First Republic, other regional bank stocks sink after failure of SVB

It may be irrational, but then irrational behavior is whats leads to bank runs.

Why should I keep my money there if I can hit a few buttons and move it somewhere with less perceived risk? What if every one is thinking like that? Great FDIC will step in quickly, I hope.

I think tomorrow will be interesting in general to see how things hold up.

But is it irrational to take your money out if you think there might be a bank run? If I have a large amount of money to lose, I think I’d do the same!

I am. Challenging a statement is not uncivil.
