There was a small series of regional bank failures last year. Silicon Valley Bank arguably the most prominent of these failures.
The problems in the banking system have not been fixed and one could argue are even worse considering the higher interest rates, all the bad loans etc.. This whole system is a house of cards.
My favorite economic doomer on JewTube Jeremiah Babe did a video on this recent bank failure if you want more details.
