Charles Schwab shares drop 11%, but rally off lows as firm defends ... (CNBC)

Schwab defended its financial position, reiterating that it has plenty of access to liquidity and a low loan-to-deposit ratio.

[First Republic Bank](https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/FRC/) saw a more severe sell-off on Monday, down more than 70%, after it said Sunday it had received additional liquidity from the Federal Reserve and [JPMorgan Chase](https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/JPM/). Because of its retail brokerage deposit model with ample liquidity, some Wall Street analysts think it won't face a run like SVB did. "Focusing attention on unrealized losses within HTM (Held-to-Maturity portfolio) has two logical flaws," Schwab said. The fear is that these firms, like Silicon Valley Bank, would need to sell these holdings early at large losses in order to cover deposit withdrawals. Schwab was taking hits along with other financial firms with massive bond holdings of longer maturities. The stock was at one point on track for its worst one-day sell-off ever.

Schwab has $7.38 trillion in client assets and is (for good reason) mostly thought of as a brokerage firm. [NYSE: SCHW](/quote/nyse/schw/)

In addition, it is bolstered by "$300 billion of incremental capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank or FHLB." With a NTM normalized P/E of 12.2x, it's well below the two standard deviation zone under its 10Y average of 22x. Crawford updated that the company has over "$100 billion of cash flow." Hence, we believe it doesn't make sense that investors should categorize SCHW in the same category as the other two banks that are now under the FDIC's control. Accordingly, we believe Crawford intends to impress upon investors that the company's approach is more conservative. However, as we highlighted, it didn't matter much to investors before the SIVB debacle. In addition, "nearly all the loans [are] over-collateralized by first-lien mortgages or securities."

Charles Schwab Should Be Safe, But That Doesn't Make The Stock ... (Seeking Alpha)

Charles Schwab shares have plummeted amid the current financial industry panic. Click here to find out why I rate SCHW stock as a Hold.

For people that do want to take advantage of the current panic in the brokerage industry, I'd strongly consider positions in either TD or Interactive Brokers as an alternative. Charles Schwab still has a ton of capital, and it is a systemically important institution. As for Charles Schwab stock, if I had to take a position, I'd rather be a buyer than a seller. At a stock price of $53 for Schwab, that works out to a $12 billion holding for TD. I'd note that the FHLB line of credit alone is equal to virtually all of the uninsured deposits at Schwab. That's a key difference; unlike the banks that have failed, the majority of Schwab's depositors are fully insured and thus have far less reason to pull funds in a panic. That's in addition to the $40 billion of cash and billions more of short-term money-good government securities that Schwab owns. [SCHW](https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/SCHW)) has become a [focal point](https://seekingalpha.com/news/3946889-charles-schwab-seeks-to-put-lid-on-investors-fears-with-stock-off-most-on-record) of the current panic in financial stocks. In short, clients hold a lot of cash in their Schwab brokerage accounts. Schwab, like many others, put money into securities at low interest rates and is now paying the price as the value of those held securities have dropped sharply in value. This is the same sort of problem that we've seen at a large number of regional banks lately. This is a particularly surprising outcome since Charles Schwab was long discussed as one of the single most obvious ways to benefit from higher interest rates.
