00:11 Your Bank Has Failed
13:25 The Case Against Lehman Brothers
26:50 Bank of America
38:58 Where's the Bottom?
I used to think everybody went broke during the Great Depression and other major crashes but they didn’t… Some made millions, I also thought everybody went out of business during these times but they didn’t, some went into business, there's always depression/recession for some people and there's always a good time for others, it's all about perspective.
most of these strategies and loopholes are better managed by experts and pros in the market, the average Investor on the other hand are left to suffer during a crash.
The issue is people always have the “I’ll have to do it myself mentality” Unapologetically, that’s why the get heavily affected during a crash and coupled with the fact we’ve had the longest bull run ever in the American history, most folks aren’t equipped to manage this crash and it’s impending opportunities well enough, so it only makes sense to seek proper guidance during these times, that’s what investment advisers are for, been using one ever since the pandemic 2020 and I’ve been barely affected by crash, I have $850k in profit sitting in my portfolio and I’m unbothered about the market outcomes.
I’ve been down a ton, I’m only holding on so I can recoup, I really need help, who is this investment-adviser that guides you
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Carol Vivian Constable turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
I just checked her out on google and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
So I remember I just got married and got my first home few months before the crash happened in 2008, with huge mortgage loans, of course, and a couple tens of thousands of dollars in the stock market, which got wiped out while I lost my home. It really ruined my finances. I have since recovered, and have been able to build up to $380k again in portfolio, but I can see the trend again, and I'm really worried about how to protect my finance this time around.
It was the worst of times, really. I had a similar experience, but I since learnt that naïveté played a huge role. I know a lot of people whom I had better knowledge of the market, but they survived the crash because they worked with a professional. I have since switched to doing the same, and I have no worries anymore.
@@victorlaranjahal Very true. The advantage of a professional financial advisor extends beyond market crashes. I learnt this lesson in 2020 following the COVID market crash, when I started working with my advisor, and I've been returning almost $200k per quarter from the same market people fear it's crashing.
@@cloudyblaze7916 Wow. I've heard independent advisors make mouth watering returns, and I've been shopping around for a while, but having a hard time settling. Maybe you could recommend yours, if that is okay.
@@cloudyblaze7916 Thank you so much. I already have a $250k portfolio, but I will like to transfer it under the management of an advisor. Do you think that is possible?
i guess in this situation you would be focusing on your liquid assets and minimizing the losses on the market so you can afford to pay the mortgage? what would you do? trying to learn from others
Still with Tesla stock, investors can never be sure what will happen next, bearish periods ultimately establish a new set of stocks to buy and watch while setting the stage for a robust new uptrend. I have been reading articles of people that grossed profits up to $250k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?
The strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.
Yes, I've been in constant touch with a Financial Analyst for approximately 8 months. You know, these days it's really easy to buy into trending stocks, but the task is determining when to sell or keep. That's where my manager comes in, to help me with entry and exit points in the industries I'm engaged in. Can’t say I regret it, I’m 40% up in profits just in 5months with my initial capital of $160k.
in as much as my knowledge of the business is limited, it seems that this is the ideal time to enter the market based on my understanding of supply and demand in the economy. The consistent price variations, which shouldn't be an issue, are the only thing stopping me. But I really need a counselor; could you please assist me?
One of the fiduciaries I deal with is Alicia Ann Jordan. Just check the name. There would be a letter with the necessary information to set up an appointment.
I'm grateful for this advice. Finding your coach wasn't too hard. I researched her well before arranging to speak with her on the phone. Considering her resume, she appears competent.
America is currently plagued by the hydra-headed evil duo of inflation and recession. The worst part about this recession is that consumers are racking up credit card debt. In April alone, credit card debt went up 20% while rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so high that consumers are literally taking debt for basic life necessities. Collapse has indeed begun.. Lloyd Bernard
Collapse is generous 1st time in our history with a full generation that wasn't taught financial literacy, civics, Google fixes their problems if their parents don't do it for them. Reckoning for participation trophies is incoming.
Iron-ically, these are the conditions in which life-changing money is made by those who remain calm, patient, and take controlled risks. Volatility goes both ways. The banks are in a big crisis. The market looks very shaky. The bigger the red candles, the bigger the green ones. I have made over 280k in the last 4 months by invest-ing through my FA.
Wow. I've heard similar success story from people who work with advisrs. How do I get in touch with yours, please?
There are many you could potentially find online. I personally work with Deborah Sue Bohn , and she's been spectacular. But there are also many others you could check out yourself.
Thank you for this tip. it was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her résumé
Thank you 60 minutes for uploading these. It's so important to have easy and free access to our history so that we can learn from the past.
They do it because this will happen again.. 😅 conditioning for an other bank failure .. housing inflation caused by Government regulations on bank rates will be to blame this time .
@@johnortiz6225 They have inside knowledge. Media is prepping us...
@@RealMTBAddict I Agree
