Banks haven’t needed this much cash infusion since the 2008 recession. On Oct 31, the Fed infused $51B of cash into one bank (they didn’t say which), and on Dec 28, they infused another $34B of cash into another bank (again they didn’t say which). This is after five years of zero such actions.<br/><br/>The article speculates that there is a short squeeze: banks have been shorting precious metals like silver and gold, but their prices have skyrocketed. They’re getting margin-called.<br/><br/>In any case, it seems that banks are suffering a liquidity crunch, to the tune of about $85B so far. Is this bad?

I can&#39;t keep track. I thought Meta was the one who announced a big layoff today. <br/><br/>And INDEED. Amazon seems like it won&#39;t be satisfied until their trucks get into numerous collisions per day.
