what would definitely trigger flight would be the fed just going lol and doing nothing, since it guarantees that anything above $250k is not safe, so you go to a bank where the world economy is hosed if it fails. I dunno why paying back depositors has the same effect if they do it by a "just this once, you silly goose" mechanism

Because it costs money to hedge anything past $250k. If you knew the FDIC was gonna be good for it -- but not good for anything above X indeterminate amount of money -- why bother keeping your money in a small bank and hedging against the excess of the FDIC insurance with a X% chance of going bust when you could just keep your money in a large bank that had 0.x% chance of going bust?

So

A. FDIC is unlimited insuring everyone regardless of deposit level, we are literally printing infinite money

B. This infinite insurance gets rolled back at some point, people go "Oh gently caress the government is in serious trouble" and we get a mass panic

no neither of those things

if people kept buying up Gamestop stocks to create a "short squeeze" against people who were shorting the stock

couldn't you, like, incite people to withdraw their money from banks to deliberately trigger bank runs to "squeeze" the Feds in a similar manner

EDIT: I see I am not the first person to have thought of this

What do you think all those VC/finance Tweeters spreading panic-headlines about "THESE 20 BANKS ARE ALSO SITTING ON BIG SECURITIES LOSSES!" were trying to do?
