Silicon Valley Bank collapses

JULIUS BAER
About this episode

US regulators stepped in over the weekend to ensure that customers of the collapsed bank will have access to their insured and uninsured deposits. This is calming markets after last week's losses, with the S&P 500 set to open sharply higher and investors reducing bets on central bank tightening. In today's episode, Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, looks at the level that the S&P 500 must hold to remain in an uptrend, which is 3,900. Roger Degen, Equities Research, provides more details on the US banking sector, noting that Silicon Valley Bank is not representative of the US banking sector as a whole.
