SVB’s collapse could lead to a rebalancing of the @federalreserve’s monetary policy and ultimately trigger the dollar’s depreciation, which would act as a stimulus for poor countries, argues @FofackHippolyte. https://t.co/zgBYHsFyFb

We knew @Snowden was a despicable individual of v. low intellect.
He is body shaming the fellow ONLY because he has no argument. Transactions in crypto are limited to circular trading by cryptoheads (financial onanism) & unskilled money lauderers.

Dear @SBF_FTX. This is not a balance sheet. A balance sheet doesn't record "balances", it records assets on one side of the sheet and liabilities plus equity on the other. The "balance" is whether the totals on the two sides agree. #basicaccounting

The @federalreserve 2% inflation target is no longer credible. De-globalization, the transition to alternative energy, the need to pay workers more, lower-risk, shorter supply chains are all inflationary. The Fed cannot change its target now, but will likely do so in the future.
