Social media has blown up with speculations that Credit Suisse is due for a Lehman Brothers-style collapse; is there any merit to those claims?

    I think it's an absolute meme that one of the chairmen of Credit Suisse has the last name Lehman.
  • Your channel is such a rarity in the economics/investment part of youtube because: - You don't tell people what to do. - You don't tell people what to believe. - You don't presume to know everything. And for this I thank you, because It feels that all ancient era street preachers got reincarnated into investment channel youtubers and crypto bros.
  • Financial scandals just won't be the same without Credit Suisse 😥

    That moment when he mentions regional banks are subject to less stringent regulations than major ones and can take more risk... ...yeah that part aged very well
  • I love how in the past ten months, whenever the guys over at r/WallStreetBets were going apeshit and I was like "what the hell is it now?", 'round about 72 hours later you came up with a video saying "so it's nowhere near as messed up as you hear online, but it's fascinating, here's what's happened". Absolute delight mate, keep it up!

    I thought the title was a typo, until I realised this was the algorithm blowing this up a year later! Credit Suisse still can't seem to keep their hands clean.

    I'd love to see an update to this. Thank you for the great info.

    Credit Suisse reminds me of the Hans Solo line "Uh, we had a slight ... malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you"?

    When are you actually going to start talking about bagels ?
  • A LOT of peeps waiting for this one to drop. Plz make things less crazy and more boring. You are the king at that! In a good way!
  • I think that these videos of your take on the finance and economics events are way better than any MBA or a master degree for people, especially for those who don't have a background in economics/finance like an engineers or doctors. I profoundly appreciate these videos and your time, in fact for each video I pull out a pen and paper I start to write the key points that you're talking about. Please keep up the good work.

    Thanks for explaining this in a way I could understand. I appreciate it! I am also grateful that you went into detail on the history of the bank without glossing over the trouble it has been known to have in the past.
  • @dacoolist
    Just wanted to commend to say how much I appreciate these videos! For someone like me to understand this stuff normally wouldnt be possible. Keep up the excellent quality!!

    "If you've heard of Credit Suisse before and live outside of Switzerland, it's probably been for mostly bad reasons." To be fair, I live in Switzerland and when I hear about CS, it's usually for the same bad reasons lol.
