorate at the same time as Bank
runs and fears are being caused at
specific Banks leading to a
consolidation of assets at larger Banks
but not just at Banks people are also
fleeing Banks and the reason people are
fleeing Banks is because you can
essentially get a yield at non-banks
well and money market funds why bother
getting a yield of bank if you can get
yield at money market funds look at this
folks Brett Whitton fantastic guy
brilliant mind over at ARC invest I'll
tell you Kathy would like or not she
employs some fantastic researchers look
at this chart right here money market
funds seeing a skyrocketing Google
search a result a sort of an explosion
of Google search results over here why
are you seeing this explosion of Google
search results where you're seeing it
because people are looking for a safer
place to put their money and why are
people doing that because why put your
money in the banks if you could just put
your money in treasuries or money market
funds and basically get a yield that you
couldn't otherwise be getting it's
fantastic so searches are skyrocketing
what is that doing it's leading to more
of a run on a Banks that's incredible
but it's also not good for the banks so
what's next well Silicon Valley Bank is
expected to be sold this weekend listen
to what happened at Silicon Valley Bank
and it shows you dare I say the near
corruption that happens at these Banks
you know how Joe Biden came out and said
hey uh don't worry even though we bailed
out depositors we punished the
executives because they got fired really
the executives got punished well guess
what Silicon Valley Bank just told us
about Executives getting punished do you
want to hear it here it is executive
paying at Silicon Valley Bank soared
after the bank embarked on a strategy to
boost profitability by buying riskier
assets exposed to Rising interest rates
according to the financial times
analysis of security filings and people
familiar with the matter the jump and
pay for CEO Greg Becker and CFO Daniel
back was the result of large multi-year
bonus Awards pegged to the bank's return
on Equity measure of profitability that
Rose sharply between the risky Landing
period of 2017 and 2021 filing show well
isn't that a little bit of a surprise no
it's not a surprise at all why is it not
a surprise at all it's not a surprise at
all because obviously when banks are
encouraged to be riskier what happens
they make more profit in the short term
so the executives get paid more money uh
that is not good because it encourages
more risky debt that is not fantastic
uh so what do you have well you have Joe
Biden telling you don't worry
everything's fine the banks are going to
be safe because they're going to have
good risk mitigation because otherwise
they'll get fired really
the CFO was also the guy who worked at
Lehman Brothers in 2008 and then moved
on to earn a 1.4 million dollar bonus in
2021 alone making 3.8 million dollars a
year
at Silicon Valley Bank Becker the CEO
made 10 million dollars in 2021.
oops
it's ridiculous we are also seeing bids
for credit or uh Silicon Valley Bank
from companies like the bank of London
that is not to be confused with the bank
of England which is the central bank it
is to be uh considered the bank of Hope
London which is a bank that's only
existed for two to three years like who
wants these toxic assets nobody in the
meantime we're seeing margin calls in
the a1ts market we're seeing bonuses
getting Frozen by the Swiss government
we're seeing Jenny Dylan and Jerome
Powell freaking out and they can't even
align with their own discussions and the
way they're trying to assure American
depositors and at the same time that's
happening what's lining up the next bank
failure yes before I read you this one
you're going to want to get yourself
life insurance because well yes I have a
partnership and a sponsorship with life
insurance had it for a very long time
and it is fantastic you get life
insurance in as little as five minutes
while you want to make Kevin Arcon life
you get Apple pay or Android pay for it
in as little as five minutes you can get
screened everything right through the
app took me five minutes it took Lauren
who's got asthma like seven minutes it
was great
take a look by go to my camera.com
the next bank failure is coming pack
West Bank Corp is apparently now moving
to shore itself up after customers
pulled 20 of their deposits since the
start of the Year
1.4 billion dollars of financing has
been established from Partners they have
abandoned a capital raise thanks to a
surge in customer withdrawals pacquest
has now borrowed 3.7 billion dollars
from the federal Home Loans Bank
and they borrow 10.5 billion dollars
from the discount window and they borrow
2.1 billion dollars from the btfp the
bank term funding program from the
Federal Reserve their emergency facility
and folks they have seen an outflow of
4.9 billion dollars just from Venture
capitalists that is out of the total of
6.8 billion dollars that have flown out
of pack West Bank Corps in just the last
couple of weeks here
now this comes at the same time as First
Republic received a 30 billion infusion
from 11 strong banks with JP Morgan
leading the effort but guess what it has
not really helped quell the pain at all
in fact if you look at first Republican
Bank stock it is down six percent
yesterday four percent in uh the last uh
uh or pre-market here in the last five
days it's down to 50.8 in last month
it's down 89 in the last six months it's
down 90 it is near record lows in
pre-market today that might break record
lows today it's pretty remarkable
this is not good not only is it not good
