Or just some, as it turned out, valid business advice. That being said, I would never let my investors choose my banks (as in more than one bank) holding my company's cash. And I definetly wouldn't use some not-to-big-to-fail, not international bank to hold my multi-millions in VC money, which is the only yhing keeping my company a float.
Giving the advice is not what I’m referring to. I’m referring to intentionally leaking the advice to the press so they run the story about how Peter Thiel is warning everyone which accelerated the outflow.
