Remember - in March of 2023....

Eleven Banks deposited $30B in first republic bank and it still ended up failing and having to get swooped up by JPM by December.


$1B seems like a solid start for equity raise, but what it won't do is stop the withdrawls from the customers which can add further pressure.

Banks are in trouble! You have been warned so many times.

Fed comes out and says "unemployment needs to significantly increase for rate drops to be sped up"

Opinion of one analyst based on Powell's testimony today is that the first rate cut could be delayed to end of year.

That would mean lotsa dominoes, eh Bonfire?
In theory yes, but it's all bluster until a $40 Billion bank picks up the phone and calls the FDIC. I firmly believe the FED cannot allow a banking crisis right now with deposit surpluses paper thin or nonexistent at most banks.

Normally, bank runs don't get too serious as banks have surplus deposits AND Federal sources of funding to tap into. Now? Deposits are already thin and most regional banks have already tapped some federal liquidity sources to prop up their bad bond portfolios. They're using bank run stop gaps to fund their bad decisions, without a bank run. What happens when the run actually starts?

Get it?

If Mnuchin is involved, he got convertible shares that will be picked up by JPM on the purchase. Guaranteed.

Why invest in this failing asset when returns are so good everywhere else?

The FOMO of this market is the strongest I think I've ever seen. No negative news affects it because people see any dip as a buying opportunity.

I'm just glad I let some of my buys go through yesterday. I thought about cancelling a lot of them in case we went lower, but at this point it's really seeming like a true correction may not be in the cards anytime soon.

I don't think so, it's still within the trend lines. I scalped it for a few bucks, but the volume was insane.

If it pulls back to bottom of this trend line in the next few days, that'd be Heine's magical 3.50 or so number...

It's part FOMO and part liquidity entering the market. When the money in the sideline finally deploys, the top will be in within a month.

Just make sure you know your stops.

No stops in this market is more risky than ever.

It affirms your point that everybody keeps ignoring issues in the financial sector.

Actually, it doesn't mean much of anything. If you investigate triple-leverage ETFs, you'll find a strikingly similar long-term downward trend in most of them - especially the bear-focused ones. THEY'RE NOT FOR INVESTORS.

If PLTR starts sucking up the JADC2 market for DoD, this will be a monumental win for them. Approaching $B level income.

JD might be a good lotto play or swing trade into earnings tonight. Beaten down Chinese retailer trading near cash on hand, a strong report could squeeze. Looks like some historical support in $20-21 range, possible double bottom W.

I went with March 15 $24 calls @ .45


Revenue beat and $3B stock buyback. Set alert at $31 to look at exiting this trade. Now in money at $25.

Understood, based on the market's history of essentially going up over the last century. My original post noted it was up 30% over the last 3 months.

1. Rates cut in Summer to bail out banks and Biden
2. Inflation begins to return in early Fall, but not reported till post election
2A. Biden's replacement elected over DJT
3. Economic slowdown in 3Q and 4Q as companies shed employees to protect margin as producer prices accelerate.
4. Stagflation in 1Q25 and double top inflation.
5. Dems pass tax increases with control of House, Senate, and WH to close the deficit gap.
6. Time to pay the piper for 15 years of ZIRP and easy money expansion.
7. Biggest buying opportunity of our lifetimes in second half 2025.

They don't even have to pass tax increases because the Trump tax cuts expire next year so hope everyone is ready for a decrease in your paychecks. I could see them letting them expire on businesses and taxpayers AND adding more taxes which will crush the middle class. They also won't stop spending and increase their spending, so we're ****ed. Prepare your anus.

If they let the trump tax cuts expire with how stretched every middle or low income consumer is feeling right now is political suicide.

It is NOT political suicide, my friend. That is their plan/dream. They have every election from here on out.
