As expected, the Western Central Banks + Japan coordinated to not only bailout Credit Suisse via a -75% take under, but to also extend liquidity via swap lines.

The Bank of Canada, the Bank of England, the Bank of Japan, the European Central Bank, the Federal Reserve, and the Swiss National Bank are today announcing a coordinated action to enhance the provision of liquidity via the standing U.S. dollar liquidity swap line arrangements.

These daily operations will commence on Monday, March 20, 2023, and will continue at least through the end of April.

On the other hand, the war still wages and China moves closer and closer to Russia and America the spiteful moves closer and closer to thinking an all out war with Russia is a good idea.

NASDAQ FUTS are +80 because muscle memory.

On the bear side, keep an eye on UBS CDS. They spiked hard after the deal for CS was announced. Should they continue lower, we’ll crash.
