  • What JPMorgan’s purchase of First Republic means for the economy

    What JPMorgan’s purchase of First Republic means for the economy

    [ad_1]

    “The seizure and subsidized on-sale of First Republic completes the obvious unfinished business from the initial acute phase of the bank stress,” Krishna Guha, vice chairman at advisory and investment firm Evercore ISI, wrote in a note to clients. “But we think this is only the very early stages of the chronic phase.”

    Let’s break down what you need to know.

    How are First Republic’s troubles connected to what happened to the other lenders in March?

    The three regional lenders — SVB, Signature and First Republic — suffered from similar issues. Each catered to companies and wealthy individuals whose balances far exceeded the $250,000 deposit insurance limit, which meant a huge majority of those funds weren’t backed by the FDIC. That made their customers unusually panicky when questions about the banks’ solvency cropped up. And the three lenders all failed to prepare for rising interest rates, which made a large chunk of their government bonds and other assets plunge in value.

    First Republic experienced a run at the same time as the other two, but it was able to limp along longer because a slew of big banks — including JPMorgan — collectively deposited $30 billion there in an effort to stem the panic. That obviously didn’t succeed at saving the bank, but it did give officials a lot more time to figure out how to handle the foundering lender, which essentially became a zombie bank — meaning it was basically insolvent but being propped up by others — until it was seized and then sold by the FDIC.

    Did the government back uninsured deposits at First Republic?

    No, deposits at First Republic will now simply become deposits at Chase Bank. This was a good outcome for the FDIC, which didn’t want a replay of March, in which they and other government officials agreed to invoke a special legal provision allowing them to back uninsured deposits at SVB and Signature. They took that step for the two banks because they worried that if they didn’t, uninsured depositors at other banks would also run, sparking needless panic across the system. In the wake of that move, there’s been some question about whether the government would be willing to do the same thing for other failed banks.

    Selling First Republic sidesteps that problem. This result is especially welcome for the government politically because by the time it failed, a large number of the uninsured deposits at First Republic were simply money that had been poured in by big banks. Backing those deposits would have been a bad look to the public. But failing to do so would’ve signaled that the government wouldn’t necessarily stand behind any deposits at failing banks — jeopardizing a convenient ambiguity that has helped stabilize the system, at least for now.

    Still, the FDIC expects to take a $13 billion loss to its deposit insurance fund, financed by fees from banks. That’s because it’s sharing some of the losses from First Republic’s portfolio of residential mortgages and commercial loans.

    Are more banks going to fail?

    It’s very possible, but there are no obvious candidates teetering the way First Republic has been. And all three of those failed banks shared clear links: lots of runnable deposits and huge unrealized losses on their books.

    Financial regulators are keeping an eye out for other risks that accompany higher borrowing costs, such as the potential for losses on commercial real estate, which has been in a period of sustained uncertainty in the wake of the pandemic as large numbers of workers no longer use office space.

    No doubt other financial firms will experience trouble as interest rates stay high and growth slows. Some might not be banks; government officials worry in particular about nonbank companies such as asset managers and insurers that are less regulated but still interconnected with the banking system.

    In the meantime, what will matter for the economy is to what extent the stress in the banking system leads lenders to pull back on extending credit, which could slow growth as much as would any further interest rate hikes.

    So wait, isn’t JPMorgan Chase already huge? Now it’s going to get bigger?

    This will definitely be a political talking point as Washington looks over the details of the sale. On the one hand, the FDIC selling an insolvent bank to another bank, and sharing in the losses, is generally how bank failures play out. But a lot of Democrats won’t love that a bank they consider “too big to fail” is now getting even bigger. Indeed, JPMorgan normally is barred from buying other banks because it controls more than 10 percent of the deposits in the country. But that cap doesn’t apply when the bank being bought is insolvent.

    To put things in perspective, First Republic had about $229 billion in assets, the second-largest bank failure in history, behind only Washington Mutual. JPMorgan has more than $3.7 trillion in assets. (One side note: Washington Mutual was also bought by JPMorgan after its collapse in 2008.)

  • What last night’s abortion pill twist means for access — even in blue states

    What last night’s abortion pill twist means for access — even in blue states

    [ad_1]

    Unless the Supreme Court intervenes, the 5th Circuit’s decision means that starting Saturday, mifepristone will remain legal at the federal level but access will be much more restricted.

    Mifepristone, one of two drugs commonly used together to cause an abortion, was approved 23 years ago by the FDA for use in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy and recently became the most common method of abortion in the United States.

