Venture capitalist and former tech CEO David Sacks called for the federal government to push another bank to buy SVB's assets, writing on Twitter, "Where is Powell? Where is Yellen? Stop this crisis NOW. Announce that all depositors will be safe. Place SVB with a Top 4 bank. Do this before Monday open or there will be contagion and the crisis will spread." VC Mark Suster agreed, tweeting, "I suspect this is what they're working on. I expect statements by Sunday. We'll see. I sure hope so or Monday will be brutal." Benchmark partner Eric Vishria wrote, "If SVB depositors aren't made whole, then corporate boards will have to insist their companies use two or more of the BIG four banks exclusively. Which will crush smaller banks. AND make the too big to fail problem way worse."
