US banking system outlook downgraded to 'negative' following recent bank failures

cointelegraph.com:

Credit rating agency Moody's, has recently downgraded its outlook on the entire US banking system from "stable" to "negative." The move comes in light of recent bank failures of Silicon Valley Bank, Silvergate Bank, and Signature Bank, which has prompted regulators to intervene with a rescue plan for impacted depositors and institutions. 

Despite the downgrade, bank stocks rallied strongly, with the SPDR Bank exchange-traded fund rising nearly 6.5% in morning trade, NBC News reported. Moodys reportedly noted that an extended period of low rates combined with pandemic-related fiscal and monetary stimulus have complicated bank operations. Banks with substantial unrealized securities losses and non-retail and uninsured US depositors may still be at risk, according to Moody’s.

Moody’s expects the US economy to fall into recession later this year, further pressuring the financial industry. Given the recent downgrade by Moody's, it is clear that traditional banking systems are struggling to cope with the demands and challenges of our world today. As interest rates rise and the economy enters a recession, it is likely that more banks could potentially fail, leaving more depositors vulnerable.

Some crypto enthusiasts believe that cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, was created for a time like this, as its birth was inspired by the 2008 financial crisis.  In response to the brewing financial crises and bank collapses, Bitcoin's price surged to its highest level since June 2022, breaking the $26,000 mark.
