What is OTC?
There will be some Tigers who will ask how to trade them following the delisting of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.
OTC stands for Over-the-Counter, which refers to the trading of financial instruments, such as stocks, bonds, or currencies, directly between two parties without the involvement of a formal exchange.
In an OTC market, the parties involved negotiate the terms of the trade, such as the price and quantity of the financial instrument being traded, privately and without the need for a centralized exchange. This is in contrast to exchange-traded markets, where buyers and sellers transact through a centralized exchange and follow standardized rules and procedures.
OTC markets are popular for trading in less-liquid assets, such as small-cap stocks or corporate bonds, and for complex financial products, such as derivatives.Moreover, it can also provide trading liquidity quotation services for securities that do not meet the requirements for listing on the U.S. stock exchange or NASDAQ.
$SVB Financial Group(SIVBQ)$ and $Signature Bank(SBNYL)$ now switch into OTC Markets. A few brokerages offer OTC trading, including Tiger Brokers. You can buy or sell OTC stocks at Tiger Brokers if you want. The OTC Markets U.S. is open Monday through Friday from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time (GMT-04:00).

🌟🌟🌟It would seem that the Bull is back after a scary March when there was a bank run and the collapse of SVB and Signature Bank. The US indexes closed higher today.
However inflation is still high and the Feds are still intent on quelling it.
Nonetheless I believe that the markets are off to a great start for April and another earnings season will be here in a few weeks.
Being a Singaporean, I believe in the future of our vibrant economy and the 3 Singapore banks are the bellwether of our financial markets. My favourite bank is $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$ and I intend to hold this long term. DBS is the winner of numerous awards including the World's Best Bank for 5 years running and the safest bank in Asia.
With a wide moat, rock solid balance sheet and an excellent management team, I believe that DBS will continue to grow exponentially in the long term and I am proud to own a little part of it.
@TigerEvents
It is nice to have $Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ to offer OTC trading for Tigers to unload their $Signature Bank(SBNYL)$ and $SVB Financial Group(SIVBQ)$ stocks, as the risks associated with the OTC market, such as counterparty risk, lack of transparency, difficulty in price discovery, and lack of regulation, may not be suitable for most of the Tigers here.
Also, do scrutinize all the banks and don't lose your precious by getting into another rabbit hole again. [OMG]
Come and comment, Tigers.

Now looks like clear for me to trade through OTC but will not go for both banks mentioned as I have no confident for such volatile stocks but will consider for $BYD Co., Ltd.(BYDDY)$ ! [smile]
The second WSB？
if want to buy banks, better stick to the big banks like $Bank of America(BAC)$ or $JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$
