One was these long dated bonds having unrealized losses, which is causing problems in regional community banks. The second piece of it is the commercial real estate crisis, which I think is metastasizing right now, which is also going to be a banking crisis once all those unrealized losses come due.

If you look at how well run Citi, B of A, Wells and JPMR relative and contrast them to the sub GSIBs, it's like night and day.

The banks are saying we don't have enough liquidity right now to cover our needs, which are highly volatile right now because basically depositors are moving out of community and regional and small banks into the big four so-called systemically important or CIP banks.

Because if it's two trillion for everybody else but the top four, what's the gap for the top four? That looks like it's somewhere between a trillion and two trillion.

However, it has also now, I think, created a situation where people are less confident about them. And so the money flows are going from the regional banks to the systemically important banks, the SIBs.

Folks, when you look at the equity tier of these regional banks, people are liquidating the equity tier because they know that that is the first domino to fall if banks go into receivership. Please act accordingly. You can see it in the ETFs. You can see it in the trade flows. This is not a Silicon Valley problem anymore.