@@johnortiz6225hey prepped us for the substation attacks in the same way. There was one attack a decade ago in cali. Then last summer 60 minutes ran a report on it and what do you know tons of substation attacks followed
Learn from the past? Yeah right.
I think J Powell needs to watch this video before anyone else! 😂
With inflation running at a four-decade high, the Recession is now the ‘most likely outcome for the economy and I cannot imagine being a victim of circumstances. My portfolio suffered a big hit, holding it further won’t be any good. I've heard of people netting hundreds of thousands this red season. How can I ensure this?
True, the idea of a portfolio-coach used to sound generic, but a new study by investopedia actually found that demand for portfolio-coaches sky-rocketed by over 41.8% since the pandemic and based on firsthand encounters, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch, I've raised over $700k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K all within 14months.
@@Adukwulukman859 I will be retiring in two years and I have a goal of doing that with $1M. How can I reach out to your guide?
@@ZITABELCOMEDY-xf1ws The advisor I use is actually quite known, you might have heard of her, Laura Marie Ray, she's been featured on several platforms including CNBC and Bloomberg, you can search her name.
@@Adukwulukman859 I just looked up Laura Marie Ray online and researched her accreditation. She seem very proficient, I wrote her detailing my Fin-market goals.
Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.
My main concern now is how can we generate more revenue during quantitative times? I can't afford to see my savings crumble to dust.
It's a delicate season now, so you can do little or nothing on your own. Hence I’ll suggest you get yourself a financial expert that can provide you with valuable financial information and assistance
Very true! I've been able to scale from $50K to $189k in this red season because my Financial Advisor figured out Defensive strategies which help portfolios be less vulnerable to market downturns
@@kenanporubsky2122 How can I reach this adviser of yours? because I'm seeking for a more effective investment approach on my savings?
@@hermanramos7092 My consultant is ‘’Christine Jane Mclean’’ I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care supervision. I basically follow her trade pattern and haven't regretted doing so.
Bad year for me, META down 40k, ALLP down 35k, Draft Kings down 6k, NIO down 15K, ABML down 8k, and my wife doesn’t know. I'm just hanging on to Jim Cramer's words about opportunities in volatile times so perhaps, I either wait for a recovery or pick profitable investments to substitute for my loss.
Quite frankly there are actually ways to make high yields amidst volatile times, but such trades are best done under the supervision of a portfolio-coach.
@@AshtonGrace I agree with Grace on having a portfolio coach, also patience is your best friend here. I'm a huge investor and cant afford to take the risk of investing by my knowledge, rather my portfolio is overseen by a license advisor, since late 2019 amidst rona-outbreak till date. I'm only about $86k short of closing in a $1m ROI
@@Rachelschneider03 magnificent! can you please share more info on the coach that guides you?
@@MariusNatt Cant divulge much, her name is "Maria Teresa Tyler" most likely, the internet is where to find her basic info, kindly research.
@@Rachelschneider03 thanks a bunch for saving me backward and forward hours of researching the mrkts, I just copied and pasted "Maria Teresa Tyler" on my browser, and her site appeared top search, no nonsense at all. She looks impeccable.
Transfer of wealth usually occur during market crash, so the more stocks drop, the more I buy, in the meanwhile I'm just focused on making better investments and earning more as recession fear increases, apparently there are strategies to 3x gains in this present market cos I read of someone that pulled a profit of $350k within 6months, and it would really help if you could make a video covering these strategies.
Please can you leave the info of your advisor here? I’m in dire need for one
Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
Market declines, soaring inflation, a significant increase in interest rates by the Fed, and rising Treasury yields all point to additional losses for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the present market turbulence? I'm still debating whether to sell my $125,000 ETF/Growth Stock portfolio.
Concentrate on two main objectives. First, keep yourself safe by knowing when to sell stocks in order to limit losses and maximize gains. Second, get ready to benefit from market changes. I advise consulting a CFP or other professional for advice.
We must consider safer investments with promising returns in order to plan for the future. If you approach investing with a five-year perspective and simply DCA whenever you receive a check. Under the direction of my investment advisor, "Deborah Sue Bohn", whose expertise in portfolio diversification is unsurpassed and client-focused, my portfolio has gained almost $643k since January 2022.
@@PhilipMurray251 how do i find this lady you just mentioned?
@@PhilipMurray251 Deborah really seem to know her stuff. I found her website, read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive. She is a fiduciary who will act in my best interest. So, I booked a session with her
My advice to new investors: Buy good companies stocks and hold them as long as they are good companies. Just do this and ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless. In just 5 months my portfolio grew by $300k in gross profit, the main thing is to diversify your portfolio and you will see amazing results by investing smartly.
My portfolio has good companies, however it has been stalling since last year. I have approximately $200k stagnant in my reserve that needs growth.
@Trevor Ogden Yes i agree and right now the markets are going berserk. This is the best time to watch them, get to know them better, and strike when the opportunity presents itself. I learned that from my mentor, "LISA ELLEN SHAW" she's seen dozens of market cycles over the past few decades, and she has a feel for how they move, why they move, and what comes next.
@@Americanpatriot723 Mind if I ask you to recommend how to reach this particular coach you using their service? Seems you've figured it all out unlike the rest of us.
Most likely, you can find her basic information online; you are welcome to do further study.

