The former driver spoke out about the recent collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), which has made American investors nervous. SVB, the 16th largest bank in the country, that recently collapsed due to a sharp drop in the share price of its parent company. The shares plunged close to a whopping 60%, wiping over $80 billion in market value of the shares. According to Reuters, SVB had a huge deficit of $1.8 Billion caused by the sale of a loss-making bond portfolio. The portfolio was yielding a return of just 1.79% which is way below the current 10-year treasury yield of 3.9%.

Does Danica Patrick seriously wish to leave the country?
Danica took to social media and shared an Instagram story to express her concern over the recent financial collapse.
The post displayed in Danica’s Instagram story reveals that the CEO of Silicon Valley Bank, Gregory Becker, sold $3.57 million of stock around two weeks before the collapse took place. On the very same day, the CFO of the bank, Daniel Beck, sold stock worth $575,000. This raises numerous concerns about insider trading, which is illegal.
Danica said, “I want to run away, put a bubble around a town to shield us from chem trails and start over with 50 of my fav people.”
