Welp, the feds bail out the banks again. Allowing them to borrow at the FED window at FED rate and use an asset that could be 30% underwater.

Essentially they can ride this out with a spread of FED funds minus ~1.5% (which is what most of these HTM securities are).

Small loss for banks so they can continue to make stupid decisions.

What this will do is give JP more room to raise rates short term as he doesn't have to worry about banks liquidity now.

Market should rally from here and not look back as the 5.5-5.75 is pretty priced in.

Pain to come in the real world and lending will dry up. Why take a chance with my capital at a bank when I can make 5% at the FED.

All hail mega banks and S&P 500 companies... They are our overlords now.

Fed was created to prevent bank runs. They are lender of last resort. They just did their job. Taxpayers would have been more screwed if this didn't occur and then have more money spent with the stimulus that would occur.
That you and many others think and believe this nonsense is why the charade continues.

Anybody seeing, hearing, reading or know anyone that is deeply market connected that can verify the Shorting of bank stocks has been put on hold? Also, all Shorting put on hold? I highly doubt this, but life ain't like it use to be either..

ETA: TD Ameritrade hurting from naked Short FTDs...??? Just rumblings I'm guessing.

Goldman makes the call. No more rate increases. 2 year is crashing right now.

Pivot has been called.

For reference, historical bear markets do not end until pivot in fed policy takes place. Very interesting.

Isn't the bottom typically in around six months after rate decrease? Haven't double checked it but if true we still have a ways to go down

Quick chart (close but not exact SRs) while I wait to go into my barber.

Zones I am targeting to downside in weeks ahead.

Notice the volume Friday.

Of course trade what's in front of you.







Looks like we may achieve my zone 1 target. Let's see.