    The 5th Circuit did not go as far as U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, whose ruling last Friday would have effectively removed the pill from shelves nationwide, but it did significantly roll back much of the FDA’s recent efforts to expand access.

    The court decision cuts off — at least temporarily — many of the pathways patients have used to obtain the pill in the last few years, including telemedicine prescriptions and mail delivery, and moves the cutoff for prescriptions from the current 10 weeks of pregnancy to seven.

    Should the ruling stand, retail pharmacies will no longer be authorized to dispense the drug. Physicians will not be able to prescribe the drug via telemedicine; instead, patients will have to make multiple in-person office visits to get a prescription. Additionally, non-physicians will not be able to prescribe or administer the drug, and prescribers will have to resume reporting “non-fatal adverse events” related to mifepristone to the federal government. The decision also suspends FDA approval of the company GenBioPro’s generic version of mifepristone, another blow to access.

    Isn’t there another abortion pill?

    Yes, misoprostol. The two pills are usually taken together to end a pregnancy during the first 10 weeks. Numerous studies have found both pills to be safe and effective.

    The new restrictions set to take effect don’t apply to misoprostol, because it is subject to fewer FDA regulations as the medication is primarily prescribed for non-abortion purposes, including treatment for stomach ulcers. Misoprostol can still be used on its own to end a pregnancy and abortion providers around the country say they’ve been preparing for months to pivot to offering misoprostol-only abortions if needed. However, there is a slightly higher risk of side effects and complications when the pills are used without mifepristone. States including California and New York announced this week that they’d be stockpiling misoprostol as a way to ensure access to an alternative method of abortion.

    What does the Biden administration do now?

    Attorney General Merrick Garland said Thursday that the Justice Department will seek emergency relief from the Supreme Court in order “to defend the FDA’s scientific judgment and protect Americans’ access to safe and effective reproductive care.” It would take five justices to put the 5th Circuit’s decision on hold and maintain the status quo while further appeals continue, although it’s possible Justice Samuel Alito — who oversees the 5th Circuit — could issue a temporary stay while the other justices weigh in.

    Can doctors use “off label” prescribing beyond seven weeks of pregnancy?

    Yes, but they may be reluctant to do so. The 5th Circuit’s decision rolled back an FDA policy that had expanded the use of mifepristone for use in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy rather than just the first seven weeks. Many doctors currently prescribe the drug beyond 10 weeks as an off-label use. Under the court decision, prescribing the drug after seven weeks would now be considered off-label. Some doctors may exercise that option, but there is likely to be a chilling effect from the court’s decision, with many doctors wary of running afoul of the court order during a time of legal uncertainty.

    What does this mean for people who live in states where abortion is illegal after six weeks?

    Most people do not know they are pregnant before six weeks. Abortion pills, which could be ordered online and delivered through the mail, had been seen as a way for people who live in states with six-week bans to terminate their pregnancies even after six weeks. Reining in the drug’s availability is likely to dramatically diminish its usefulness in these states.

    What about in blue states, where most abortions remain legal?

    The decision could also hamper access in blue states that have sought to maintain access to the pills, making them harder to access both for their own residents and the wave of people traveling from red states to terminate a pregnancy.

    Jennifer Dalven, the director of the ACLU’s Reproductive Freedom Project, argued to reporters Thursday that a competing district court ruling out of Washington state ordering the FDA to maintain the status quo should mean that nothing changes in the 17 states and Washington, D.C., where attorneys general sued the FDA — but without clear direction from judges and administration officials the legal status in those states remains uncertain.

    “In some places, FDA is under an obligation, a court order, not to further restrict access to abortion,” she said. “But it is completely unclear right now exactly how this will play out. We really need guidance both from the Supreme Court and potentially, ultimately the FDA.”

    Even if those 17 states and D.C. are shielded from the impact of the ruling for now, several of the country’s biggest states, including New York and California, are not part of the case and thus could be hit with the new restrictions ordered by the 5th Circuit.

    What will the anti-abortion challengers do?

    Alliance Defending Freedom, which represents the anti-abortion medical groups seeking to block access to mifepristone, told reporters on a call Thursday that it has “no immediate plans” to appeal the 5th Circuit’s decision even though the panel did not give anti-abortion groups the total suspension of the pills’ approval the groups requested and won from Kacsmaryk last week.

    “For now, we’ve got a great victory in the fact that there are now three required doctor visits to make sure women are safe, and the FDA complies with the rule of law,” said Erin Hawley, ADF’s senior counsel in the case. Hawley added, however, that the plaintiffs will continue pushing to have the FDA’s original approval of mifepristone overturned.

