    The secret ingredient to get on the front page of Forbes is fraud.

      In the case of SVB it wasn’t fraud though, it was more poor risk management; they didn’t hedge against an increase in interest rates and that, together with the bank run when people learned about it, killed them.

        Calling using client funds as collateral for risky investments (over and over again) as poor risk management it is a bit of an understatement.

        Do banks have the authority to freeze withdrawals?
        I don’t get why SVP didn’t just block all withdrawals as the panic set it.

      They’ve got it rigged so the house wins though. The secret is crime, know theirs and do some yourself and you get to run the house until they need a fall guy.

    Forbes isn't handing out a kiss of death. Forbes is just a publication gushing about the headliners of a rapacious and fraudulent group of people. It's like wondering why a bakery smells like bread.

        Sex work is real work and not your generic insult.

        (USING ANY GROUP AS AN INSULT ALSO INSULTS THAT GROUP, IN CASE YOU’RE ALSO IN THAT “THATS RETARDED” PHASE)

    There was a meme in Germany during Chancellor Merkel’s time in office. As soon as Merkel “expressed her utmost confidence” in someone, that person resigned shortly afterwards.

    Maybe Jim Cramer's been ghostwriting for them.

      Just like we have an Inverse Cramer ETF, maybe it’s time for an Inverse Forbes ETF too
