All Central Banks are being pumped, Not Trumped!
The Massive Silver Shortage: What Bank’s Don’t Want You to Know
Bank of America Corporation $BAC Total Debt (mrq) $799.69B Book Value Per Share (mrq) only $35.37
Bank of America predicts that the price of silver will average $35 per ounce in 2026. This is based on a number of factors, including:
Interest rates: The end of central bank interest rate hikes is expected.
Investment: Investment in precious metals is expected to increase.
Gold market: A positive spillover effect from the gold market is expected, with gold prices reaching $3,000 per ounce by 2025.
Demand: Global silver demand is projected to reach over 1.2 billion ounces in 2024.
Supply: Supply constraints are expected to decrease supply by 1% to 1.0 billion ounces in 2024.
Silver is considered a tangible asset with a unique blend of stability and growth potential. It has a low correlation with equities and bonds, making it a good diversification and risk-reduction tool. $BAC $GLD $SLV
That's who I use, and Fidelity. They both were glitchy during that Aug 5th crash though. I also use JPM. I've been very pleased with my Navy Federal and Pentagon Federal Credit Unions.
I used to do business with BofA but no more.
Oh yes! Good point. They should probably have some freebies and bonuses!
Moved that 30K to my Schwab which isn't FDIC protected but if bad things happen and I can't trade in Merrill then maybe my Schwab can. I remember a few months ago when my BofA checking had a 0 balance glitch for the early morning which to me was a warning shot. I thought I was hacked and found out it happened to a LOT of BofA people. Will look into Exchange Bank and probably two bigger banks that I don't like JPM/Chase and WFC and see what freebies' they'll give me to open accounts. lol
I think you're right. Dollar devaluation will continue, as gold has a 5000-year track record. Not sure what gold and silver will do short term, but I always like to have it no matter what the market or economy is doing.
Been thinking about Costco gold bars for a while now which might be better than cash. Also Exchange Bank is a local bank that one of the founder's Frank Doyle put just over 50% of the shares in a trust that gives students in the local college SRJC scholarships from the dividends. I use to bank with them but BAC gave me too much free stuff that I consolidated there. Sneaky too big to fail bastards. Yes been watching WB sell that off to where he won't have to report it til ER. Yet the overall market just keeps chugging along.
Actually, I like your cash in mattress idea! 🙂 No one really knows which one could go bust, Even with FDIC it may take time to access. Having everything spread out like you say, allows for immediate access to funds, if one does goes bust. I think that's smart.
maybe it's time to put 50K in 4-5 different places.
I use BofA and Merrill and I transferred 30K from Merrill to BofA (BAC) Then next day I logged onto Merrill and got a message that said 'You're continuing to Merrill. Non deposited products are not insured by the FDIC; are not deposits;and may lose value.'
Well that's interesting and I wondered if trading accounts were protected if through the bank so I'd say that is a NO! So with almost 250K I've been thinking of moving some to my old TDA now Schwab but maybe it's time to put 50K in 4-5 different places. I've moved larger chucks than that 30K and never saw a message like that before but not feeling confident with BofA or the whole system. Cash in mattress?!? lol
Bank of America, says silver going to $35. With this should be $75 Silver to See Growing Deficit in 2024 as Supply Struggles

Unrealized losses at US banks are 7x higher than during the 2008 financial crisis.
Banks are required to mark to market every quarter unrealized gains AND losses.
It's Amazing that BAC, still cooking the books while customers can't access their accounts even after Blackrock files for BK last week, Oct. 2024.

Fun Fact - $BAC doesn’t mention any risk related to its silver short positions at all in its 10-Q risk disclosures.

