Credit Suisse has announced it will be borrowing up to 50 billion Swiss francs ($53.68 billion) from the Swiss National Bank to shore up liquidity and investor confidence after its stock plunged Wednesday. TikTok has said that forcing ByteDance to sell its stakes in the app will not ease security concerns.
