C vs. ETF Alternatives
Company Description
Citigroup’s history dates back to the founding of Citibank in 1812. Citigroup’s original corporate predecessor was incorporated in 1988 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Following a series of transactions over a number of years, Citigroup Inc. was formed in 1998 upon the merger of... More

- Friday, May 24, 2:11 PM There is growing evidence Bank of America (BAC), JPMorgan (JPM), Citigroup (C), and Ally Financial violated the terms of the mortgage servicing abuse settlement, according to NY AG Schneiderman. In a letter to the settlement monitor (obtained by Reuters), Schneirderman says other states "have identified similar recurring deficiencies." The AG considers the letter to have started the clock on a "waiting period" necessary before a lawsuit may be filed. 8 Comments [Financials]
- Friday, May 24, 9:19 AM Bank lobbyists cut out the middleman, writing legislation softening financial regulations on their own instead of leaving it to lawmakers to draft the paperwork. A bill exempting broad swathes of trades from new regulation - which cruised through the House Financial Services Committee this month - was essentially written by Citigroup (C), according to emails reviewed by the NYT. Is this even news? Fans of The Aviator have seen it before. 4 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, May 22, 11:07 AM AIG remains at the top Goldman's list of hedge fund hotels (the 50 stocks appearing most frequently among hedge fund top 10 holdings). Google (GOOG) retains its #2 position. Apple (APPL) - in the top spot for 3 years until February - remains at #3. Goldman notes the basket has outperformed the S&P a bit this year and the top 20 has done better by more than 1000 basis points. We smell an ETF offering. The rest of the top 20: C, GM, PCLN, VMED, NWSA, MSFT, HTZ, JPM, APC, PFE, QCOM, CHTR, HES, CBS, EBAY, DAL, EQIX. 4 Comments
- Tuesday, May 21, 12:24 PM Low rates and sluggish loan growth will continue to pressure profits of the big banks in 2013, writes Credit Suisse. At the top of the list of those best-positioned to grow revenue, manage expenses, and deploy capital: Citigroup (C), JPMorgan (JPM), and U.S. Bancorp (USB). JPMorgan has already tipped that trading results are looking good in Q2. Look to upcoming investor conferences for more pre-earnings clues. Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, May 21, 11:06 AM Citigroup (C) looks to enhance its Latin American commercial card business, launching its Global Issuing platform for that region. Puerto Rico will be the first to adopt the new technology, making Citi the first local issuer with a chip card solution for that market. Further countries will soon roll it out. (PR) Comment! [Financials]
- Saturday, May 18, 9:15 AM Leon Cooperman and partner Steve Einhorn keep it simple: Stocks (VTI) are cheap relative to interest rates and inflation. The guy who bought T-bills (SHY) has migrated to T-bonds (TLT), the guy who bought T-bonds has moved to investment grade corporates (LQD), the guy who bought IG is now in high-yield (HYG, JNK), and so on (glasses clink in the FOMC board room). Their largest position is Sprint Nextel (S) - as fans of Masayoshi Son and long-time owners of DISH, the duo like seeing two industry titans both wanting the same asset. New Citigroup (C) management should be able to double ROE over the next 2-3 years, and Transocean (RIG) sells for a significant discount to asset value. 4 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Friday, May 17, 2:59 PM Wells Fargo (WFC) and Citigroup (C) have halted the vast majority of foreclosure sales in numerous states following the release of new standards from the OCC, reports the American Banker. Harkening back to the days of the robo-signing scandal, Wells' foreclosure sales across 5 westerns states dropped to fewer than 10 per day in April from more than 300 previously. JPMorgan (JPM) also slowed sales, but has returned to normal activity. BofA (BAC) is proceeding as usual. 1 Comment [Financials, U.S. Economy]
- Thursday, May 16, 3:55 PM Described as a win for Wall Street's biggest swaps dealers - JPM, BAC, C, MS, and GS - the CFTC approves new swap trading rules 3 years after the passage of Dodd-Frank. The rules mandate new trading platforms making bids and offers public, but require traders send request for bids to just two firms before execution rather than the five some had called for. Smaller exchanges aren't sweating it, instead happy they now have a defined system to operate under. 1 Comment [Financials]
- Thursday, May 16, 7:27 AM Citigroup (C) joins AIG in the hedge fund hotel (Apple was kicked out in late 2012/early 2013), with this week's 13F filings showing a number of well-known funds adding or initiating positions in Q1 (though Tepper's Appaloosa pared his). The stock's up 40% since Michael Corbat took the reins from Vikram Pandit and hit another 52-week high yesterday. 3 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, May 15, 7:21 AM Citigroup (C) agrees to sell its Brazilian credit card and consumer finance business to Itau Unibanco (ITUB) for $1.37B, subject to regulatory approval. The transaction is expected to generate an after-tax gain-on-sale of about $300M ($0.10/share). Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, May 14, 8:22 AM More Tepper: Turning to individual ideas, he says Citigroup (C) has become one of his biggest positions. On Apple (AAPL): If the company doesn't have something "revolutionary" coming, it better do something "evolutionary" - bigger screen, cheap iPhone. If we don't see anything by September, then it's "Houston we got a problem," and Tepper hopes he's quicker on the sell button than everybody else. 7 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, May 9, 3:18 PM U.K. mobile banking specialist Monitise PLC (MONIF.PK +9.1%) pops as Lee Cooperman - presenting at SALT in Las Vegas - calls it his top conviction pick: "no financial risk .. no debt ... the blessing of Visa." He owns more than 10% of the company. Other top picks: ESRX, QCOM, C, AIG, MET, and RIG. 3 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, May 9, 6:11 AM Citigroup (C) gains on Deutsche Bank (DB) in the race for currency trading supremacy. C (which came in second in a Euromoney Institutional Investor poll), cut DB's market share lead to just 0.28%, which is about as tight as the race for the top spot has ever been. C's ascent is partially attributable to its strong showing in emerging-market foreign exchange, where it leads DB by more than 2 percentage points. Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, May 7, 11:48 AM Citigroup (C) sues Barclays (BCS) to recover nearly $142M related to foreign exchange trading amidst the Lehman bankruptcy. Citi claims Barclays promised to indemnify Citi against any losses from settling trades for Lehman between Sept. 17-19, 2008. Citi says it lost $580M during this period, but has reduced the amount (plus legal fees) to $141.8M. Comment! [Financials]
- Monday, May 6, 9:09 AM Bacon Bradesco (BBD) drops out of the bidding for Citigroup's (C) Brazilian consumer finance unit, according to a local newspaper, after getting no reply on its $1.49B offer. With Banco Santander (SAN) not yet indicating any interest, it could leave just Itau Unibanco (ITUB) as the lone potential buyer. 2 Comments [Financials]
- Tuesday, April 30, 9:52 AM More on Case-Shiller: Home prices increased 9.3% Y/Y for the 20-city composite, the fastest gain in 7 years. Phoenix (+23%), San Francisco, Las Vegas, and Atlanta saw the biggest increases, while NYC, Boston, and Chicago had the smallest. Nationally, prices are back at autumn 2003 levels and about 30% below their summer 2006 peaks. Maybe more levered than any other large bank to home price recovery, Citigroup (C) is flat.
