Memo to Yellen and Powell (why didn’t he waive the blackout period???): To stem a crisis like this, you find buyers, not depositors. First Republic needs a real capital injection. Stop the game of playing small-ball already and start taking this seriously.
Kevin Vickers retweeted
Lagarde must believe that making the same policy mistake Trichet did in the summer of '08 is a wise thing to do. If Powell thinks this is the right course at the next FOMC meeting, the only trade is into long bonds because the recession is going to come into even fuller view.

This is pretty appalling. The process is flawed - we don’t know the mandate or the powers of the role. But David Johnston deserves better than these as hominem attacks from people with less credibility than him.

IEA: “World oil supply should comfortably exceed demand in the first half of the year… Much of the supply overhang reflects ample Russian barrels racing to re-route to new destinations” — despite warnings it would buckle under international sanctions. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Indian refiners who are obtaining discounted Russian crude oil, rejected by the EU and other Western powers are filling this gap by using the same Russian barrels. Basically, Russian crude oil is reaching the EU markets via India.

“A recent report on green-technology incentives … provides an idea of how much it would cost to compete with U.S. incentives for two EV battery plants: roughly $40-billion."
How much is Canada willing to pay for a battery plant in the Great Subsidy War?

🐴 Meet Noble: a gift from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to The King.
The seven year-old mare - who stands at 16.2 hands high - is currently settling into life at The Royal Mews in Windsor.

Canada’s Royal Canadian Mounted Police were honoured to lead the State Funeral Procession for Queen Elizabeth II, The Queen of Canada, in 2022. Her Majesty loved horses so four horses Canada had gifted her, George, Elizabeth, Sir John & Darby led the way. 🐴🇨🇦

Putin's energy windfall is over. Russia's Feb 2022 c/a surplus was $20.2 bn. Feb 2023 surplus is +5.8 bn. We can squeeze Russia much more by lowering the G7 cap to $30. That'll cause Ruble devaluation and a financial crisis. Hard to fight a war when your economy is imploding...

Great to speak to @BNNBloomberg in Toronto today as I begin my #StPatricksDay programme to Canada and the USA.
Canadian companies employ about 8,500 people in Ireland with a similar number employed in Canada by Irish companies.

Ireland ☘️is a leading finance centre in Europe. It was enlightening to hear from Irish Finance Minister @mmcgrathtd at @ei_canada’s breakfast this morning.
Utilizing our strong bonds and learning from one another we can grow both Canada’s 🇨🇦 and Ireland’s 🇮🇪 economy.

After Russia invaded Ukraine, Greek shipping oligarchs shifted their oil tankers to help Russia. While others pulled back, they made money. Now they help Putin build his shadow fleet by selling him their ships, helping Russia avoid the G7 cap. EU must stop this. @JonathanPingle

In case you missed it last week, any single Canadian bank profit last year trumps that of the COMBINED Canadian grocers who are "gouging" Canadians.
@TD_Canada, $13.3B
@RBC, $12,0B
@BMO, $10.3B
@scotiabank, $10.1B
@cibc, $4.7B
Canadian grocers? $3.4B, combined.
