[Find the new technology]( is securing profits for people even in down markets [here.](   March 21, 2023 Dear Reader Good Afternoon, You know what the central banks do in times like these - they select who will be the winners and the losers. Ultimately, at the end of the day, the Fed determines who comes out on top. So, congratulations to all the Credit Suisse investors on their IPO exit after 117 years. That's what perseverance looks like. And to the original investors of 1856 - hats off to you. Now let's look at New York Community Bank (NYCB). And kudos to Tim Melvin for doubling down on NYCB last Friday and scoring a 30% gain. This is precisely the type of action we see during crises like this - we witness shotgun marriages being hastily arranged. As we've seen over the past two weekends, the central bankers and the FDIC have been playing a game of cards, trying to piece together the right banks. It's reminiscent of that scene from 'Too Big to Fail' where the Timothy Geitner character has to shuffle through a bunch of cards to find the perfect match. But don't walk away from your trading desks just yet because this banking crisis is far from over. There are a few more banks in the game, and the rumor is that Berkshire Hathaway could be throwing its hat in the ring, especially out west. So keep your eyes peeled for more deals on the horizon. I'm keeping a watchful eye on relatively more unstable banks, like PacWest (PACW). Sure, Kenny's day trading this stock, but let's remember that insiders bought it up around $15. As we [dig deeper into this crisis]( with Janet Yellen announcing today that they're willing to back-drop the system even more, the riskier assets become more appealing because they have yet to implode. PACW remains at the top of my watchlist. I'm currently evaluating the [optimal approach for trading it]( and a high probability trade looks more favorable, such as selling a put spread rather than outright buying it. ([learn to increase your probability of profit with flashpoint trader]( The challenge for us right now is to remain optimistic amidst this crisis while it's apparent that the government is improvising as they go along. They've essentially resorted to the same playbook as they did in 2008, just redefining the term "bailout." During her statement to the American Bankers Association, Janet Yellen emphasized that their focus is on the entire system, not individual banks. It's not a bailout; it's something called a commercial solution. It's a new term that they've come up with. So, is there light at the end of the tunnel? It's hard to say. Looking at the regional banks affected by this crisis, it's evident that the coasts are bearing the brunt while the midwest remains relatively stable. FRC and similar companies will likely face increasing pressure from their peers, the FDIC, the private sector, and government to find a private solution after receiving substantial $30 billion injections. Nevertheless, the FDIC and government are currently focused on individual bank deposits, leaving the larger players to tackle the equity equation on their own. This explains why Warren Buffett's name has been surfacing lately. As traders, it's important we remain adaptable and [make informed decisions]( based on market trends. If we notice positive momentum and capital movement, we must be prepared to take advantage of it. With the market at a crossroads, we'll have to wait until Wednesday at 2:35 pm ET for Chairman Powell to speak and lead the way. ([get your bull and bear hyperturn list before the Fed makes its decision]( I'll be trading the Fed announcement live with Kenny Glick in the main room tomorrow at 1:45 pm ET. This statement from Jerome Powell could be one of the most important moments of his career, and we don't want to be caught off guard.