Recessions are an inherent aspect of the economic cycle, and the key is to get ready and adapt. I entered the workforce during a downturn in 2009. My initial job out of college was as an aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Presently, I hold the position of VP at a global corporation, own three rental properties, invest in stocks and businesses, operate my own company, and have grown my net worth by $500k in the past four years.
With supervision from an investment advis0r, I diversified my $401k portfolio across various markets, resulting in a net profit of over $850k within just a few months, thanks to high dividend-yielding stocks, ETFs, and bonds.
How can I get in touch with your advisor? I'm interested in finding a more effective investment strategy for my savings.
My CFA, Stacey Lee Decker, is highly esteemed for her proficiency and deep expertise in the financial market. She possesses an in-depth knowledge of portfolio diversification and is considered an authority in this field.
She seems quite knowledgeable and well-educated. I just Googled her name and found her webpage. Thanks for sharing!
What I like about Stacey is her willingness to listen, collaborate and educate always. She is impressive indeed.
I'm glad we are looking back at the 2008 recession. I think much of what went on hasn't been investigated properly. I know, in my neighborhood we starved. Several days with no food sometimes and this was never reported. I lived near some railroad tracks and shanty towns of hundreds of people popped up. I wish these stories of regular Americans could be told also because they certainly were not at the time.
we are witnessing another historic downturn this isnt ancient history . the question is will it be only a tad less severe but still historic just as bad or worse. we had our roaring 20s from 2010-2020 pandemic war inflation. we are only missing a random day the markets melt down and my guess is we will see that mid-late 2023 or mid 2024 at latest

I was working for Lehman brothers right until it crashed and burned. After all these years, all I can see is insatiable greed from the top to the people who borrowed money they knew they couldn’t repay - off of houses they couldn’t milk equity from every 6 months any longer. I saw all those subprime loans, it’s ridiculous how everyone thought the good times were going to last.
This is exactly the content I needed.
How thoughtful of that lady to go by the bank to tell one of the employees that she hoped they were alright and she hoped no one was let go! WOW! Compassion and thoughtfulness should be shown more often.
Every day we have a new problem. It's the new normal. At first we thought it was a crisis, now we know it's a new normal and we have to adapt. this year will be a year of severe economic pain all over the nation.. what steps can we take to generate more income during quantitative adjustment?I can't afford my hard-earned $180,000 savings to turn to dust

It doesn’t surprise me that the banks being targeted are primarily smaller, local banks, reducing small banks, assuring, larger institutions can fill the gap. The wrong doing by the corporate Giants has not been nor will be addressed. This is another example of the decimation of local business by large corporate interests. I’m not questioning the legitimacy of these banks that are being targeted, but why is it always restricted to small business?
It's been planned this way the entire time. we can all look forward to no more cash and social credit scores
Welcome to the age of the monopolies and multinational corporations. You work for the shareholder's benefit, not your own.

