LCS is still in the zone
September 30 the nav was 3.35 and February 15th it was 6.40. Now it's dropped to $5 because of Donald Trump removing cash provisions rules. US regional banks got in trouble as a result and spread to Europe. Since a bank run means deposits are lost, we never even got that far. I think this bit has ended and LCS will resume its rise. Something harsh for lifecos the last 3 years has been their investment in reits and that has bottomed out now.

Almost "free money" by lowering interest rates to near 0 is the root of the problem !!!

Yes Biden should have reinstated regulations, but trump cut regulations willy nilly by the thousands. Once banks start going bankrupt, there is a contagion. Investors in Europe pulled money when US banks went. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/03/what-to-know-about-trump-era-bank-deregulation-and-bank-failures/

Yes and i suppose Standard and Poor, Fitch , and Moody's agencies are all out to lunch too. They ALL downgraded the entire US banking system. The only truth comes from the Mainstream media other than FOX ? I have a hard time swallowing that.

SOME GUY? Are your referring to the Moody's call to the CEO saying Moody's were downgrading their bonds assets to junk status, becaue they had lost Billions in value? The same day the CEO sold 3.5 million shares of SVB?

Sorry Mr.Ed. don't think you need Trump to sink the US. Joe Biden and our clown leader Trudeau are doing a fine job on sinking both countries if you ask me.