    “We anticipate that we might be able to persuade the 5th Circuit on a fuller briefing that the 2000 ruling is in play,” she said, noting that the appeals court did not take issue with the core of their arguments that the FDA approved the pills without adequately studying their safety risks and only took issue with the timeliness of the challenge to a decision the agency made 23 years ago.

  • ‘Not if, but when’: Mass shootings change what it means to be a mayor in America

    ‘Not if, but when’: Mass shootings change what it means to be a mayor in America

    [ad_1]

    fifty nieves gunsmayors lead

    Jose Sanchez took over as mayor just four days after the Lunar New Year shooting that killed 11 people and injured nine. The Monterey Park City Council member and longtime civics teacher had spent years studying firearm laws, helping his class of high school seniors craft gun-safety legislation that reached the House floor. He thought he knew what to expect.

    Nothing could have prepared him.

    He was running on two to three hours of sleep a night as he juggled the demands of teaching with the tragedy’s aftermath. Meetings with state and federal government officials. Vigils and community events. Round-the-clock emails from residents worried about safety.

    The father of three small children, he started bringing his oldest child to the office so they could spend more time together. Her sixth birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese, which had been set for the day after the shooting, was canceled.

    Two days after a gunman opened fire in a ballroom dance studio, Sanchez was back in his classroom at Alhambra High School, trying to talk with his students about what had happened without breaking down.

    “I remember at the end of that period, a student patted me on the shoulder and asked if I was OK,” he said. “It’s not that often that my students ask me how I’m doing.”

    Sanchez, a Democrat, had thought about the probability of a shooting while running his first campaign for elected office. He remembers telling his wife he would make sure Monterey Park was prepared.

    The city, a majority Asian American suburb outside of Los Angeles that for decades attracted immigrants with the promise of good schools and single-family homes, had largely been spared from the proliferation of shootings across the nation.

    His wife warned him that he was thinking about gun safety too much, and he wondered if she was right. That issue had consumed him since 2016, when he and a group of students visiting UCLA barricaded themselves in a women’s restroom after a professor was shot and killed.

    “I wish I didn’t have to think about this issue,” Sanchez said. “And now that it has happened, it makes you think, how could we have been better prepared? What can we do now to prevent another one?”

  • CEC says ‘vacuum’ in J-K, what it means beyond gap between last elections and now?

    CEC says ‘vacuum’ in J-K, what it means beyond gap between last elections and now?

    [ad_1]

    Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar made a significant comment about the Assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir. He observed: “There is vacuum that needs to be filled,” and it immediately got translated into the widening duration between the elections held last in J&K,  and now. Technically, this vacuum is about time. There, however, are larger issues involved, which this vacuum phrase invokes.

    The last assembly polls in J&K, when it was  special status state under Article 370, were held in November-December 2014. By that count, it is almost nine years between then and now. In practical terms, it’s since June 19, 2018, there has been no Assembly, first, it was kept in suspended animation, and then dissolved on November 21, 2018, in the most mysterious circumstances when a supposedly dysfunctional fax machine at Raj Bhawan, Jammu became the cause of not entertaining a plea by three parties- PDP, National Conference, and Congress, and few independents to form the government.  Even if that controversial act of the then Governor Satya Pal Malik is to be condoned, the elections to the Assembly should have been held within the stipulated period of six months from the date of dissolution- that is by May 2019. Ironically, the parliamentary polls were held in April-May, 2019. It, in itself, dismissed the thesis that the elections were not possible because of the poor security situation. This logic remains beyond comprehension.

    Again even if the argument is entertained that there are different sets of security covers needed for the parliamentary and  Assembly polls, as the election of MLAs invokes intense electioneering and campaigning in wider areas than the Lok Sabha polls, even then some sort of date should have been announced. Prior to the abrogation of Article 370 and the split of the state into two union territories, the Election Commission of India had declared that it would take the call after the conclusion of the Amarnath Yatra. The pilgrimage to the cave shrine in the Himalayas in Kashmir, devoted to Lord Shiva at the height of 13,500 feet above sea level, however, was canceled on  August 2, 2019, apparently, because it was under immediate threat of terror attacks. So that schedule got canceled with that only.  As the whole landscape of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir changed on August 5, 2019, along with its political history and future outlook, the elections were not possible owing to security reasons, and also that there were apprehensions of noisy and violent street protests – holding of the polls that time would have been hara-kiri. Moreover, all the political leaders of the regional parties were put behind bars,- some under house arrest, others in detention elsewhere, and hundreds of others, stone throwers, and miscreants were also sent to jails. The issues got changed overnight from elections to Article 370 and the dismantling of the state into two union territories. In a  place where the internet remained shut for almost one year, the elections were unthinkable.

