What about nationwide companies that call California home? How will they be affected? Hulu, Netflix?
They took or made a crap load of small business go bankrupt through Covid. Now when it's the bigger players turn they'll get bailed out.
I hear Oprah had a lot of money in that bank. 550-600 million. So if they don't get bailed out that'd be nice.

I heard that several big companies had cash in that bank, including Roku!
Californians were not the only ones who had money in that bank. I read an article this morning that talked about a Manhattan branch of the bank had to call the police because people had come in looking to get their money out of the bank.

I don’t see this one bank failure as a sign of an overall weakness in the banking industry. By and large, most of the banks in the country are solvent and doing well. What did this bank in was that the very industry they catered to (start-up tech companies and venture capitalists) knew they were about to default on a lot of their debt. So they pulled their deposits. Hence causing the run on the bank.
I am shocked that at this day in age, with all of the regulation in the banking industry, that the state of California basically allowed and encourage a federally insured bank to in essence operate as an equity partner in tech start-up companies. The riskiest loans a bank can make are to start-up companies. And that is all this bank did apparently. They deserve what is happening to them

I know little about banks. I just know LOTS of people were moving money out of banks because they were not paying enough interest (under 1%) and moving to places like brokerages paying 4.5+%
If people withdrawing money (that's their money) causes a bank to go bankrupt then there's a huge problem.
