Looks like the smart thing for people to do is "RUN DON'T WALK TO YOUR BANK AND PULL IT OUT IN CASH. ALSO DON'T FORGET THEM ATM FEES SET TO SOAR.. GO TO A LOCAL SAVINGS AND LOANS HAVE YOUR MONEY TRANSFERRED TO THEM OR A LOCAL CREDIT UNION. IF YOU WAIT YOU WILL PAY DEARLY.. GET THEM FEET MOVING!!"
With the media fixated on the fiscal cliff, no one seems to
be noticing the fact that the FDIC’s expanded 100% coverage for insured
deposits ends January 1st, 2013.
Submitted by SD Contributor AGXIIK:
As of January 2013 the FDIC stops offering 100% coverage for all insured deposits. That amounts to $1.6 trillion in deposits, 85-90% deposited with the TBTF mega banks.
Once the insurance ramps back to $250,000 the FDIC risk amelioration
offered to large depositors will cause them to flee from the insecurity
of the much reduced FDIC coverage. This money will rotate
immediately into short term Treasury securities. The treasury, in order
to handle this flood of money, will immediately offer negative interest
rates. This financing will resemble the .5% negative interest
rate offered by the Swiss and Germans on the funds flooding to their
banks from Spain, Greece and Italy.
This will be a bank run much larger than the Euro banks flight to safety.
I have noticed two disturbing matters that will most certainly come as a result of the Fed MBS program.
1. The funds from the Fed purchases will rotate to the Too Big To Fail
Banks. This debt is already junk bond status due to the nature of the
underwater mortgages and delinquencies, hence the reason for the new Fed
goon Squad going after borrowers.
This debt will be as bad or worse than the debt of Greece, Spain and Italy, rated CCC-
2.
The banks receiving these funds will rotate the money immediately into
short term treasury securities that will be priced at NIRP. the reason
for that follows:
3. As of January 2013 the FDIC stops offering 100% coverage for all insured deposits.

4. The Social Security Trust
fund must make at least 5-6% return to maintain its balance and provide
income to the SS recipients. The TF is still guaranteed to go bankrupt
by 2033, 21 years from now. The TF is required by law to invest in
Treasury bonds. The actuarial problem now facing the TF is that they
will be rolling old bonds yielding 5.6% into a yield pool averaging
1.4%, a 75% drop in income. This dramatic yield drop coupled with a 60%
increase in SS recipients from 50 million to 91 million in the next 10
years will assure the TF will go bankrupt in about 10 years.
This
irreducible math is going to prove an insurmountable obstacle to those
who are recently retired, have long live genes or plan to retire in the
next 10 years. If the SS TF goes bankrupt then benefits will be cut by
25% . Inflation adjustments were never able to front run the lost in
income. The inflation rate of 8% today and 15% tomorrow will destroy the senior investment pool.