    MS Education Academy

    There was rhetoric to show that doing away with Article 370 has brought changes that marginalized sections in society. There also was simmering against the move. There were several parties and sections of society who did not see the move as just a constitutional measure, depriving J&K of its special status and constitutional guarantees, but as something aimed at marginalizing their identity, culture, and demography.

    In the hindsight, it’s clear now that the constitution of the Delimitation Commission in  March  2020, was a move to gain time to test the ground for the political outcome. It was not without a reason that the Jammu region, perceived to be BJP bastion, got an increase of six seats from 37 to 43, while  Kashmir, having more population, got just one more seat – 46 to 47. The Delimitation Commission report came out in  May 2022- a delay of  14 months due to the Covid pandemic.  After the Commission’s report, a summary revision of electoral rolls was ordered and it was completed in November 2022. That should have brought the elections into sight, but, in reality nowhere to be seen.

    This vacuum runs against the spirit of democracy. The elected representatives in the Assembly form core of the democracy. If the people feel unrepresented, then the vacuum assumes greater and serious dimensions than merely the gap between the last elections and now.

    Playbook Deep Dive: What Trump’s indictment means

    [ad_1]

    trump audio5

    Well, I mean, in terms of the characters, yes, you’re right that this is all sort of a throwback to 2016-2018 period.

    But, you know, one of the people who’s testified twice, I believe, in front of this grand jury and who is central to this whole episode and who I believe has never spoken publicly about it is David Pecker. And so if there’s any chance that he ends up testifying at a trial or ends up speaking about his side of the story, I would be very intrigued to hear that.

    As you know, as someone who, you know, he was extremely close to Donald Trump and that’s how he got involved in this hush money payment to begin with. That’s someone I would really like to hear from at some point if there’s an opportunity to do that.

    But in terms of the sort of the legal questions that are going to come up here, there’s quite a number. But I think the biggest one is, you know, I mentioned that the indictment is sealed. We don’t know what the counts are yet, but there’s a lot of questions about how the district attorney, Alvin Bragg, constructed these charges and whether they will survive in court, because if they are what we think they’re going to be, they’re a largely untested legal theory.

    And Trump’s lawyers, of course, will try their hardest to fight them and given that they’re untested, there’s just a lot of questions about how they’ll survive. So that’s probably the biggest issue here. But then, of course, we will run into all sorts of questions about the sort of scheduling of legal proceedings and a potential trial for someone who is a presidential candidate. And that is likely to be very, very complicated. So.

    Means to divert attention: BRS party supremo KCR condemns Sisodia’s arrest

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) supremo and state chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) has condemned the arrest of Delhi deputy chief minister and AAP leader Manish Sisodia in the alleged liquor policy scam case.

    The BRS party released a statement from its official Twitter page saying, “We condemn the arrest of Delhi Dy CM Sri Manish Sisodia by CBI. It is nothing more than diverting people’s attention from Adani – Modi nexus. – CM Sri KCR”

    Earlier in the day, BRS working president and IT minister K T Rama Rao (KTR) termed Sisodia’s arrest as undemocratic and alleged that the BJP’s treatment of opposition is vicious.

    KTR said that Sisodia’s arrest is part of a conspiracy to use central government agencies to weaken the parties in the states and in regions where the BJP cannot come to power.

    Terming Sisodia’s arrest as the height of the BJP’s vendetta politics, he said that Sisodia was arrested after BJP suffered defeat in the Delhi mayoral election.

    Delhi court on Monday ordered Sisodia to a five-day CBI custody after the latter said the conspiracy was hatched in a very deliberate and covert manner.

    Sisodia’s lawyer opposed the agency’s remand application, arguing, “If someone is not willing to say something, that can’t be a ground for arrest”.

  • Making dinner means dicing with danger, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take

    Making dinner means dicing with danger, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take

    [ad_1]

    There were a few seconds, immediately after the blade sliced deep into the tip of my left index finger and shortly before the blood began to gush, when I merely watched. There always seems to be a moment like this following an injury in the kitchen; a stillness, before the crisis management kicks in, when we are lost in bafflement at our clumsiness or stupidity or just plain bad luck.

    In this case, it was a mixture of all three. My knife skills do not deserve the name. I am a home cook, not a trained chef, and I haven’t quite mastered the business of folding my finger tips under while resting my knuckles against the blade. I was shredding spring onions. I was distracted. Now I was injured.

