Good to see BetaShares launching its new Major Bank Tier 2 bond ETF (ASX: BSUB), which is yielding about 6.2% pa with an average A- credit rating. I reckon this will be a very popular product given the retail demand for Tier 2. By focusing on only the major banks, BetaShares reduce a lot of credit risk Betashares Alex Vynokur https://lnkd.in/gqxZuaD3

'''Valued follower , I've received numerous requests to conduct an analysis of BCH. From my observations, it appears quite likely that BCH will easily achieve a valuation of $9000. I would advise you to sell off half of your holdings at this price, and then implement a trailing stop strategy for the remaining capital, setting it beneath each new low point that follows. Best of luck to you all!''' #BCH #Bitcoincash

Huge news that our whole team is excited about! Corporate treasurers (and investors) are still focused on the importance of a diversified approach to cash management. Not only do they want their cash segmented properly based on liquidity needs, they want it spread between multiple top-tier banks #mufgtechnologybanking #liquiditymanagement #corporatetreasury #technologybanking

First Foundation Bank next in line? Received a massively dilutive lifeline from Fortress, but another example of the absurd amount of leverage in the banking system that the general public simply does not appreciate… First Foundation at its peak had a $1.6b mkt cap and $13.6 billion in assets. That’s 9:1 leverage; again at PEAK equity valuation. The mkt cap is now $280m, a mere 49:1x leverage. Most investors would laugh any company running at 9:1 leverage out of the room, but because it’s a “bank…” How the riskiest companies in the world (banks), that are run on one day loans (deposits), are viewed as financial juggernauts is baffling. The FDIC is going to need a bigger boat.
