It's well known that Trump Media stock trades at a premium valuation, but one chart shows just how absurd it is. AdvertisementA lot has been written about Trump Media and Technology Group's premium valuation, but one chart really helps put it into perspective. The social media company, founded by former President Donald Trump, has a market valuation of nearly $7 billion. Another way to value the profitless Trump Media is to compare its current market valuation to its monthly active user base. Since Trump Media's recent stock surge,that valuation has surged to $1,309 per Truth Social user, and at its peak in March, each Truth Social user was worth $1,794.

☆ More Americans can buy investments earmarked for the rich. Why doing so may be risky, say experts

Anyone can generally buy the stock of public companies on a stock exchange, or buy pools of stocks or bonds via publicly available mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. By comparison, private investments let people invest in companies that aren't listed on a public exchange. Julio Estela, 41, who lives in Wantagh, New York, made his largest private investment in 2021, in Green Coffee Company. Why private markets are 'two-tiered'Hxyume | E+ | Getty ImagesSome of the largest U.S. investors, such as pension funds, often have some exposure to private investments, proponents say. As with public stock, betting on one private investment instead of pooling risk in a fund of many private companies is an even riskier strategy, experts said.

☆ Silicon Valley's 'greed and avarice' have 'finally come home to roost' in SVB collapse, trader says
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-13 | by ( Natasha Turak | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

That news sent its stock price plunging and triggered a panic-induced wave of withdrawals from VCs and other depositors. Within a day, SVB stock had tanked 60% and led to a loss of more than $80 billion in bank shares globally. Some argue that the bank's downfall was due to its leaders' greed for yield: its holdings were disproportionately exposed to long-term interest rates, which are at a 15-year high in an effort to bring down inflation. The increased rates hit the value of SVB's securities, which subsequently damaged depositors' confidence. So, to me, it's the system that's broken, or at least needs to be seriously reviewed here."

☆ This one chart shows the uniqueness of Silicon Valley Bank and how it set itself up to fail

Silicon Valley Bank 's status as a key player for venture capital-backed companies in technology and related industries appears to have played a major role in its demise , according to J.P. Morgan Asset Management. The chart below shows how unique Silicon Valley really was...see it (Ticker: SIVB) in the lower right far away from the other regional banks: The concentrated mix of deposits appears to have contributed to a massive bank run . At banks with a higher percentage of retail depositors, there would be less motivation for those depositors to pull out there money even if the bank was in trouble. Federal regulators are exploring options, including a potential sale of SVB , to backstop the uninsured deposits to soothe these fears. The chart shows that there are other banks with low percentages of retail depositors or high levels of loans plus securities, but that Silicon Valley Back was unusually risky on both fronts.
