collapse last week sent tingles of panic down investors’ spines as it highlighted a larger problem across the banking sector: The widening gap between the value large lenders place on the bonds they hold and what they’re actually worth on the market.
was tied, in part, to the plunge in the value of bonds it acquired during boom times, when it had a lot of customer deposits coming in and needed somewhere to park the cash.
But SVB isn’t the only institution with that issue. US banks were sitting on $620 billion in unrealized losses (assets that have decreased in price but haven’t been sold yet) at the end of 2022, .

It depend on degree of integration in industrials and dependency. The most was in Automobile industry but percentage sale wise it was too small. Russia easily shifted workers around to even higher income aviation industry hardly any protest or unemployment. suppose if aviation engine production is running on 8 hour single shift normally and you transform into 24hr three shifts than you need electric/water supply to run it 24/7 reliably in that geographical location. this show the reliability and redundancy in infrastructure. similarly is to make sure more space in the plant for more workers. that Aviastar SP plant is supposed to have size of 1000 hectares or 40,000 acres depend on what is included.
