In a bid to restore confidence in the U.S. banking system, the government has launched emergency measures following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) - the largest bank failure since the 2008 financial crisis. The U.S. tech industry had been pressuring the government to take swift action to address the situation.
The fallout from SVB's collapse has sparked investor concerns about the banking sector, resulting in a sharp decline in European bank stocks, with Credit Suisse plunging by as much as 30 percent.
Federal Prosecutors Probe Money Laundering Violations Involving Trump Media
Federal prosecutors in New York have been investigating Donald Trump's social media company, Trump Media, for possible money laundering violations since last year. According to insiders, the examination began after two loans totaling $8 million were wired to Trump Media via the Caribbean from two obscure entities suspected of having Russian ties.
