Jamie Dimon warns panic will overtake markets as U.S. approaches debt default
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said Thursday that markets will be gripped by panic as the U.S. approaches a possible default on its sovereign debt.
An actual default would be “potentially catastrophic” for the country, Dimon told Bloomberg in a televised interview. Dimon said he expects that worst-case scenario will be avoided, however, because lawmakers will be forced to respond to growing concern.
“The closer you get to it, you will have panic” in the form of stock market volatility and upheaval in Treasurys, he said.
Dimon joined a host of business figures and administration officials making dire predictions about the consequences of failing to raise or suspend the U.S. debt limit and allowing the world’s largest economy to default on its bonds. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has said the idea that the country could default should be “unthinkable” and would lead to economic disaster.
“If it gets to that panic point, people have to react, we’ve seen that before,” Dimon said.
But “it’s a really bad idea, because panic becomes something that is not good,” he added. “It could affect other markets around the world.”
War room
JPMorgan, the biggest U.S. bank with about $3.7 trillion in assets, has been preparing for the risk of an American default, Dimon said.
Such an event would ripple through the financial world, impacting “contracts, collateral, clearing houses, and affect clients definitely around the world,” he said.
The bank’s so-called war room has been gathering once weekly, a rate that will shift to daily meetings around May 21 and then three meetings daily after that, he said.
He exhorted politicians from both major U.S. parties to compromise and avoid a ruinous outcome.
“Please negotiate a deal,” Dimon said.
Other banks
In the wide-ranging interview, Dimon said he speaks daily to regional bank executives amid concerns sparked by the Silicon Valley Bank collapse in March. Last week, JPMorgan emerged as the winner in the government-brokered auction for First Republic.
Regional banks are “quite strong” and will have good financial results, but managers are worried because of the bank runs that have taken down three firms, he said.
“I think we have to assume there’ll be a little bit more” to the regional banking crisis, he said.

TD Bank and First Horizon Mutually Agree to Terminate Merger Agreement
May 04 2023 - 06:00AM
PR Newswire (US)
TD Bank Is Unable to Obtain Timetable for Regulatory Approvals for Reasons Unrelated to First Horizon
TORONTO and MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- TD Bank Group (TSX and NYSE: TD) ("TD") and First Horizon Corporation (NYSE: FHN) ("First Horizon" or "the Company") today announced that they have entered into a mutual agreement to terminate their previously announced merger agreement, originally announced on February 28, 2022. TD informed First Horizon that TD does not have a timetable for regulatory approvals to be obtained for reasons unrelated to First Horizon. Because there is uncertainty as to when and if these regulatory approvals can be obtained, the parties mutually agreed to terminate the merger agreement.
Under the terms of the termination agreement, TD will make a $200 million cash payment to First Horizon. This payment is in addition to the $25 million fee reimbursement due to First Horizon pursuant to the merger agreement. The shares of First Horizon Series G Preferred Stock that TD Bank purchased will continue to reflect a conversion price of $25 per share. Neither party will pay any other fees or have any other liabilities to each other related to the merger agreement.

Weebit Nano raises $40M to break ReRAM resistance
April 25, 2023
Startup Weebit Nano has raised $40 million to boost sales of its ReRAM non-volatile memory.
We call it a startup although it IPO’d on the Australian stock exchange in 2016 just one year after being founded to develop ReRAM technology invented and patented by Rice University’s Professor James Tour, an unusual route for an Israeli startup. It merged with Radar Iron in Australia and so gained an Australia Securities Exchange presence. It has raised money since by share placements rather than VC funding rounds, as has just happened with this $40 million gained from selling 12 million shares to international institutional investors and existing shareholders.
A statement from CEO Coby Hanoch said: “Our first ReRAM product is now available to customers through SkyWater Technology, and we are in advanced discussions with many leading fabs and integrated device manufacturers. Funds raised, combined with our strong balance sheet of approximately US$31 million cash at the end of December 2022, ensure we are well placed to transfer and qualify our ReRAM technology in Tier-1 fabs and foundries to capitalize on the growing global need for better performing memory technology.”

