That's is both the cure and the problem. All of your money is protected by the FDIC. So it's not "At least". Your deposits are protected.
But SME companies have just realized that they are not protected and are busy rearranging their finances, which is seeing a lot of outflows from smaller banks, both to distribute money under the $250K limit as well as a "run to quality" to the big banks.
All small banks with a mix of customers leaning towards SME will be impacted.
