Interest Rate Increases Stress the Banking System:

(From: The Macroeconomic Newsletter, Warren Pollock)

The FED must have to step in periodically to prevent a crisis from occurring. Interest rate sensitive derivatives and interest rate arbitrage plays are putting pressure on the continuity of the banking system.
