In conclusion, as this graphic of the Great Financial Crisis shows (zoom in), a banking/ financial crisis can take a number of months to play out, though I think the next one will happen much faster due to significantly greater debt/leverage, moral hazard, complexity, stock valuations (in the U.S.), social contagion, high frequency trading, speed of capital, mistrust of government and institutions, clueless policymakers, rampant inflation, a currency that is increasingly eschewed around the world (the U.S. dollar), a dysfunctional labor market, an (artificial) energy shortage, a failing supply chain, and war (including trade wars). Just like before a major earthquake, there are warning signs. The collapse of First Republic Bank is just a tremor, a warning sign of something much larger to come. Get prepared now.
If you look at the graphic and then realize that the market is about twice the size of what it was in 2007, holy crow we're in for a wild ride. I would love to see the same graphic expanded up to current times. I bet that would be shocking
