Help! I'm Dumb!

Hello! Good-for-nothing consultant here! I just recently wrapped my head around what happened with SVB, but now there is all this stuff going on about Credit Suisse. Can someone, in very simple terms, please explain to me what the deal is with CS right now? Is this the result of the SVB collapse? If so, why and how? Similar situation to SVB or totally different? Thanks!

SVB & Regionals: Monkey put banana in tree. Lots of monkey do that. One day tree does not have as many banana as once did, cannot get banana back. Monkey scared, takes out banana. More monkeys see monkey take banana and they take their bananas. Tree owes bananas to monkeys tree does not have.

Monkeys across jungle see frantic monkeys take banana, get scared, and take out their banana from other trees and put bananas into the biggest banana holding trees in jungle like Chase Bank, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America.

Credit Suisse: Tree has been dying for while since monkey that manages tree do bad job, get exposed to several economic problems. Monkeys who invested bananas into manager monkey get concerned that perhaps the manager monkey might not have all the bananas it has been saying it has had for years. Manager monkey tries to promise that it has all banana it keeps telling investor monkeys.
