What in the ?!?!?! happened with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB)?

Silicon Valley Bank has been in the news due to its recent collapse, and there's a lot of information flying around about what happened.
In this simple explainer video, created by a former Hedge Fund Analyst, you'll see what led to the growth...and ultimately the demise of this once-renowned bank.
In this video we cover:
-The Recent Growth of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB)
-How SVB was impacted by the tech downturn....and rising interest rates (which impaired their Available-for-Sale and Held-To-Maturity security portfolios).
-The interconnection of SVB with Silicon Valley, Silicon Alley, etc as well as the significant amount of uninsured deposits
-The ultimate demise of SVB due to its attempted security sale
Special shout-out to Marc Rubinstein for the best article I've seen on this topic: www.netinteres...

Thanks Mike! So when can we expect the banks to be required to clean up their held to maturity accounts?

When human nature changes….I’m not holding my breath 🤬🤬

…in all Seriousness…if they have sufficient reserves…the HTM securities shouldn’t be a problem if they didn’t invest in super low yielding securities like SVB did here.
