CW: SVB and bank failures
I’m confused by the media and everyone reacting or reaching for strange explanations of #SVB or the other current bank failures (like being ‘too woke’ or ‘greed and capitalism’ or ‘too much regulation’ or ‘too much deregulation’. Simply, the #FED increased interest rates a lot, recessions very frequently follow interest rate increases, and bank failures frequently occur during those #recessions. This is not an emergency, this was expected. Enjoy your day!

@razumasu Good question. After perusing various sources for a wee bit of time, it appears the tech industry does better than average, but suffers with everyone else.
The companies you mentioned specifically weathered the last #recessions (2008–09, 2018–19) quite differently.
My very assailable assumptions for this hasty conclusion were: (1) it is enough to look at two global recessions; and (2) insight can come from revenue trends alone (very unscientific).