Black Swan Graphene Inc. is focused on the large-scale production and commercialization of patented high-performance and low-cost graphene products aimed at several industrial sectors, including concrete, polymers, Li-ion batteries, and others, which are expected to require large volumes of graphene and, in turn, require large volumes of graphite. Black Swan aims to leverage the low cost and green hydroelectricity of the province of Québec as well as the proximity of the eventual production sites of Mason Graphite in order to establish a fully integrated supply chain, reduce overall costs, and accelerate the deployment of graphene usage.

Here inlies their problem. There are now technologies that do not require Graphite to make Graphene. It's my opinion these guys are headed for a major setback. This is not a suggestion to buy or sell this stock .

Regulatory News pertaining to Universal Matter’s proposed acquisition of Applied Graphene Materials
21 February 2023
Applied Graphene Materials plc
("Applied Graphene Materials", the "Company" or the "Group")
Proposed Sale of Shares in the Company’s Main Operating Subsidiaries and Proposed De-Listing of the Company’s Ordinary Shares
Further to the announcement on 13 January 2023, the Board announces that the Company has agreed binding terms with Universal Matter UK Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Universal Matter Inc., (“Universal Matter” or the “Buyer”) to sell the entirety of its shares in Applied Graphene Materials UK Limited (“AGM UK”) and Applied Graphene Materials LLC (“AGM US”), the Company’s main operating subsidiaries (together, the “Subsidiaries”), for a total consideration of US$1.3m (“Consideration”), payable in cash by completion (the “Transaction” or “Disposal”).
Introduction
The Transaction constitutes a disposal resulting in a fundamental change of business under the AIM Rules and is therefore conditional on, inter alia, shareholder approval and National Security and Investment Act 2021 (“NSIA”) approval pursuant to a mandatory notification to be made by the Buyer shortly after the date of this announcement.
A general meeting of the Company’s shareholders will be convened ( “General Meeting”) and a circular sent out to shareholders in due course (the “Circular”). The Company will also put a resolution to shareholders to de-list the Company’s ordinary shares to trading on AIM and convert from a public limited company to a private limited company (the proposed “De-Listing”).
The Circular will set out further reasons why the board believes the Transaction and the De-Listing are in shareholders' best interests.
[....]
Proposed De-Listing
The Directors have for some time been reviewing the merits or otherwise of the Company’s ordinary shares continuing to be admitted to trading on AIM and remaining a public limited company in the UK. The following key factors have been taken into account by the Directors in reaching the conclusion that, assuming completion of the Disposal, the De-Listing is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole:
following completion of the Disposal, there will be negligible assets remaining within the Group which would not justify the costs associated with remaining as a listed business; and
as a cash shell, the Directors believe that the Company would not be of sufficient scale to attract any interest from institutional and other investors and would consequently suffer from a lack of liquidity in its ordinary shares.

Purely speculation but I suspect they will sell and issues licences to company's like Nanoxplore to use this technology in the near future.

ABOUT UNIVERSAL MATTER
Universal Matter has developed cleaner, faster, and less expensive technology to commercialize graphene, a carbon-based nanomaterial with multiple applications. Our proprietary Flash Joule Heating process can convert inexpensive carbon sources into ultra-thin graphene layers with an almost unlimited number of applications.
Headquartered in Burlington, Ontario, Canada, with U.S. headquarters in Houston, Universal Matter’s vision is to build on its strong R&D foundation to scale its production process and become the world’s leading supplier of lower cost and higher quality graphene materials from petcoke, agricultural feedstocks, recycled plastic, recycled rubber and coal.
Currently this is not a public company. Dr Tour holds the patents..he tried to get American companies (specifically headquartered in Houston because he lives there and plans to continue teaching at Rice University) to get involved and run with this truly mind boggling technology that turns ANY carbon based object into Graphene. No takers in Houston stepped up so they put together a group out of Canada. Just so you know what we're talking about when you hear the word 'Graphene' it is just one atom thick (or thin, depending on how you think about it), graphene is among the strongest materials in the known universe, with 100 times the strength of steel, an astonishing amount of flexibility, and a whole lot of other talents lurking beneath the surface.
Since Universal Matter Ltd is not yet public company I plan to track its progress and activity here on the WBTNF board.
