So let me get this hilarious story straight. NATIXIS.
This bank has a big oil exposure, owns 51% of H2O which sees its funds crash and ofc is Covid exposed like the rest of the world. unsurprisingly the stock crashes.
But wait, what happens mid march ????
Insane rally and epic short squeeze ! Why ? Because of the crash the dividend yield goes to the roof ! And the bank replaces Unibail in a high dividend index, which triggers massive forced... buyers ! (ETF, index funds etc)
But that is not the end of the story. Because dividend yields are calculated based on... expected dividends. And Kaboom on friday the SSM announces a dividend bank for all SSM banks 😂
Unsurprisingly this morning
So basically we got an epic short squeeze based on a inclusion on an index based on a dividend... that will probably never exist 😂
Don't you love efficient markets ?
The reason I'm saying "probably" btw is because the SSM guidance is for banking group and Natixis is part of BPCE ... so there is a small chance they could escape the SSM guidance. That would defeat the spirit of it, but not the letter. Let's see ! Such suspense !!
