$BRK.B $GOLD $JPM $KRE $OZK That’s a solid breakout. Just wait until the FED starts reducing rates and the bank balance sheets strengthen. Lending rates will still remain high and the profits will be very strong. Housing expansion isn’t over. Watch for more loan origination money to hit their earnings as we move into 2025. Also, HELOC’s. People will borrow equity from their overvalued homes and keep this expansion in full swing through 2026. At some point within 2-3 years we will see another 2006-2008 type event. Until then, go long financials, miners, long bonds, emerging markets, energy and Agriculture. KRE heading back to $80

$OZK Additionally, Bank OZK sees RESG becoming just 50% of the loan portfolio, down from 64% in Q2 2024, by 2025-2026 as loans are paid down.

$OZK I finally had some time to check out what the analysts are saying about Bank OZK and San Diego. Bank OZK has a high degree of confidence that the building will fully lease (in 2 to 5 years). And while "premature" it also believes the building could easily be converted into traditional office.

$OZK Summary of the Q&A - this is a one trick pony and the pony is nearly dead. They can diversify - but at a fraction of the nim they earn on CRE. Only option is more CRE - the diversity plan is window dressing.

$OZK Welp, looks like that loan repayment backlog just came rushing in. The "nothing is repaying" narrative is dead.

jmorg70 Posted - 1 week ago

$OZK @TraceyRyniec What are your thoughts here? You seem to lean bullish. Little skeptical because 1) having this type of concentration in a regional bank is probably reckless and 2) not fully on board with management who has been less than forthright about loan statuses in the past. But, if there is a chance they can get through the next 18-24 months without major write downs, then this is a no brainer.

$OZK "Repayments accelerated during the quarter just ended, including the payoffs of our largest ever loans in New York ($840 million total maximum commitment with a funded balance of $511 million) and Chicago ($475 million total maximum commitment with a funded balance of $376 million)."

Garybar Posted - 1 week ago

$OZK the funniest thing about this release is that these guys think they have excess capital to fund buy backs. In reality they have a nasty combo of large unfunded commitments on construction projects and probable embedded losses in their portfolio that requires more capital….much more….and that’s before their depositors flee. I’d be worried if they had a 20%+ cap ratio - whole model is on a knife edge because of the concentration.

Garybar Posted - 1 week ago

$OZK well - they decided not to reappraise the San Diego building despite all the negative press - wonder why 🤔 Empty building… rejected by the life science industry….your largest exposure…would be inconvenient to your capital ratio to have it sub standard. Brazen. I like the “we’re not going to discuss that loan further” line in their earnings release……em….i’ve a few questions?

danwithopp Posted - 1 week ago

$OZK One could argue that OZK raising their dividend this quarter, as they've done every quarter for many years now, cannot be interpreted as a sign of financial strength because everyone was expecting it. The market would interpret any pause or cut as a huge red flag, so OZK is going to raise the dividend until their backs are against the wall. HOWEVER, the new $200M stock buyback authorization was totally optional and a pretty clear signal that OZK management believes their liquidity outlook is strong. Bulls should feel a lot more confident after this earnings release. Bears have nothing but rumors and speculation.

$OZK For the properties that were appraised in 2024, the LTV is moving against the bank. There are also several trouble properties that have not been recently appraised. If they can delay any kind of issues and roll the loans or wait for valuations to climb a small amount, maybe they get out unscathed, or they may get tanked if 2-3 large properties fold.

$OZK Bank OZK conference call is tomorrow morning at 10 am CST.

TraceyRyniec Posted - 1 week ago

$OZK The analyst believes that about $1 billion in assets are about to blow up. It really doesn't sound like it if you take the bank at its word here. The disconnect is massive. I hope there are questions on the conference call.

$IWM what are people thinking for tomorrow? Shooting star on the daily not to mention massive run in three days. We have regional earnings on deck $KRE $OZK $MTB and we have jobless claims + manufacturing which should both beat. My intuition says numbers will be solid, and i could even see regional earnings being good, but this move has been too much too fast and we havent really seen any pullback...

$KRE I bought KRE in my wife’s retirement account back on 3/21 in the $49’s We’ve broke out of the downtrend with force. As the FED cuts rates, bank balance sheets will get stronger. I’m ready for banks to open up their credit facilities again. It’s time for more liquidity to move into the markets. I said it would take place in March of this year. I’m always off about 6 months. Banks are going to make incredible profits for the next several years. KRE could easily move to $100 QE 2.0 inbound. Housing/commodities expansion still intact. $OZK $RF $BAC $JPM
