US 2Y says #Fed must cut on Monday to avoid a sector wide bank run, now that market gets that large parts of the sector are basically insolvent (despite zippo credit risk) due to re-rating of their zero-risk (oh the irony) fixed income book in past 12 months.

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank highlighted the risks posed by "underwater" long duration bonds -- particularly when those bonds funded with short-term liabilities.

Who else in the global economy holds a lot of underwater bonds?

Asian insurers and policy banks ...

I don't think most banks are badly managed like this silicon valley bank.
The Twitter comments you linked to shed light on why this bank got in trouble.
Majority of banks are well capitalized.
