Yellen's announcement causes sharp drop in First Republic shares.
TL;DR Summary
First Republic Bank's shares dropped 15.5% after Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said there is no discussion on insurance for all deposits, making a "bull case" scenario more difficult for the stock. The bank is among those speaking to peers and investment firms about potential deals in the wake of U.S. regulators taking over Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank this month following bank runs. Morgan Stanley analysts set a target price of $54 for First Republic shares, which dropped to $13.33 on Wednesday.
