Also these are mark to market losses, and banks typically hold bonds to maturity. The only time this is a problem is if the bank is in need of liquidity and a) reserve ratios are pretty conservative post-2008, and b) the Fed is providing vehicles to support short-term liquidity issues (this reducing the need to sell assets and realize losses).
