- Saturday, October 15, 2011, 1:17 PM Barron's rings the bell for financials (XLF), (KBE), saying business is improving even as their stocks go in the opposite direction. The TBTF's, regionals (KRE), trust banks, life insurers - all are cheap based on any number of metrics. "No catalyst?" How about better-than-expected earnings, an uptick in the economy, and even some loan growth? "There could be a stampede back into these stocks," says fund manager Matt Lindenbaum. 29 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, October 12, 2011, 1:03 PM "Rising healthcare costs and the impact of federal healthcare reform" move Wells Fargo (WFC) to move employees into HSA-style accounts. These will have lower premiums, but be funded with employees' pre-tax dollars, thus encouraging them to spend less. Not yet a common move for large firms, Wells may find itself a trendsetter, says an HR consultant. 4 Comments [Financials, Healthcare]
- Tuesday, October 11, 2011, 3:43 PM Banks gave 5.4M subprime borrowers credit cards in H1, a 64% Y/Y increase, as lenders seek growth where they can find it. It's just a blip compared to the 14.7M cards issued in H1 2007, but the improving performance of recent credit card portfolios are making lenders more comfortable. Data suggest Citigroup (C) is leading the charge. Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, October 11, 2011, 10:22 AM With volatility likely to continue, Goldman Sachs tells clients to favor portfolios that lean towards financials that can play offense as well as carry some defensive characteristics - firms showing solid relative returns, lending growth and returning capital while also controlling expenses. The best positioned in those terms, Goldman says: WFC -1.4%, JPM -1.9%, PNC -1.8%. Comment! [Financials, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, October 11, 2011, 8:40 AM The FDIC will today officially release its proposed version of the Volcker rule, which is expected to ban banks from trading for their own profit in securities, derivatives and other instruments. The law contains some exemptions, and the way these are formulated will significantly affect large banks. (previous) Comment! [Financials]
- Tuesday, October 11, 2011, 7:25 AM While sources at John Paulson's firm say redemptions thus far are only about 10%, half of the money in the funds is from Paulson and his employees, meaning the firm has lost 20% of its outside money. Additionally, redemption notices on his worst performing funds are not due until October's end. 1 Comment [Financials]
- Tuesday, October 11, 2011, 2:54 AM A settlement between states and five major lenders over inappropriate foreclosure practices won't prevent local governments from pursuing claims for unpaid mortgage fees and securities fraud, Iowa AG Tom Miller says. Miller adds that a deal is close, although some issues could "frustrate the agreement." (previous) 1 Comment [Financials]
- Monday, October 10, 2011, 2:39 PM The big banks (XLF +4.1%) reportedly are about to strike a $20B foreclosure settlement with the Justice Department and state attorneys general. Sources say the Administration also is pressing ahead on sweeping new guidelines to overhaul the mortgage lending industry which could be part of the deal. But California and New York apparently are still not on board. 13 Comments [Financials]
- Monday, October 10, 2011, 1:51 PM Wells Fargo (WFC +4.7%) upps its stake to 65% in Golden Capital Management, a Charlotte, NC-based asset management firm with over $6B under management. The bank says the move is going to strengthen its relationship with GCM, as well as significantly expand its quant capabilities. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Monday, October 10, 2011, 9:50 AM Financial stocks (XLF +3.3%) surge out of the gate, with Bank of America (BAC +4.4%) and Morgan Stanley (MS +4.8%) each up more than 4%, after weekend news that Germany and France have agreed to help strengthen European banks. C +4.5%, JPM +3.8%, WFC +3.5%, AXP +3.1%, TRV +3%. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
- Saturday, October 8, 2011, 8:44 PM Markets sniff out weakness, and the relentless selling in financials may be no more than frontrunning John Paulson, whose Advantage Plus fund is reportedly off 47% through September's end. Redemptions - perhaps massive ones - are a possibility, meaning Paulson will have to unload financial shares, and others, he has been so fond of. One could do worse than picking a bottom in the XLF on the day he is forced to give up on the sector. 12 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, October 6, 2011, 10:30 AM Professional bear Bill Fleckenstein turns bullish on banks. "I'm going to risk looking really stupid. I think the drama in the U.S. banks is overdone .. Lots of people who didn't see 2008 coming are now sure they will see a replay. If the ECB starts to print finally, we will see an absolutely hellacious rally." 3 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, October 5, 2011, 9:12 AM "The prices assume financial Armageddon," says Bill Ackman (a sizable owner of C) of banking shares. Burned in 2009 when investors clamored for their money back, Ackman is planning to sell shares in one of his funds in 2012 in order to secure more permanent capital. 2 Comments [Financials]
- Tuesday, October 4, 2011, 3:55 PM U.S. banks are spiking on the news out of Europe, with Bank of America (BAC) and Morgan Stanley (MS) having particularly sharp moves. Both stocks have jumped about 10% higher in the past few minutes. 2 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Tuesday, October 4, 2011, 9:48 AM The price of protection against default by Morgan Stanley (MS) has naturally risen the past few sessions. Also note the sharp inversion of the curve, meaning it costs far more to insure against default today than tomorrow. It's a bit too remindful of 2008 for comfort and TARP 2 is likely politically impossible. What next? Comment! [Financials, On the Move, U.S. Economy, Top Stories]
- Monday, October 3, 2011, 4:27 PM New multi-year lows all around amongst the large banks: C -9.8%, BAC -9.6%, and MS -7.7% were hardest hit. GS -4.7%, WFC -3.9%, and JPM -4.9% also taking lumps. Friday's news that the CA AG is pulling out of fraudclosure settlement talks and today's word the FHA may deny lenders payments due show how politically toxic the banks have become. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
