UBS analysts said in a note that the drop in HSBC’s share price after news that it would buy the UK subsidiary of Silicon Valley for 1 pound ($1.21) was “driven by profit-taking rather than underlying weakness.”

HSBC confirmed the acquisition, which excludes the assets and liabilities of Silicon Valley bank parent SVB UK, early Monday.

“We believe the 9 percent drop in equities since Wednesday is profit-taking and sector rotation rather than a change in outlook: competition for deposits increases the value of the best deposit concessions,” UBS said.

“We see scope for unprecedented value creation through volumes, cost reductions (US and UK) and potential disposals.”

The Silicon Valley bank collapsed on Friday, and investor Leon Cooperman believes that situation is a byproduct of the Fed’s low interest rates.

“This is the result of stupid monetary policy of zero-to-negative rates for a decade,” Cooperman, president of Omega Advisors, told CNBC’s Scott Wapner.

The Fed cut interest rates to zero to stabilize the economy after the 2008 financial crisis. Rates remained low for years after that until the Fed started to rise in the late 2010s. However, in 2020, the central bank lowered interest rates again to Zero with the spread of Covid-19 all over the world.