    The wound took a month to heal. Now I have a crescent-shaped scar at the tip. It gets to join all the other scars. There is the long, slug-shaped pale mark on my right wrist where it fried against the top edge of a very hot oven as I reached in with a spatula.

    We assume these things fade with time, but I’m now made of older skin and bone; that one will be with me for life. There are the polka dots of multiple small burns on the ball of my left hand, caused by reaching in to get the oven tray. Now there is this new one.

    Anyone who cooks regularly has these marks. I am not proud of them. I would be very happy if none of these minor accidents had occurred; if I were unscarred. No one should make light of potential disfigurement.

    Happily, though, they are minor enough that I can now be curiously fond of them. They are my life in the kitchen, written on the body, the physical marks of someone who has diced vegetables and chopped onions, fretted over stock pots and poked at roasts, tasted sauces, deep fried and charred and blitzed.

    The fact is that cookery is not risk free. It involves fire and knives. While the possibility of injury may decrease with experience, the likelihood of it happening increases because of repetition.

    Behold the professionals. My friend Jeremy Lee, revered chef at Quo Vadis, has been cooking all day, almost every working day, for more than 30 years. “The marks really come out in the sun,” he says. “My forearms make me look like a zebra. And you look at them and go, ah, there you are.”

    The great Manchester chef Mary-Ellen McTague says her attitude to minor injuries has changed over the years. “Once, they were a badge of honour,” she says. “If your finger was hanging off and you were still cooking, it was weirdly heroic. Now, I’d rather just be safe. But I do feel an affection for my scars.”

    Clearly accidents happen. Such is life. There is, however, one risk in the kitchen that every cook I’ve ever discussed it with winces at the thought of: the mandolin. “Watching someone slicing on a mandolin makes me very nervous,” McTague says. “I don’t know a cook who hasn’t lost a fingertip to one of those.”

    Lee understands why it happens. “Maybe you can’t find the guard,” he says. “So you go for it. And then we kick ourselves for just being silly sods and too gung ho.”

    That’s how it works. We plan to make something nice to eat. Then the hand slips. The blade does its worst. And we know, for certain, that the mark of our highly developed appetites will be with us for a long time to come.

  • If big people are scared of me, it means I am at par with PM Modi: Manish Sisodia

    If big people are scared of me, it means I am at par with PM Modi: Manish Sisodia

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: If “big people” are scared of him, it means he is now at par with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said on Thursday, his first remarks on allegations of “political intelligence” gathering by the AAP government’s Feedback Unit.

    The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has claimed that the Feedback Unit (FBU) set up by the Delhi government to check corruption allegedly collected “political intelligence”, a charge denied by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

    Based on its preliminary inquiry, the agency in a report has recommended that an FIR be registered against Sisodia.

    “The BJP has brought in new allegations against me that since 2015, I have been involved in snooping on them. If such big people, whose existence is dependent on using CBI, ED and Pegasus to conspire against opposition leaders, and if they are scared of me, it seems that I have also become equal to Modi,” Sisodia said in a tweet in Hindi.

    His party has claimed that the BJP’s allegation that he was involved in “political snooping” is “completely false”. The arvind Kejriwal government has also said the matter is “politically motivated”.

    The CBI has claimed that the AAP government had proposed setting up of the FBU in 2015 to gather information and actionable feedback regarding the working of various departments and autonomous bodies, institutions and entities falling under the jurisdiction of the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD).

    It further alleged that it was also to do “trap cases”. The unit started functioning in 2016 with a provision of Rs 1 crore for secret service expenditure, the agency has claimed.

    The CBI has alleged that Chief Minister Kejriwal moved the proposal in a Cabinet meeting in 2015, but no agenda note was circulated. No sanction from the lieutenant governor was taken for appointments in the FBU, it has alleged.

    “The Feedback Unit, in addition to collecting the mandated information, also collected political intelligence/intelligence qua miscellaneous issues,” the CBI has said in its preliminary inquiry report.

    The CBI took up the inquiry on a reference from the Delhi government’s Vigilance Department that had detected alleged irregularities in the FBU. Prima facie, the agency has noted, there was deliberate violation of rules, guidelines and circulars by “delinquent public servants”.

    “The nature of violations committed is inherently dishonest and as such materials disclose abuse of official position with dishonest intention by concerned public servants Manish Sisodia, Deputy CM, and Sukesh Kumar Jain, the then secretary (vigilance),” it has been alleged in the report.

    According to the CBI, 60 per cent of the reports generated by the FBU pertained to vigilance and corruption matters, while “political intelligence” and other issues accounted for around 40 per cent.
