I wish I had enough understanding of the guts of the financial system to parse articles like this. The news seems meaningful — but what does it actually mean?

TIL that major US banks silently got billions in bailouts over the last few months, AND a self-imposed short squeeze by JP Morgan, which > is on the hook to deliver more than 5,900 tons of silver it doesn’t have. Tradeable silver is relatively scarce right now, government data shows. and > A big problem [ed: for JP Morgan] is that there’s not enough actual silver available for trading to get JP Morgan out of the squeeze it got into through unbridled greed. The more silver prices rise the more JP Morgan gets hurt. yup sure sounds like the US economic pieces are doing just fine right now! :sarcasm: https://www.dcreport.org/2025/12/29/ny-fed-unlimited-cash-infusions-bank-crisis/ #politics #bank #banking #JPMorgan #ShortSqueeze #short #shorts #investing #USPoli
