Those ratios are a great way to get a first overview of a business. Then, one can dig in on the ones that stand out and figure out why.

Brian Feroldi the most important thing in the banking industry right now is liquidity and it’s something that hasn’t been this important since the great depressionLiquidity for banks is the accessibility to deposits, and deposits are priced at an all-time high due to the recent fed rate hikesIt’s also the primary reason for the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, as well as First RepublicBecause when all the depositors take out their money, the bank becomes ill-liquid and has it to be dissolved Friday fun facts 😀
