U.S. Banks finished the year with almost $400 billion of unrealized losses on held-to-maturity assets. The assumption is this wouldn't be a problem because the Fed would cut A LOT this year but what if that doesn't happen? > >>> Add to this the fact that ((( last week))) - seasonally-adjusted for tax-season - US banks saw the largest deposit outflows since 9/11 (yes, that 9/11).
