How Taxpayers Became Major Shareholders in Bank Bailouts

Gordon Brown has changed the face of banking in Britain -- effectively taking control of three of the country's biggest names with a 37-billion-pound rescue deal.

Who is Actually Covering the Cost of the Bank Bailouts?

The FDIC is broke. No, I am not kidding. Look at their website where they show you exactly how much money they have. The deposit insurance fund balance is about $125 billion. That puts their reserve ratio at only 1.26%. That is right, 1.26% is the ratio of how much money the FDIC has versus all the bank accounts that they would need to bail out should they need to do so. About $125 billion means they do not even have enough to bail out Silicon Valley Bank. But as we know, Silicon Valley Bank just got bailed out. So where is the money coming from? And according to the White House and everybody talking about this, it will not cost the taxpayer a dime. So how are depositors at these failed banks getting a free lunch? Well, shocker, they are not.

My Bear Market Investing Guide only $99 - Don't Miss Out! What is the best investment that one can make when inflation is happening?

Something like a tip, a treasury inflation protected security is supposed to pay you a positive real rate because it's protected from inflation. However, this year, TIPS have had some lackluster performance, to say the least. And we're going to dive into why.
