I thought that while you and @zerohedge are onto something, I didn't think it is this bad.
The bank's losses were 7 TIMES WORSE than what "analysts" expected: Half a billion dollars expected to losing billions. This explains the $6 billion loan by the Fed.
For those who didn't folllow, @zerohedge reported a few weeks ago that the Fed lent the Swiss Central Bank $6 billion; the largest one time loan ever to them.
Today we learn #CreditSuisse had a $4 billion loss last quarter.
It appears that a major investment bank in Europe needed a multi-billion dollar bailout in recent weeks (funded by the Fed) and not only is it not a "Lehman Moment." It's no moment at all.
Nobody knows. Nobody cares.
That, my friend, is the beauty of having a Dem in the WH.

Once again this genius bought and sold media narratives just as he did against Kavanaugh and also regarding the #BidenRaidOnTrump: After advocating for COVID-19 vaccination for over a year, Ben Shapiro says he was deceived: "We were lied to by everyone." theblaze.com/news/after-adv…
Time and again, Shapiro admits being taken on a ride by media but he then gets sucked into the next hoax when it matters until he wakes up a year or two too late.
What measures is he implementing not to be clowned again?
His fans are welcome to reply.
Probably by 2024-2025 he will walk back some of that too. He was a sucker for collusion for a long while too.
Thread: I live in #NY17. I have worked on winning and losing campaigns here and elsewhere that have a large number of voters who are Orthodox Jewish.
FIRST: POTUS Biden called the Grand Rabbis of Kaser, New Square asking for support for @spmaloney. Dunno yet about @KathyHochul.
2/ I don't do political campaigns in recent years due to my work with OJPAC. But from what I follow up close, @lawler4ny won his seat in the NY Assembly in 2020 by a margin of a few thousand votes in an election year where 18,000 voters who are Orthodox Jewish turnout countywide.
3/ The 18,000-strong vote in 2020 in #NY17 was almost exclusively for Trump and this includes 3K or so votes in New Square and 3,500 or so in Kaser (and their affiliated members in surrounding areas).
Now that the seat is a toss up, a move by leadership in either place is key!
The narrative in August that the GOP should not talk about the raid based on the premise that it's bad on Trump rather than on the raiders, was an insane level of gaslighting. Like... Why would the victim of a political persecution be on the defensive? Made no sense.
Less than half of registered voters approved of the #BidenRaidOnTrump in a poll taken days after the raid when the propaganda about the raid was at its strongest and scariest, and look at the GOP numbers. And with Trump there is always the factor that people hide their stance.
People popping off at the tail end of a 7 week effort to ascertain the integrity of elections, does not mean that those who opined about the elections and wanted to use legal tools for it are at fault for the end or else Obama/other Dems are at fault for BLM-related riots.
Useless and/or complicit @jeffsessions, @RodRosenstein, @MattWhitaker46 and Bill Barr did little-to-nothing about this brazen, blatant, politically-motivated abuse of power. Astounding that this didn't lead to dozens of raids and prosecutions.
These goons door busted him in the early morning and handcuffed him in front of his kids. Meanwhile, dozens of arson/vandalism incidents against pregnancy centers didn't get such prosecutions.
“Put simply, violence is never the answer,” said the Special Agent in Charge who sent two dozen armed agents to door busts the home in the early morning and arrest the father in front of a horrified family of many young kids. These chickens have no guts to take down criminals.
