First Republic bailout deal fails to signal alarm for U.S. banks

“Wall Street is paranoid about which bank needs bailout next, making other regional banks an easy selloff,” said Ed Moya, senior market analyst at Oanda. He said, “JPMorgan’s acquisition of First Republic appears to have calmed the banking sector for just one day. Until there are clear signs that the emergency lending program is no longer needed, regional bank stocks remain vulnerable. It’s an impression,” he said.

“The settlement of the First Republic issue is a good sign, but there is no clear solution to the credibility credibility across regional banks, and more pressure from regulators and the government,” said Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Herman Chan. We may need a holistic approach,” he said.