"...Becoming a huge problem...?
How about "...is a huge problem...?
Do the big banks' trillions in derivatives raise any red flags?
"...US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said that fraud in the banking system is becoming a huge problem and that her department is now using artificial intellignece to detect and deal with the issue.
“I absolutely agree with the premise — which is that fraud is becoming a huge problem,” Yellen said in answering a question after delivering prepared remarks to an event hosted by the American Bankers Association...."
Wells Fargo revenue and EPS dropped. Income is 12% lower than prior year (16% drop when adjusting for inflation).
JPM net income was down 2% prior to inflation (6% drop w/ inflation).
BAC net income 12% lower than prior year’s quarter (16% drop w/ inflation).
Defaults and bankruptcies are up!! Most companies reporting lower net income than prior year even while the government is injecting $2.5 trillion per year (policy is both unsustainable and insufficient)
Amen! I agree and BLK, VOO, DB JPM and BAC will all fall with the fake Bitcoin going to zero. Scriptures aren't being taken for what it's worth and in the end, it will be the meek that inherit the Earth with Globalists powerless. All in his grip.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of the public (sheep) are hopelessly invested in the propaganda they've been told, that even when presented with hard data they refuse to believe anything that goes against the narrative. It's like a religion and questioning anything is somehow sacrilegious.
People will never believe anyone telling them the economic crash is coming, until it's over. All these people sitting on fake profits from the Mag 7 are about to realize they were fooled, and it's never... different this time. In my opinion right after the election everything crashes, unless a black swan event occurs before that. Wealth transfer will happen soon.
2 Timothy 4:3 says, "For the time will come when people will not listen to sound doctrine, but instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth."
It over!
The Numbers Don’t Lie
Bank of America’s recent financial performance paints a grim picture. The final quarter of the previous year revealed a startling drop in earnings. The bank’s net income nosedived over 50% to $3.1 billion, compared to $7.1 billion a year earlier. While some may brush this off as a rough patch, the numbers speak volumes about deeper issues. Revenue, too, took a hit, falling to $22.1 billion against the expected $23.74 billion. This isn’t just missing the mark; it’s a financial red flag waving in the face of investors and analysts alike.
Bank of America Outage: Customers report widespread outage and zero balances, but their debt balances still showed.

So, they could send money in, but not take it out?

Buffett Dumps More BofA Shares As Stake Nears Key 10% Non-Reporting Level:
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/buffett-dumps-more-bofa-shares-stake-nears-key-10-non-reporting-level
It's a full blown panic and getting worse.
Whooofff Ha Ha Ha ! Told ya BOA got some things crumbling. Look out below. It's Friday... lol you won't know what happened untill Tuesday Ha ha ha !
if Buffett sells ~50M more shares he will go below the 10% ownership threshold of $BAC. At that point he will no longer be required to file promptly disclosures anymore.
In other words, once he goes below 10% he will be able to dump $BAC shares at a faster pace but we will only know the information with a big delay into the next 13-F filing!
That is the proven track record aye?
BOA board members & se staff are in a full all out panic. They see the writting on the wall is way to close now to not panic.

These big banks owe everyone is America money. They were bailed out with your tax dollars, then turn around hit you with exorbitant rates, penalties and fees, then further gamble with "your money". These banks will be the ones foreclosing on Americans mortgages while they get bailed out w/ your money. Not to mention being party to the devaluing of everyone's fiat currency (US Dollar worthless).
Moral Hazard:
@SuburbanDrone
BofA came out this morning and said that a soft payroll report is the biggest threat to Tech stocks:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bofa-hartnett-says-us-semiconductor-100929983.html
Which is interesting because just a few days ago they said that a strong jobs report is the biggest threat to stocks:
https://aol.com/stock-markets-biggest-risk-week-193425153.html
For bulls, all bases are covered.
lol. Buffet can't get rid of the stock fast enough.

Corporate Structure
Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation.
Website: www.ml.com/US
Debt Profile
Prior to Merrill Lynch's acquisition by Bank of America, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. (ML & Co.) was the primary issuer of Merrill Lynch's debt instruments. Debt instruments were also issued by certain subsidiaries. ML & Co. is no longer a primary issuer of new unsecured borrowings under the Bank of America platform. Bank of America has not assumed or guaranteed the long-term debt that was issued or guaranteed by ML & Co. or its subsidiaries prior to the acquisition of Merrill Lynch by Bank of America.
Following the completion of Bank of America's acquisition of Merrill Lynch, ML & Co. became a subsidiary of Bank of America and established intercompany lending and borrowing arrangements to facilitate centralized liquidity management. Included in these arrangements is a $50 billion extendible one-year revolving line of credit that allows Bank of America to borrow funds from Merrill Lynch at a spread to LIBOR that is reset periodically and is consistent with other intercompany agreements. The line of credit matures on January 1, 2014 and will automatically be extended by one year to the succeeding January 1st unless Merrill Lynch provides written notice not to extend at least 45 days prior to the maturity date. There were no amounts outstanding at both March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 under this credit facility. There is also a short-term revolving credit facility that allows Bank of America to borrow up to an additional $25 billion. Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is based on prevailing short-term market rates. The line of credit matures on February 11, 2014. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximately $10.7 billion and $16.2 billion, respectively, was outstanding under this line of credit.
