What's causing it all to go tits up this time?

[bots]

it's purely investor confidence. Credit Suisse have been dodgy af over the years, so when investors get jumpy they grab their cash

What about the two American banks though, seems like this thing could go very global fast

it's not really dissimilar to people stocking up on toilet roll. While logically, there really is no need to hoard them, once the public get an idea in their heads, all hell breaks loose, so yes, it could spread really quickly

CNN HD USA Feed Live on UK TV
11 banks have saved a Regional Bank

[A group of big USA banks has injected $30bn (£24.8bn)
into a smaller regional bank, First Republic,
which had been seen as at risk of failure.

The move came as authorities in the
US are trying to quell panic over the
health of the banking system, after a
series of bank collapses in the US.

Worries about the sector have spread globally,
raising fears of a crisis.
US regulators called the move "most welcome",
while the banks said their action
reflected their "confidence".
They said the banking system had plenty
of cash and made big profits.
"Recent events did nothing to change
this," they said. "The actions of America's
largest banks reflect their confidence
in the country's banking system."]

A Colleague at my work
sent me this:

[Who wouldn’t want to take it over
when the Swiss National bank have lent it over 50 billion!
UBS have got a bargain at taxpayers expense!]

i went for a job interview with UBS once and they told me i should expect to work an 18 hour day standard for no bump in pay. You can guess what my reaction was to that :laugh:
