    1. Zombie institution is another term. “Cockroaches” was a term I believe Jamie Diamond invented recently to refer to some institutions that were only hanging in there because they are hiding in the dark.

  1. I had zero exposure to PE but I closed out the majority of my equity positions two weeks ago and moved into 3 month gov bonds. I’m 55 and I’ve been thru this “scenario” a few times and I do not have time to rebuild so I’m good w/ 3.7ish % on gov bonds for now. The big guys ALWAYS lie, say everything is fine, until the absolute last second. Then they ride off into the sunset w/ their salaries, golden parachutes, etc.

    1. Let’s just hope Trump and Bessent don’t decide to default on the Treasuries. I’m in the same boat. We’re definitely going into financial repression though, i.e., interest rates less than real inflation rates.

    2. I think these people should be put in jail and have their golden parachutes given to pay for homeless shelters and food for them, so if they’re not too old when they get out of jail, they get to see what it feels like to be on the losing end of their scams.

    3. I got out of all stocks 11-25. Glad I did. So much corruption. I may only get 3.35% on my HSA cash in a good bank, not even keeping up with inflation, but safe from the bank robbers

    4. Treasuries will be worthless as well and the fed prints trillions upon trillions to bail out the economy and these “too big to fail” companies.

    1. It’s true that Burkes of your Hathaway has a an unusually large percentage of assets held in cash but it’s about a third.
      Claiming that he’s escaped to cash is a typical sort of exaggerated overstatement you get on videos like this

    2. He also said never bet against America. I hedged from all exposure to the US marked in December.
      There will be a crash and my money aren’t going back on a low, the US is a cest pool of unsustainable greed.

  2. I stopped shorting the market a long time ago, because I stubbornly realized that all of the professions know the numbers are bullshit, but they don’t care.

  3. Now you know why Private Equity is all of a sudden marketing to retail investors. They want liquidity so they can cash out and leave retail holding the bag. Predictable and Despicable.

    1. Exactly, the poor ultra rich investors need to keep their wealth, a few retail investors get lucky and get out with a one time 25 % gain most retail investors will get -50% gain🍋🍋🍋

    1. They’re getting bailed INs this time. Enjoy your Wells Fargo stock in your old WF savings account.

    2. Is it even possible for 22T just for these few , it’s way more ? What would it look like ? The end ?

  4. And our corrupt F-ing government will not jail one banker for fraud even though the .gov will bail these evil idiots out again. Too big to fail? Not too big to jail the people running them.

    1. Maybe it is bad but one thing for sure is this video is nothing more than a commercial using fear tactics.

    2. Congress is the biggest fraud. They are all holders. They used our Social Security and pension funds to buy trillions in bonds that they never intended to pay back. They sold trillions in bonds to our allies with no ability to pay back.

    3. ​@jowite4170It is not a scare tactic. What happened is that we were LIED to in 2008 that we had solved the crash when we never DID. 20 years later, and the farce is up. The empire has collapsed. The US is toast.

    4. Idiots? Who is the greater idiot? The sheople that live a lie or the lie maker? No men, no women only sheople. Sheople only need grass to eat.

  5. Unbelievable?! Seriously?! For 50 years every “person of finance” has looked me right in my eye and lied to me.

    1. If you’ve been consistently giving money to liars for 50 years and losing maybe the problem is you.

  6. KKR are the ones that bought us, and ruined our company within a year. They couldn’t just buy the company and let it put up good numbers like it did before, could they? (that’s why they bought us, we were good)
    No wonder their books might look like trash. And guess what, they fired everyone! And they expected to hire new people, cheaper, but it didn’t work because of how many years it took to learn some of the stuff we did.
    Feels good to see them crash and burn!

    1. Managers have to come up with new ideas to justify their jobs. Unfortunately, the new ideas are usually bad ideas.

    2. Yep, it’s a story repeating everywhere I go. The purchase and enshitification of the good players in a sector by putting in a one trick pony MBA to gut the knowledge base of the companies that they acquired and replace them with the young apprentice trainees.
      I suspect that they think they will be able to capture the experience of the industry specialists and get AI to replace their decision making processes.

  7. Wait so they got bailed out by the government and are doing the exact same thing again? Why wouldn’t they? No consequences and it’s their business model. It seems like fraud is the norm now and nobody cares enough because all the people in power are doing it.

  8. they should all be sued, individually, for all of the fees, bonuses, salaries, stock options, etc. they pocketed and will walk with!

  9. Dont worry guys we’ll just vote our way out of this!!! It didnt work the last thousand times so maybe this time will work 😂

  10. They should take Fink and all those CEO personal money and give it to shareholders for compensation
