Wow, two very bold claims here:
1. they will be made whole
2. in a few weeks
For 1. I think this is very unlikely to happen. Absolutely account holders will get some money back, but I would be pretty surprised if it was 100%. Regarding number 2. I would be even more shocked if anything more than the FDIC insured amount was returns within "a few weeks".
However you are claiming that there is "no meaningful" probability these will not both happen. Do you care to elaborate on this more because I have heard nobody with any experience in this space making claims like this?

- astrange 4y agoIf they sell SVB to another bank, it will probably guarantee 100% of it because the alternative makes all customers of small banks a lot more nervous about their accounts.
