The last time Buffett held record cash levels was in late 2021, ahead of the 2022 market correction. Similar patterns are observed between 2018 and 2023, the only two years when the Fed hit multi-year high Fed funds rates while conducting the largest QT balance sheet reduction in history.

Bank assets and liabilities are at an extreme duration mismatch, where balance sheets are filled with long-duration, low-yielding fixed-income securities and loans, while liabilities are shorter-term than previously anticipated. Significant issues persist within the banking sector concerning the quality of their balance sheets, which, in many cases, have deteriorated further due to rising interest rates and banks' decreased ability to generate profit.

Regional Bank Update: Looking For Opportunities

Every banking crisis has triggered a wave of mergers. Every regulator in every jurisdiction is now keenly focused on the banks it oversees.