Consolidation of power.
That why I as even little old commoner understand nations moving to get out from the USD as the primary world currency. To This artificial Ghost currency crap where it's manipulated to the whims of the wizard of oz is too unstable and leads to cycles of greed and corruption by financial oligarchs over the lives of the rest of the world at large is asinine. And MSM covers none of that now and will act as if shocked when events unfold . The dollar going down in value, cost going up. Unstable and artificially pumped numbers into it's markets. And they'll roll out their master plan to introduce the citizen pay app.
I believe I should watch a video on "How to survive the current recession" given the state of things. Actually, it's a complete failure. The fact that some people could still earn more than $$$k in a short period of time astounded me. If that's still the case, please explain how.
Keep this in the back of your mind. There are good days and bad days. It's a zero-sum game, but keep this advice in mind: spend wisely, invest wisely, and diversify your holdings so that when one performs poorly, the others do as well. This can be accomplished by hiring a knowledgeable specialist whose platform provides a wide range of investment options. By doing so, you leave little room for regrets and may even gain more.
@@harod033 Would you mind recommending a specialist with a variety of investment options? This is extremely rare, and I eagerly await your response.

I’m starting to watch 60 minutes more and more again. I want to know what has been going on and they are doing serious investigating like they used to do.
I wish we could go back to the days of objective journalism before it became profitable to play favorites and lie, ya know when truth was something they told.
Thank you for bringing this topic up again so thoroughly. It needs to be talked about and understood public wide despite many still slightly shuddering whenever hearing the year, 2008.
I was laid off twice during that recession that lasted multiple years. I feel like enough time has passed that people forgot the lesson. The situation this time is different thanks to Covid and wreckless injection of capital. But greedy people have again just found another way to game the system creating another mess. While lending standards are stricter this time, a hot stock market and money injection has again allowed for a ton of loans to be taken out. Super low interest, some people getting rich off of crypto pyramid schemes, etc.. fueled this.
It’s so ominous how these were uploaded and Silicon Valley Bank went under three weeks later….😳😳😳
Very informative
I just bought more of these a few minutes ago. Tying up money due to an apocalyptic stock market crash is also not a smart move. Life is a risk and it's better to take risks than to do nothing, you can't always expect to make huge profits all the time, people have so many opinions about a recession/depression. In just 5 months my portfolio grew by $300,000 in gross profit, the main thing is to expand your portfolio and you will see amazing results by investing
These are surely desperate times, but in my opinion, there is no market condition that a good financial advisor cannot navigate, especially those that have existed since the crisis of 2008 and before.

the 2008 recession was just awful for so many people--my security company in Memphis went out of business in Feb. 2009 because of the ripple effect on the economy.
It started in America but the knock on affect into Europe was #Armagedon .. the whole of America and Europe was tied in together. Seeing it in Ireland when Lehman went under unbelievable ordinary working class in America and Ireland #europe suffered

I just started an apprenticeship the same time the bank took our house from an adjustable rate mortgage going up %400. I had to live out of my car to get to work to find out that changing my address put me out of work jurisdiction, but I had hope. I found some temporary places to live while doing city jobs but we eventually lost healthcare. After I survived nearly dying and pushing for health care after getting sick doing those city jobs, I could hardly breathe or walk. Sure had hope though, hope job contracts and healthcare packages would go through. You'd have to live through and survive it to believe it. Almost forgot a worthwhile mention of a certain bank charging me $1000 in overdrafts for a cheeseburger they listed as a 'medical emergency' simply because I bought it at a hospital cafeteria. I was charged $50 in fees every 12 hours. After going all the way up the chain they don't do that anymore. There I was working for a living while some of these swindlers tried to rob my hard earned paycheck. Was I ever aggravated they got away with some of it.

We had a country required assessment during 2008 and my husband and I had to come out of retirement to come up with the $10,000 we needed for that assessment. There were almost no jobs to be found in our small rural community. We each found two parttime jobs 30 minutes away at $10.00 and $7.49 an hour. 2008--2012 was a very bad time for many of us.
May I know what was the assessment for?

