SVB US Government Sell Bonds Debacle.
Mar 17th, 2023 at 12:14pm
 
     US Silicon Valley Bank management selling (purchased during record low interest rates since WW2) US bonds... then after a period of US bond market trading higher interest rates, selling of US bonds exposes bond trading scam.

     Financial institutions whom purchase bonds during low interest rate periods with intentions to hold bonds for bonds entire interest payment period until expiry date indicates a conspiracy against financial institution investors.

     World retirement scheme investors’ financial institutions management buying bonds, while bond interest rates fall, financial institution balance sheets show significant profits as higher yield bonds compared to newly issued lower yielding bonds, funds gain profits, the difference interest rate yield for every year remaining on held bonds.

     When interest rates rise all previous financial bonds capital gains on held bonds are reversed. Gains turn into loses, so when SVB sold held bonds to use cash to supply depositors with cash funds, the reduced value of bonds purchased during record low interest rates compared to existing bond prices newly issued interest rate yields shows the ignorance of financial institution management or a conspiracy to send many financial institutions into bankruptcy as management had long ago bailed out of investments into something else more profitable, such as short selling.

     Bonds, when to buy and when to sell are easy to understand, yet I state working class education traumatised human thinking abilities whom brains are conditioned to remember known short statement knowledge rather than to associate and calculate new knowledge, human brains are more tuned to fight or flight inner brain function protect damaged hippocampus from more damage awareness pain behaviours.

     Finance reporters may mention: bond sell offs; reduced yields; higher yield bond issues… yet fail to explain bond holder loses while newly issued bond yields continue to rise.

     I personally purchased CBA bank 10 year bonds in mid 1994, yields after a short period of 6%, as bond yields increased I managed to invest at 9%, at best in September 1994 at 10%. Sold all bonds in 1998 at 6%, due to constant media news readers speculation statements that interest rates were heading up that previous 6% interest rate was believed to be the lowest rate. Bond rates eventually achieved 4.5% in 1999.

     For every year remaining on CBA purchased 1994 10 year bonds promised bond yields, the differences between 1994 bond interest rate yields to 1998 6% yields times 6 years remaining to maturity, on cashing in bonds I received au$32,000 which was placed in a superannuation fund to reduce taxes.

     I mentioned the above win-fall to my retired school principle who had no idea what I was talking about, his sense of not knowing memories fight or flight reactions persisted in telling me I was wrong, yet as I persisted using my stated win-fall au$32,000 he had to understand. As now SVB bond selling loses were discussed he makes a quick comment that my version of bonds weren’t the same as his version of beliefs of bonds.

     When taking out a bank term deposit, CBA bank teller goes through a statement to which I must sign a statement of understanding the terms of investment. The statement mentions at any time I remove money from my term deposit, the amount I remove will have interest payments adjusted to the time money was removed so as not to allow money to be reinvested in more profitable investments. With bonds being cashed in, bonds have no such restrictions, yet if yields are higher loses can happen as explained above.

     US Federal Banking Board’s fake increasing interest rates fights inflation policy, unknown percentage of US mortgaged houses are in fixed interest rate loans I assume due to unregulated 2000 to 2002 Sub-prime lending followed by 2003 interest rate rising lasting several years… Raising interest rates policy affects businesses more than working class citizenry spending habits.

     US 8000 banks lending long term fixed interest rate mortgages during low interest rates periods while being financed by short term bank term deposits, depositors ability to withdraw money from banks term deposits, Federal Banking Board raising rates excuse to fight inflation seems to me to be an establishment setup economic collapse in-debt working class scam. Banks being unable to lend to new customers, finance to property buyers, property valuations crash to 2007 US levels.

     As I say increasing interest rates are inflationary, a sudden excuse not to continue increasing interest rates to fight inflation due to financial institutions holding onto US bonds and fixed rate lending fear of depositors withdrawals, a 1970s similar inflation period with a lower than inflation percentage US Federal Bank cash interest rate excuse erodes citizenry wealth as had been done during 1970s. Allowing property valuations to decline ready for a new period of high interest rate moderately reduced interest rate lending to first home buyer property investors.

