SVB’s stock has dropped more than 80% from its record high in late 2021 as interest rates have increased, boosting the cost of the deposits the bank uses to fund loans.

After Wednesday’s market close, SVB said it sold all of its $21 billion in securities classified as available for sale (AFS), a portfolio essentially comprised of U.S. Treasury and mortgage-backed securities. It said it suffered an after-tax loss of $1.8 billion, to be recorded in the first quarter of 2023, as a result. Prices of fixed-income securities such as MBS and Treasury debt fall as interest rates go up.</p><p>The company plans to reinvest the proceeds from the sale into shorter-term debt to take advantage of rising rates. SVB also said it would raise $2.25 billion, including $500 million from private-equity firm General Atlantic and offering $1.25 billion of convertible preferred and common stock to investors.</p><p>“The sale of substantially all of our AFS securities will enable us to increase our asset sensitivity, partially lock in funding costs, better insulate net interest income (NII) and net interest margin (NIM) from the impact of higher interest rates, and enhance profitability,” SVB said.</p><p>The sale of banks’ so-called AFS securities has been a risk lurking in the market since the Federal Reserve began its efforts to lift interest rates to tamp down on inflation last year. Rising inflation has forced clients to spend down their deposits—a low-cost source of funding for banks.

And that they did. “Concern over a slow-to-recover VC environment have kept us cautious on SIVB shares and potentially remains a headwind as rates stay elevated,” said D.A. Davidson analyst Gary Tenner. He rates the stock at Neutral and lowered his target for the price to $200 from $250.</p><p>The concerns should linger. Moody’s, for instance, downgraded SVB Financial Group (SVB) and its bank subsidiary, Silicon Valley Bank, Thursday and changed the outlook of its ratings to negative from stable.</p><p>“SVB’s balance sheet restructure repositions its balance sheet toward asset sensitive, which will benefit profitability at the cost of realized losses on sales of investments. Nonetheless, Moody’s does not expect the environment will</p><p>recover enough for SVB to materially improve its profitability, funding and liquidity, which prompted today’s action,” analysts at Moody’s wrote.</p><p>The fear is that other banks will face the same troubles, which explains Thursday’s selling in the industry. Banks take deposits, which they then use to make loans or buy securities. If their deposits were to fall, as SVB’s did, they would be forced to sell assets at a loss.</p><p>Some observers contend the worries are overblown. SVB had a singular funding base, which made life difficult for it when start-up companies ran out of easy cash. The country’s largest banks, though, have more diverse funding sources, which should help insulate them from SVB’s problems, according to Wells Fargo Securities analyst Mike Mayo,</p><p>“[The] ‘SIVB moment’ is not fully indicative of the industry but affects sentiment,” Mayo wrote Thursday.</p><p>Sometimes, though, sentiment is all that matters.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>SVB Financial Realigns Portfolio—and Blows Up the Banking Sector</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nSVB Financial Realigns Portfolio—and Blows Up the Banking Sector\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1012688067\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2023-03-10 11:35</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>SVB Financial Group stock plummeted Thursday after it sold assets for a loss following a decline in deposits.
