Bloomberg: Banking Rally Looks Like Someone’s Building a Position
Let’s use JPMorgan as an example. The stock closed yesterday at about $84 after trading above $92 on Friday. So, say an investor thought that was too cheap to ignore and wanted to build a position. Where’s the best place to do that without being noticed? You’re looking for a place where volume is thick enough to get the order done but thin enough that the price is about as low as it’s going to be for the time being.
Looking at JPMorgan’s volume-at-price chart, the mid-$80s would be a spot to try to build a position, given the low $80s rarely holds for long in terms of trading volume. Current prices and liquidity are probably the best deal you’ll get (assuming economic conditions and loan loss provisions aren’t going to get much worse).
