Very much depends. For raw prize money a spot in the Champion’s League is best, but the UEFA Coefficient -which is used to decide how many teams each country can send to each of the three leagues- doesn’t differentiate the leagues. You gain as many points for a win in the CL as you would for a win in the ECL.

What type of chart is it? Never seen one before, but looks great.

What would this waveform sound like if you fed it through a DAC?

I think it might be a bit like phase transitions in supercooled fluids, for example. You drop the temperature slow enough (in this particular case it's interest rates going up instead of temperature going down) that the water ends up in this very precarious equilibrium. The tiniest disturbance or impurity initiates a phase transition to ice, and that spreads across the entire liquid.

The best charts always have no y axis!

Its been interesting seeing all the different ways of visualizing the back failures.

Winning comment

It completely makes sense. Outside of fraud or gross incompetence bank regulations should ensure banks remain solvent. Only when the economy is rocked dramatically will a bank fall and those factors will effect all the banks at the same time.

Also serves as a handy chart of the life cycle of Glass-Steagall.

Yes and no.

The waves correspond IMO to the weakening of Glass-Staegall for sure.

But Republican Presidents aren’t necessarily the chief culprits. DIDMCA was signed by Carter and Glass-Steagall was repealed by Clinton. Reagan and Bush did more than their fair share, but banking deregulation was definitely a bipartisan affair.

this would probably be better inflation adjusted

Do waves happen to match the deregulation of banks by republican presidents?

Omitted Newfoundland & Labrador (not a maritime province), and included 3 territories (not provinces).

What’s up with all the locked threads on Reddit lately?

I have no idea about economics or finance or whatever but I highly highly doubt bank failures are even anywhere near independent

Also if that was true, wouldn’t the distribution here be highly highly unlikely?

That’s just not true. We literally do bank contagion simulations and there’s a ton of research on this topic. Prevailing economic thinking is precisely the opposite of what you said.

The big failures haven't even started yet

It’s like millions of dollars cried out and we’re suddenly silenced.

But those are not all banks. If you said recessions then yes