but the US government as much as they're
telling us they're willing to swoop in
to guarantee deposits because after all
Quote their intervention was necessary
to protect the broader U.S banking
system we cannot have a guarantee that
if you have deposits in excess of FDIC
insurance that you will actually be
protected so what should you do as
somebody who's just trying to get
through this crisis well my opinion the
best thing that you should do is make
sure that if you have money in excess of
250k you have it spread out over
different banks use the FDIC insurance
calculator to make sure you're spread
out appropriately especially if you
operate a business use multiple
different banks multiple different bank
accounts now even if you do not have
money in excess of 250 000 I think it is
worth having money and maybe two to
three different banks have your money
separated so that way if for some reason
your assets were temporarily caught up
in a you know a banking shutdown or
freeze for a few days even you'd still
have access to capital for a few days
it's not a bad idea to have multiple
different bank accounts so I'm a big fan
of that and I think you should consider
it as well so consider that these small
and medium Bank contagion fears are real
remember this
now it's also worth noting that there's
a lot of resistance to creating any kind
of universal guarantee on deposits I
think this is why Jerome Powell and
Janet Yellen have this inconsistent
messaging they don't want to send this
message that there is a universal
guarantee because as the house Freedom
caucus says quote any universal
guarantee on Bank deposits whether
implicit or explicit enshrines A
Dangerous precedent that simply
encourages future irresponsible Behavior
to be paid for by those not involved who
followed the rules this is true remember
folks people like to tell you that no
the bailout of Silicon Valley Bank was
by no means a taxpayer funded
well that's only a half truth while it
is true in spirit
taxpayers are backstopping that bailout
if there's any loss of money from that
Silicon Valley Bank fund you're either
going to pay for it through the
treasuries appropriated fund with the
treasury backstop fund that actually
backstops the btfp from the FED that is
the treasury back stops it who's funding
that program you the taxpayer but not
only that you might also see it in
higher fees that the other banks that
you bank at as the FDIC tries to recoup
some of their damage Peter Schiff
tweeted on Monday the U.S banking system
is currently insolvent thanks to the fed
and the FDIC thanks for much Sounder
under the gold standard and prior to the
FDIC today we have 18 trillion in
deposits quote unquote insured by 100
billion in treasuries the value of all
Bank deposits will soon be destroyed by
inflation says Peter Schiff and he's not
terribly wrong about a lack of actual
insurance it's worth noting that the
FDIC only has enough money to insure
insurer dollar for dollar about one
point 95 of all deposit Reserves
oopsie dupsies that's not great here we
all are all wondering about how stable
coins are backed one to one yet the FDIC
is backed just 1.95 cents to every
dollar you have deposited yeah we do
happen to have the FED with the money
printer which is nice and somewhat
useful but it's also
um you know slightly concerning
so worth keeping an eye on what's going
on in the banking in the banking system
because well ultimately it affects all
of us but not only does it affect us in
terms of our banking it also affects the
market the reason there's a reason the
market is rent today on these renewed
fears of Deutsche Bank sparking concerns
of potentially Global contagion at the
time of this recording most indices are
down half to one percent we're also
seeing actually a flight to safety of
bonds that is the 10-year treasury yield
is down nine basis points to 3.31 now
part of you might be thinking well this
is fantastic that means mortgage rates
are going to come down right
not so fast mortgage spreads have
widened so much that even though the
10-year treasury has fallen about 80
basis points mortgage rates are still
close to seven percent they're not
actually coming down because risk Premia
measured via spreads are actually Rising
oopsie dupsies now all of a sudden
you're not seeing mortgage rates come
down while people are fleeing to the
safety of bonds and bond yields are
coming down that's a bummer for Real
Estate but it's actually a good thing
for banks see as treasury yields come
down what happens the value of Bank Bond
portfolios actually goes up
that is actually a good thing because it
could potentially mitigate how much uh
of of these toxic assets banks have on
their balance sheets remember these
banking crises started just a few weeks
ago when the 10-year treasury yield ran
up to an almost all-time high during
this cycle the last few years cycle here
to about 4.1 percent we've dropped about
80 basis points 0.8 in just the last
week and a half here that is actually a
fantastic way of propping up the
valuation of the maturity or the health
maturity bonds and the available for
sale Securities that banks have on their
balance sheets
in English the more treasure yields fall
the more stable the banking system
ironically becomes however it's coming
at the same time as now we're worried
that Deutsche Bank could collapse a bank
that's seven times the size of Silicon
Valley Bank and three times the size of
Credit Suisse
however the more pain we see at Deutsche
Bank ironically the less pain the rest
of the banking system faces but is it
likely that we're going to continue to
see more bank failures in the near term
absolutely
