The NYCB scare made for an almost PTSD like reaction in cross-asset markets. So far, we consider the story a non-event and put more emphasis on the guidance from Powell.
US Bank Watch – 3 arguments for the inevitability of more banking failures
The higher-for-longer crowd has rightfully been celebrating as the short end of the curve has reached pre-SVB levels. We find that structurally nothing has changed and that 10 years of ZIRP being replaced by unprecedented and unpredictable rate hikes is still bound to bring more pressure on banking and here’s why.

Macro Watch: The one on regulation, FDIC incentives and cutting cycles

5 Things We Watch: The return of the banking crisis, Japan, China, Liquidity and Euro Inflation
The banking crisis seems to be back, Asia is apparently the new black, and the hopes of an economic comeback in the West is vanishing. Things are certainly not as we thought a couple of months ago, but follow along as we look at the best hideouts in this week’s edition.
Something for your Espresso: So, the banking crisis wasn’t over after all?
First Republic Bank seems like a dead man walking, and the stress is all the sudden bank after banking reports show a decline in deposits – BOTH in Europe and in the US.
Something for your Espresso: A week of can kicking on the cards?
This week’s economic data is unlikely to be able to rock the narrative in a major way. We watch permits, LEI, and South Korean trade data, but find it unlikely that the crisis mood is going to resurface.
Something for your Espresso: What is the status on this bank crisis?
Flows into money market funds are slowing, while only survey data truly hints of an upcoming credit crunch. Watch the H8 data on bank balance sheets end of business today.

Something for your Espresso: Bye bye to AT1 investors
Another hectic week is in the making and we don’t find risks to be contained yet. The Fed is likely to hike on Wednesday even if markets are screaming that they should rather cut. The first stages of the crisis playbook are playing out. The next will be true pivots from central banks.
Steno Signals #40 – The banking crisis is likely to accelerate in coming weeks
The banking crisis will continue to rage until the Fed and the ECB accept the underlying reason for the deposit flight. Banks cannot cope with an über-inverted yield curve, why cuts are needed asap to contain the situation. It will likely get worse before it gets better.
Something for your Espresso: The rates roller-coaster
Up, down, up, down. Front-end rates are schizophrenic these days and the hiking cycle is close to being over consequently. The banking crisis “complicates communication”.
