@Walt we were talking about the next banking collapse 2 years before Silicon Valley and Signature Bank failed. Well on Thursday 29.Jan.2026, Metropolitan Capital Bank failed. Jamie Dimon said he's too big to fail so keep an eye on the S&P 500 because it will let us know if Dimon is lying.

I predict 2026 will be the start of a banking crisis similar to that of the Great Depression because smartphones make it easy to start a panic on a bank run. You with me?

I predict Trump will make Cuba into the 51st state. Maybe not in 2026 but Trump and Narco Rubio have 3 years to get it done.

In theory, the deposits are covered, so there is no risk for most depositors, and no need to panic. The problem comes up if multiple banks collapse. Let's say banks depend 100% on the stability of gold, then if gold goes down a bit, which it always does, all the banks at once would fail.

Here's the AI Overview but it doesn't come close to explaining all our troubled debt and bubbles--the AI bubble in particular. You will eventually see that QE is still going on but it's kept on the down low.

In early 2026, concerns regarding a potential banking crisis are driven by a combination of high U.S. national debt, sticky inflation, and potential stress from commercial real estate or crypto assets. While the Federal Reserve aims for a soft landing with a 2.3% GDP growth forecast, some analysts warn of risks from rising interest rates, a weakening of capital requirements for banks, and early signs of instability.
