I’ve been off line for Rosh Hashana, so this is a day late.
And the FDIC is back in action, albeit in a low key way, with only 1 bank closure:
- Horizon Bank , Bradenton, FL
I am not sure why a small suburb in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area has had 4 banks fail in the past 4 years, see the Full FDIC list, but only one bank failure is a slow day.
Also, here is the Full NCUA list of credit union closings.
So, here is the graph pr0n with trendline (FDIC only):
I would note that are now at the point where the utility of the least squares trendline is diminishing, but I’m keeping it here for historical purposes.
Actually, it may have more use. There seems to be a pattern of a lull, and then an outbreak, so Yom Kippur, next Friday, may be a bad day for banks.