     My end conclusion is that pretend learning school education which punishes human behaviour incentives to truly think, conditioning human instinctive escapism behaviours self-medication from thinking traumas distractions. Establishment appointed so called educated corporation managements fail to care about any mathematical calculations other than future executive bonuses.

       Stores: Woolworths; Coles; Aldi… finance news reporting better than most previous years profits, higher shelf product prices I state are due to increased interest rates. Opportunity Costs theory, cash invested in: goods being sold; store rents; property assets investments; labour wages... could be invested in 4% term deposits. Lost earnings from such cash investments are made up by increasing goods up for sale prices, all mentioned stores are following.

     Decades ago I heard how Catholic church leader’s ideas that if aged 5 years children believed in Catholic church preached ideology children would believe religious teachings for their entire lives. I heard the same statement stated by an ABC24 television breakfast guest talking about psychology the influence information has on children. My retired school principle friend heard the same statement using aged 8 years children as a cut off age. My point being most modern children don’t attend church nor Sunday school religious learning, religious teaching seems to have faded from society, I state television has taken over simple story telling child beliefs propaganda.
     Children come home from mental stressing school wanting relaxation from mental stress learning, often sit in front of a television set listening to repeated theme short news stories. The Drum occupies the time slot Dr Who occupied for many years during the 1970s and 1980s. News stories from 4PM to 8PM contain as it happened: crimes stories; political scandal stories; finance news market forces propaganda; sports; etc. ……. repeated theme short stories children understand using positive reinforcement brain chemical rewarded, believing stories are true, the same as ages leading up to aged 5 years children believe the same age reinforce religious stories are truthful. As most news stories last around 2 minutes, that story after story have no theme relation to each other, each unrelated story removes probable prolonged thinking flow. My belief is that children are programming themselves to acknowledge short headline statements as truthful, not that believing stories are truthful matters. As same stories are repeated as same stories have similar themes, yet not similar themes one story after the other, children are being dumb-ed down by limited information while feeling positive reinforcement while relaxing in front of a television screen after many hours of being trapped in mentally stressful environment classrooms, many mentally stressed children feeling intelligent for understanding news stories, many children telling themselves they’re intelligent for merely understanding remembered simple previously judge true knowledge.
     Many school students and adults whom would rather argue against such above statements I state are more being competitive fight or flight against feeling bad after having been presented with above statements that early childhood learning turned potential Homo-sapien thinkers into Neanderthal emotional decision maker brain chemical self-medicating stimuli junkies.

     Once children learn to simplify memory processing into short statements of irrelevant value to their own lives merely to feel brain chemical rewards as how early childhood learning begins, such simple beliefs memorised behaviours are held for humans entire lives. School merely reinforces such behaviours through daily repetitive learning simple memorising for exams questions requiring short statement answers.

     I come along attempting to explain the complexities of media lies and bad school learning, human reactions of trying to repress gov. school learning negative reinforcement mental stress punishments, fight or flight reactions are to reject what’s being stated to protect damaged by over supplied levels of cortisol inner brain hippocampus from further awareness of pain, attempting to process unknown knowledge into memory locations which have not been previously allocated to be understood.

     Corporate retirement funds spreading risk into foreign corporations I conclude provides propaganda opportunities to blame foreign corporations collapse as reasons why retirement funds suffer losses. 2009 sub-prime mortgage securities caused US Lehman Brothers collapse had many Australian Retirement funds state losses, Labor P.M. Keven Rudd became obsessive about the GFC, frequently appearing on television news programs warning listeners the seriousness of the crises, stating how he prevented/avoided further economic hardship by building school libraries and subsidised ceiling insulation installation, which was cancelled bankrupting many installation installer businesses.

     Media promote STEM subjects… students whom learn maths while feeling mental stresses I speculate once having left schooling, instinctively avoid using maths logic, hence gamblers avoid thinking poker-machines have only an 85% return each time a bet is placed. Betting on anything has percentage loss, yet such ideas are repressed in favour of remembering how brain chemically rewarding winning is, while loses are merely ignored in hopes the next bet collects a reward win.
