That's a cynical, conspiratorial, and woefully uninformed take on this.
On the most basic level, what you're suggesting doesn't make sense: "getting ready for a bailout" doesn't imply any real action any government would take.
If anything, being warned about financial instability will lead to an increase in requirements for banks: capital requirements might increase, M&A might become harder, etc.
But those are the sort of changes banks would tend to hate, because they necessarily reduce their opportunities to make money.
So I believe you're reacting to seeing "McKinsey", and it triggers you into running your conspiracy-themed sentence-generation Markov chain. In the process, it reveals that "government" and "finance" figure large as sinister agents in your belief system.
- roenxi 7y agoThe conversation around bank bailouts involves more money than the wealth of entire countries flowing through the financial system like a leviathan; so deep that we paddlers in the oceans of finance barely see the shadow. It is an excellent time to be cynical; and a great time to recognise that if anyone were ever to be tempted to conspiracy this is the sort of value that would tempt them. The woefully uninformed I'm not going to quibble on because agree with you on that point.
- anm89 7y agoI love this idea of words which have negative(or positive) connotations in someones belief systems triggering theme based sentence generation via markov chains. I feel like this is a bizarrely insightful take on how people actually think and respond to things.
