Is this the next bank to fail?

Everybody knew it wasn’t going to stop at just three, right? There had to be a couple more before we hit solid ground.

They are being bought out, apparently at a much lower price.

Stock down 27 percent today.

I bet some people with that they had locked in some gains yesterday.

Did they open it back up? I'm seeing it still dropping. Currently at $7.50

I see AW numbers are slightly higher than what it was at prior to tanking later today.

I'm having trouble finding the buyout price, safe to assume it's around current AH trading number?

I just saw they announced a merger with Banc of California yesterday.

Banc of California and PacWest to merge, raise $400 million in equity
quote:

Banc of California (NYSE:BANC) and PacWest Bancorp will merge in an all-stock deal to create a bank with $36 billion in assets, the companies said on Tuesday, coming together just months after the regional banking sector was mired in crisis.

To help fund the combination, the lenders have also agreed to sell $400 million of new shares to private equity firms Warburg Pincus and Centerbridge Partners.

The combined bank will have $25.3 billion in total loans and more than 70 branches in California. It will be based in Los Angeles and led by Banc of California CEO Jared Wolff.

I know a few guys here (myself included) bought pacw during the regional selloff a few months back.

What's the play? Sell now and move on? Any reason to hold?

Great question. I’m in at $6.94 so up 41% overall right now. Don’t need the cash so probably will just set a stop loss and roll with it a bit longer. I guess

Back up just below 10 now. Not too worried about it having only 100 shares. I have no clue whether I should stay or go.

Missed that play. PACWP has gone from $6.24 in the May trough to 20.72 now.
