A very difficult environment for small banks under 30 branches.
Small conservative banks who are well managed, don't have a bunch of cash in long term T bills. That's a problem for bigger banks who took treasuries for 10 years at 1-2%. If marked to market, these banks are underwater. These T bills are infungible except at a real serious loss.

Says two things. Some people don't manage their money well and some people seem compelled to over-spend for Christmas. Set a realistic budget for Christmas and stick to it. I don't buy Christmas on credit. Never have. Never will. I'd rather make you some good homemade cookies (yes, I can cook) or buy a 5# bag of cracked pecans... everyone loves 'em...kids included.

I think a lot of businesses tried to take a "woke-vantage" and cash-in on the trend. It backfired for Joe too on the White House lawn.....
 
Elon has given them corporate advertisers the middle finger. Ya he said something that he shouldn't have and apologized.
