“We have a technology problem regarding customers’ balance information,” Chase said in a statement.

This is the single worst corporate ass-covering this month.

I thought that normally the PR spiel is "we are currently working to fix the issue and expect your accounts to be back to normal by XX time" I didn't see any re-assuring PR stuff like that in the article paraphrased on that report.

Is this a coincidence or are they trying to create a run on banks??

A good article on the Cyprus situation. Gas and naval bases.

I don't think they have a clue what they're doing. They'll just keep throwing levers and turning knobs until it all stops working for everyone.

I just don't get it.  I can imagine even the TALK of doing this is causing bank withdrawals  throughout Europe.

It's the Wild West, no need for tin foil.

My take:
  • They're testing to see how fast the hype spreads.
  • And/or 'programming' people to expect more crap from their banks, so that next time when balances get reduced to zero, it'll be at least 3 hours (or around that) before anyone panics.


...


Why aren't there any Zerohedge articles on this? When it's a European bank, it's f*cking "news of the day"...
