| 1639328265986015232 | @M_C_Klein I can’t square Powells solemn affirmations that there must be pain to end inflation (when discussing unemployment) with their furious effort to prevent pain in the banks and taking on their depreciated assets. | 5 |
| 1638551351369289728 | @M_C_Klein @IrvingSwisher This sounds insane when I write it down, but if the Fed is making a decision based on “secret knowledge” they should explicitly say “we’re making this decision based on secret knowledge”, the ambiguity is bad | 3 |

| 1639974016839557120 | @M_C_Klein @StevenKelly49 I wouldn't say red herring and I don't think Steven is saying that either. The big problem was a run-prone liability structure but it's possible to manage that if you keep the asset side liquid and don't run too much interest rate risk. There was synergy between the two mistakes | 33 |
| 1641497797378691072 | @M_C_Klein @jeuasommenulle That's my impression as well | 31 |
| 1638620514577948678 | @M_C_Klein It seems to violate the laws of economics that if you're an uninsured depositor at a bank, there is an option available to you that pays you more and also is safer. Seems like a free l unch. | 21 |

| 1641508575666225153 | @TheStalwart @M_C_Klein @jeuasommenulle It was important to them for it to be a story about general banking sector disaster induced by the Fed and not an idiosyncratic startup sector disaster induced by skittish VC herd behavior | 18 |
