Re:Why America will soon see a wave of bank mergers by Scoundreller on Tuesday May 02, 2023 @03:53PM (#35793210)
I think money market accounts don’t sell off old, but rather they hold short dated stuff to maturity. And constantly reset the rate they pay holders.

Of course, they can have counterparty risks. The counterparty is usually unprepared to actually pay up and expects to rollover its debt.

Sometimes that melts down and doesn’t happen:
