Gold surges after brutal selloff as Wall Street banks tell investors to ‘buy the dip’

Gold jumped over 5% on Tuesday, marking its biggest daily rally since November 2008 after two days of heavy losses. Spot gold soared 5.8% to $4,935.56 an ounce by 0818 GMT.

On Thursday, Utah-based Zions Bancorporation and Phoenix-based Western Alliance Bancorp revealed they face hefty losses on problematic loans – including a $50 million charge-off at Zions and a $100 million bad loan at Western tied to alleged borrower fraudtheguardian.com. While relatively small banks, the revelations sent shockwaves through the financial sector. “The event drew inevitable comparisons to the regional bank stress that followed the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in 2023,” noted Deutsche Bank strategist Jim Reid, “[and] raised broader questions over potential credit quality issues after a lengthy period of elevated rates and expansion in private credit”theguardian.com. Investors wasted no time dumping financial stocks. Regional bank shares cratered, with Zions stock sinking about 12% and Western Alliance down 10% by day’s endts2.tech.

The borrowers – investment funds tied to financiers Andrew Stupin and Gerald Marcil – allegedly used the money to buy distressed mortgages, then shuffled the collateral to other entities, according to Zions’ lawsuitstraitstimes.comstraitstimes.com. Zions moved quickly: it accelerated the loans to default, sued the guarantors, and charged off $50 million, essentially writing the loans down to zero while it pursues recoveryts2.tech. The surprise loss was small in absolute terms, but it was highly unusual – Zions typically makes much smaller business loans, so a $50 million fraudulent loan raised red flags about its underwritingts2.tech. “The optics of a large C&I loan to a fraudulent borrower from a bank that specializes in small C&I loans is not great,” noted Raymond James analysts, questioning Zions’ risk controlsts2.tech.
