largest bank failure since 2008 [Insider Fortunes Summit] March 15, 2023 [UNSUBSCRIBE]( SVB Collapse Rattles Markets: Protect Your Assets With Gold Before The Contagion Spreads Dear Reader, The adage the Fed tightens until something breaks, appears to be coming true… The Fed just broke Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), causing the second largest bank failure in U.S. history. SVB embodied the “free money” low interest era. It was the unicorn-maker… the top financier of the innovative U.S. tech sector, home to stunningly high valuations and soaring IPOs. Nearly half of all VC-backed companies – household names including Roku, Pinterest, and ZipRecruiter – were among its clients. And… in less than 48 hours SVB was gone. Its demise is a direct result of the Fed’s aggressive rate hiking… The massive bank was particularly at risk to rate increases because it held an abnormally large share of customer deposits in long duration bonds which have been dropping in value as of late. When clients began withdrawing funds, in a devastating bank run reminiscent of the 2008 financial crisis, SVB got crunched and quickly shuttered. This begs the question, is the SVB implosion an isolated incident? Or this decade’s “Lehman moment”… the start of something bigger that could infect the entire banking system? Watching a major financial institution go up in smoke is both highly concerning and a good reminder of why we believe in owning gold. Unlike a bank, gold isn't held on deposit. Gold is never lent out or anyone else’s liability. It's owned solely by you, for when you need it. Gold is the ultimate safety net. It can’t be erased, hacked, digitized, synthesized in a lab, or made in a factory. Once you own gold, you own it. It can’t go out of business. It’s not backed by a government like bonds. And it has no counterparty risk. In short, gold is money all on its own. Those who take the long view understand that there are always risks present in our financial system, but what is so troubling in light of recent events is the velocity. SVB imploded in a matter of hours. We may not have time to react when the next crisis hits. It could be all over as fast as it began. What more do you need to see before you fortify your portfolio?
