>b-but he said there'd be more rate hikes!!

It should not but this is not a properly functioning financial system we are dealing with here.
It's a house of cards built on zero interest rates, easy credit, and central bank liquidity.
Literally none of the banks have enough money on hand to cover even a fraction of customer deposits.
In 2020, the Fed lowered the reserve requirements but they haven't raised them back despite claiming that they want to fight inflation. I think the reason they haven't done so is because they know that if they do, they'll risk even more banks going under.
