Having seized the SVB on March 10, US regulators proceeded to close the New York-based Signature Bank two days later, raising concerns about what these bank failures might entail for the United States’ banking system as a whole.
Sergio Rossi, professor of macroeconomics and monetary economics at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, told Sputnik that the ensuing situation actually has certain similarities with the 2008 financial crisis.

Massive Iceberg Off Argentina’s Coast Could Pose Risk to British Industry, Reports Say
An iceberg over 3,000 square kilometers in size could potentially pose a risk to British interests off the coast of South America including shipping and fishing, as well as wildlife there, a new report claims.
After it broke away from Antarctica’s Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in May 2021, iceberg A76 eventually split into three pieces which are now known as A76-a, A76-b, and A76-c. Now scientists fear that the biggest of those, A76-a, could get caught on a shallow bank between disputed islands near Argentina’s shores.
