MNI BRIEF: Canada Says Has Leverage Against Trump Tariffs
Latest Round Of Regional Bank Worry Leaves Footprints In X-ccy Basis
The latest round of U.S. regional bank/CRE worry (centred on NYC Bancorp’s Wednesday earnings release/dividend markdown/worry re: certain credit matters) is generally seen as a contained issue, although the KBW index is ~4% lower vs. Tuesday’s closing levels, while the S&P regional bank ETF (KRE) is the best part of 9% lower and Aozora Bank’s Tokyo listing has experienced a heavy sell off in the wake of a warning re: FY net loss due to its exposure to U.S. office loans.
- This has evoked memories of the early ’23 U.S. regional banking crisis, with the impending end of the Fed’s BTFP scheme also factoring into discussions as well.
- We stress that most still see this as a fairly contained issue, unlike the early ’23 situation.
- Still, funding markets have seen a bit of a reaction to the news with 3-month USD cross-currency basis metrics (vs. EUR, JPY & GBP) all moving lower on the NYC Bancorp news.
- Here we flag that the moves have been contained, also pointing to a lack of systemic threat, albeit with the access to USD demanding a little more premium than was seen in the early part of the week.
