Billionaire investor Nelson Peltz says money flying out of banks is dangerous. Here's his idea for the Fed that he says will stop more bank runs

 "A "very dangerous situation" has been building with customers yanking money from smaller banks and pushing it into just a few of country's largest banks, co-founding partner of Trian Fund Management, (Nelson Peltz), told CNBC on Monday

He appeared after a bank run at SVB, a key lender to tech startups, earlier this month triggered deposit outflows at other regional banks.

Peltz said the deposit insurance program should be expanded by having customers at all banks pay insurance premiums to the Federal Reserve only if they want their accounts covered beyond the FDIC's typical insurance limit of $250,000. "

"After SVB collapsed, the FDIC, the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve protected all accounts that spilled over the $250,000 insurance limit. Roughly 89% of SVB's $175 billion in deposits were uninsured at the end of last year. "

TAMING INFLATION WHILE BEATING THE ECONOMY RESULT IN BANKING CRISIS , PREDICTION OF A SEVERE RECESSION IN 2023

" Around this time last year, Nouriel Roubini, the famed economist who has earned the sobriquet  Dr. Doom  on Wall Street for his gloomy outlook on markets, warned that it would be “ mission impossible ” for the U.S. to avoid a severe recession in 2023." " The comments mark a big shift in tone from Roubini, who in July 2022 said that his peers predicting a short and shallow recession at the time were “ totally delusional .” But a lot has changed since last July. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has managed to cool inflation to from its 9.1% pandemic-era high to just 3.7%, all while maintaining U.S. GDP growth; supply chains, which were thrown into chaos during the pandemic, have mostly  healed ; and despite a short-lived regional banking  crisis  in March, the S&P 500 is up over 16% year to date."

IMEC. LACKS LOGICAL JUSTIFICATION.

 "Critics argue that India’s new corridor lacks logical justification. India opting for a rail and shipping corridor when the existing and cheaper Suez Canal and maritime routes are available does not make sense . Secondly, building railways through desert terrain requires elevated tracks with deep support to withstand shifting sands and hard bedrock. The political landscape in the US adds another layer of uncertainty, as opposition to investment in this corridor could increase if the Biden administration loses power. The Republicans, on the other hand, would oppose putting money into a failing project just like they did not want to put money into the Ukraine war. On the other hand, the US and India have previously announced initiatives like the Chabahar Corridor, the International North-South Corridor and the US Blue Dot Network, but the status of these projects remains uncertain." "...Moreover, IMEC passes through Jordan and Israel, introducing complex geopolitical ch
