Cusp catastrophe from a negative shock. by Charles D. Brummitt (618626)

“…The following behaviors occur as decreases: the negative shock becomes more severe because the expected payoff from bonds decreases according to [see the top axis of (D)]; the largest equilibrium price [the right-most root in (A)–(C), the maximum of the curves in (D)] decreases, at first slowly and then precipitously when passes the region of three equilibria [compare panels (B) and (C) and notice the region of three equilibria near in (D)]; after passing the region of three equilibria, there exists only one equilibrium, at which the banks are insolvent [red dot in (C), red curve in (D)]. …”
