Wow - there’s some really ominous data here. So a bank liquidity crisis is shaping up, probably so massive that the federal government will have to again step in and reimburse lost deposits by the trillions. Looking at the long game of chess moves here, do you see hyperinflation developing, followed by collapse into a Great Depression and serious deflation? Or is there a more optimistic outcome likely?
