Do you understand the consequences of that? If that happens, dozens and perhaps eventually hundreds of regional banks will fail and many many more depositors will be out money.

Given how utterly terribly SIVB was run, I'm not exactly expecting a major issue come Monday. I'm looking at the books of like Ally Bank, and they're way better. https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000040729/f4eb406...

If there are other banks as poorly run as SIVB, they probably do deserve to collapse. But I also don't expect there to be many banks with that level of stupidity.
At Silicon Valley Bank, we're basically looking at a bank, whose Risks were completely slept on during the entire period of the fastest rising federal funds rate in the last half-century. (Or really, the position of Chief Risk Officer was vacant for this entire period). I assume the other banks had better risk management.
I don't expect a 25% decline across the industry however. The knock-on effects will be smaller. With a smaller "shockwave" of runs, combined with stronger bank fundamentals, I really don't think we're looking at a big domino-effect 2008-like collapse here.
