    Big banks fall on Wall Street after warnings of potential losses from a hedge fund's

    Big banks fall on Wall Street after warnings of potential losses from a hedge fund's-640x-1-jpg
    Credit


    Big banks have weighed on Wall Street after warnings of potential losses from a hedge fund's default on margin calls, although optimism about the US economy limited the falls.

    Key points:

    • US hedge fund Archegos Capital defaulted on its share trading loans
    • It caused Credit Suisse shares to plunge 14 per cent and Nomura to fall 16.3 per cent
    • Dow Jones up 0.3 per cent to 33,171, S&P 500 down 0.1 per cent to 3,971, Nasdaq 0.6 per cent to 13,060


    Japan's largest investment bank Nomura and Swiss banking giant Credit Suisse are facing billions of dollars in losses after US hedge fund Archegos Capital defaulted on margin calls, share market bets made with borrowed money, putting investors on edge about who else might have been caught out.

    Archegos is run by former Tiger Asia boss, Bill Hwang. Tiger Asia was a Hong Kong-based fund trading in Asian shares.
    In 2012, Mr Hwang and his firm paid $US44 million ($57 million) to settle US insider trading charges.
    Nomura shares fell 16.3 per cent, a record one day drop.

    ^Probably kicking himself

    Remember when it stated it liked trump/IQ45 (policies)/wanted him to win because of his future earnings/stocks?

    If Biden 'gets in... your 401(k)s will go to hell': Trump

    "If he gets in, you will have a depression the likes of which you've never seen. Your 401(k)s will go to hell, and it'll be a very very sad day for this country," Trump said.

    Well……………..

    Anyone can pump up the economy by borrowing money.

    The question is, do they ever intend to pay it back?

    Not rich? Good news: You’re probably getting a tax cut.

    Everyone knows that Democrats want to raise taxes on the rich, but what hasn’t gotten nearly as much notice is how much they’ve cut them for most everyone else — substantially more than Republicans did in the first year of their 2017 tax overhaul.

    New estimates by Congress’s official forecasters show Democrats’ tax cuts — included in their March stimulus package — will drive down tax rates on low- and middle-income people so much this year that those earning less than $75,000, on average, will owe nothing in federal income taxes.

    Those making between $75,000 and $100,000 will pay a scant 1.8 percent average tax rate this year, the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation predicts.

    That will shift the relative burden to the wealthy, at least temporarily, with those earning more than $500,000 expected to pay more than two-thirds of all income taxes this year.

    If your income is too low, you won't be compensated

    Partisan politics is truly pathetic on both sides. The US stock market has been trending upwards since the Federal reserve discovered the printing press in 2009. It went up under obama , up under trump and now up under Biden
    It has NOTHING to do with what any president did or did not do. The fed balance sheet went from 800 billion in 2009 to 4.2 trillion and more today.
