The Dangers of Being 'All Hat, No Cattle": The Silicon Valley Bank Collapse

What happened with the Silicon Valley Bank collapse? Ken's analysis of the Silicon Valley Bank collapse uncovers a worrying trend in banking: too much reliance on long-term bonds instead of short-term operating cash. His rundown of the events demonstrates how this cash flow versus capital gains mentality can quickly lead to disaster. As he accurately puts it, the bank had "all hat, no cattle", so to speak. This video provides an explanation for anyone wanting to learn more about this situation.

One of your best videos. This is where you are a powerhouse. I got caught in the 2007 crash with a capital gains play of 150 condo units. Painful Lesson is an understatement. I was licking my wounds up until about 2016. Your lesson here can't be emphasized enough.

David green and Graham Stephan explain this a little better. Your example would need to add that some of your bank's decided to call your loans. That is what happened to SVB. There was no way they could account for that regular income. An investor would need to refinance

I thought it was “tall hat, no cattle “ 😅

Hey Ken, would love for you to speak on various new types of e-currencies such as debit/credit general ledger blockchain for example. When the dollar ponzi scheme collapses they're going to move us to their new fiat Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). It will be a good opportunity to take back control by shunning their currency and creating our own monetary system.