We are very short-sighted people. 2008 the economy crashes; a few years later, everyone starts borrowing to excess again. In the US, the average savings rate is very low. Our standards have grown. Home sizes in the 1970s were about half, or less, than today. So many more things are deemed "necessities." The only things that really are necessities in today's world that weren't back then are cell phones and internet access. But by cell phones, I don't mean the latest and greatest available. We have to discern a want from a need and be diligent. Saving is important. Get rich quick schemes leave people with nothing. We can't control what the economy is doing, but we can control our personal economy, and that better prepares us for the rough times.
We need another one.
Historically Important!

I remember the 2008 recession. My mom lost her job and we were homeless for a while. We went from motel to motel and had to live with family.
Here we are near the end of 2023, there has been no work this month at a Bakery production Company in Anaheim CA. Where I work PT, on call. Reading about numerous layoffs in CA. While not in the thousands, still if a Company has 50 employees or more, they still have to report the number of layoffs. Hope we don't slide into recession, what with Covid still around and seemingly never ending economic uncertainty, there could be another bad downturn. Maybe deeper than the one in 2008-09

The next recession will be much worse than the one in 2008. The trigger won't be mortgages, but consumer loans like credit card debt, car loans, student loans etc.
Not really a lot of talk about why a bank fails or what happens to executives who run the bank into the ground. I agree, government needs to break up any institution that is "too big to fail".
If anything has to be done in secret .. there is something shady going on somewhere along the line of the process.
Great Reporting! Please keep it coming. Citibank Bailout.
I knew what FDIC was. But before this video I had no knowledge of how it worked and operated. Thank you for the in depth reporting!
VERY INFORMATIVE.
Shout out to my bank SVB.
"Egregious accounting shenanigans" 😂 22:46
It makes sense. The FDIC is there to protect the customers to stay in the bank. That way they’re able to find a buyer because it will be more difficult to sale a bank with no customers.
We're still in a Boom-Bust system ever since Glass-Steagal has been revoked. It'll be another overinflated asset class soon that just crashes again, you'll see it in the next year.
Wow amazing interview thank you for sharing
not much gets my heart racing but this video was great(sad time but important information)
The banking scandal was the very reason Satoshi created Bitcoin back in 2008, the SEC are corrupt with Gary Gensler up to his eyes in the FTX scandal .. and why is Ernst & Young still allowed to operate? Things really don’t improve, just change. Thanks for the videos.
How timely, Silicon Valley Bank was just seized by the FDIC
I loved 2008-2009. My wife and I purchased 3 rentals. Got them dirt cheap. All construction work was almost non existent. I got work done for 1/3 of what it would have cost before the crash. My wife and I sold these rentals last year. I can retire comfy…
Wow,im glad i watched this video very good information for when this happens again. Thanks 60 Minutes
Wow! That recession was really great!
wow that is scary thumbs up
the only story i care about is that fact that none of the people who had a major hand in causing it and got ultra rich got in any trouble at all and are still trading to this day
By starting my company debt free in 2006, always keeping company deposits below the FDIC insured maximum, and never going into debt, it survived the 2008 collapse and a decade beyond just fine to retirement.
Even if a non dollar-denominated asset sees no real gains during inflation that's still much better than holding cash and seeing your real purchasing power undermined. In other words, sometimes you have to chose between the lesser of two evils.
Yes Donald. I would rather lose 3% on a stock due to inflation than lose 10% on cash due to the same inflation.
One thing I always have at the back of my head is the Rockefeller's advice on how to earn during times like this; while others are panicking and selling or holding,
My primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I know the risks of short term gains are much greater but if well managed one'd make a killing, am I wrong?
@@leemarty2765 These strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.
@@leemarty2765 I was investing on my own for about 3years, did my own study and analysis before actually buying, things became rather difficult after the pandemic which was right about when I reached out to a portfolio-advisor for guidance.
here we go again !
So why is altays and option arms provided. ????
PS : i hope 60 min plans on doing a dedicated show on Jimmy Carters history .
I hope we learned from this. I was working on and off during the Great Recession as the Tech Industry was in a loop and hire and layoff.
what world do you live in? we are seeing a historic recession right now . housing is melting down for the 2nd time since 1940 . disposable income is the lowest since 1932 . debt is historic we had a pandemic not seen since 1918 this downturn will be worse then any recession from the years 1950-2000
@@brianoleson9224 Simply put, we did not learn from this
@@justinmullenix1523 if you read some of the comments on this video and others people are not to worried about another historic recession atleast not any time soon like the "experts" say its a once in 70 year event, most people know we are in a recession but they dont seem to think things are going to tank soon why is that what do they know that we dont
@brianoleson9224 a lot of people make little to no effort to understand economics or history, they intentionally distract themselves with fantasy, they don't dig into the weeds or read the fine print, they pay other people to think for them, and they parrot the mainstream "don't worry, be happy" talking points rather than entertain potential problems
@@justinmullenix1523 yes but people should have known 3 years ago to brace for hard times because of a rare pandemic. A 5th grader reads about the history of 1910-1930 and it mirrors today
Amazing how this video was back in 2008.
She seemed to be the best financial leader that has ever been interviewed. Very honest and forthcoming. She’s also very beautiful.
The economy is doing the same as it was in 2008 they just won't call it a recession and we have inflation.
The timing of this is uncanny. All whilst the FDIC is planning to make a big announcement. They’re gearing up for something
Insolvency
What announcement and when??
They're*
@@bolognatony8739 exactly! The biggest financial collapse the world has ever known is coming quickly!
Bail-ins and FDIC insolvency.
"I can neither confirm, nor deny"! greatest response when the tip of the spear, is under the neck.
08:20 the banks are not legally allowed to let you leave with a suit case full of money unless they call for a police escort first. I was going to take $250,000 cash from one bank to another once and found this out the hard way. We wound up wiring the money. They couldn't do a cashier's check....
Worst part we haven’t held Wall Street accountable, audit the Federal Reserve and bring back Glass Steagall.
Another housing bubble was formed and is blowing up again.
I remember this.
Insurance is required in many instances which comes from lobbying and campaign finance so in a way its an indirect tax
Apparently the FDIC doesn’t always pay the deposit owners right away! How long can that take months or years?
In 2019, I came into the office one day and saw one of my coworkers with his hands covering his face. He was in distress. What happen was prior to the events of 2008, his mother got a loan on a house via local mortgage broker. They were Haitians and with unrest in their own nation, they aren’t trusting of major institutions but trusted the broker because he talked and looked like them. Long story short, his mother made payments and paid off the house. Unfortunately, the broker pocketed the money and took off. Only minimum amounts were paid and wasnt traceable. So in 2019, when they tried to move, they found out they didn’t own the house or had proof they made payments. Since it was linked the mortgage crisis and banking collapse; Wells Fargo had to absorb the loss since it was them that backed the loan and had allowed it to happen. It was a positive ending for my coworker but caused a lot of heart ache.
More quarters and outlooks from big tech names, powered by Nvidia (which has more chips than we thought!), as well as this trader FOMO, may lead to renewed buying strength in markets in September and October. I want to invest more than $300k, but I'm not sure on how to mitigate risk
Nvidia stock is roaring like many did during the 1990s bubble. But this time around, the hype around new chips is happening in a more mature demand environment.
Based on his figures on housing trends and patterns, I wonder if he could give an estimate on when housing prices will go anywhere near reasonable.

It was not Wall St that caused the failures, those are great products. The government pushed out lending by buying mortgages through GSE Freddie Mac and the GSE Fed’s too low rates. It’s the failure of individual borrowers and brokers, who had too much money available.
@@frederickmfarias3109 Bwahaha !!! Most didn't even know what those products were. Especially Greenspan..lol By the time they figured out it was betting and then betting against the failed betting. Bwahaha .. yes it was the governments fault because they were "good products". Wow, just wow. I hope this is a joke without the /s. C'mon.
The lending institutions gambling with mortgages caused the whole recession period !
@@bryanharrell4059 For example, someone who is able to get an adjustable for 1-2%, that will go up to 5%, after 6 years, and actually can either plan to sell before or pay the higher rate is better off with that lower rate. If the borrower did not plan well and/or did not sell that is where the problem comes in.
@@bryanharrell4059 I don’t think Greenspan fully understood that the Federal Reserve GSE *is* the problem (having an authority over the market); he was then the problem in setting rates at all instead of the market, he set 1%, prior to the boom, below the cost, so as Reagan used to say “Government is the problem, not the solution.”
This aired one week before the stock market bottomed.
