SVB collapse, $1 purchase, Aramco profits, Banking expertise, Nissan Junk, RV decline, Airbus/Boeing

When Powell set out his tough tone at the semi-annual hearings last week he couldn't have foreseen the hotter than expected jobs numbers (again!) on Friday or the run on Silicon Valley Bank. The markets were already reeling but this further news saw a drop of c. 5% on the week.

So we have a lot to talk about this week. We cover the run on the Silicon Valley Bank (and who started it), the bailout in the US and $1 sale in the UK, banking expertise in general, Saudi Aramco mega profits, when is a hybrid not a hybrid, the plan to introduce a 69 hour working week, Nissan junk status, a Boeing/Airbus collaboration and much more.
