A quick Google AI excerpt to get you started: Several major banks have faced significant fines and legal penalties for **manipulating the precious metals markets**, including silver, typically through illegal trading practices like "spoofing" or rigging benchmark prices. The fines are generally for market manipulation rather than simply holding a "short position".  Here are the banks that have been fined for manipulation related to silver and other precious metals: * **JPMorgan Chase**: In 2020, the bank paid a record-setting **$920 million** criminal fine, restitution, and disgorgement for engaging in a multi-year scheme to manipulate the precious metals and Treasury futures markets through spoofing (placing large orders with the intent to quickly cancel them). * **Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank)**: The bank reached a settlement in 2020 involving a criminal penalty of **$127.5 million** for engaging in a long-running scheme by four of its traders to manipulate precious metals futures markets, including silver. * **Deutsche Bank**: As part of various settlements between 2016 and 2021 related to rigging the London Silver Fix benchmark and spoofing, Deutsche Bank paid approximately **$75.5 million** in fines and settlements. The bank provided "smoking gun" evidence implicating other institutions as part of its cooperation. * **HSBC**: The bank faced fines totaling around **$76.6 million** for spoofing and inadequate surveillance controls in precious metals markets in settlements in 2018 and 2023. * **Bank of America Merrill Lynch**: In 2019, the bank paid over **$25 million** in civil penalties, restitution, and disgorgement for thousands of fraudulent precious metals futures orders. * **UBS**: The Swiss bank settled charges related to precious metals spoofing in 2018 and paid a fine for surveillance failures in 2025, with total penalties around **$20 million** for this conduct. * **Morgan Stanley**: The bank received a **$1.5 million** civil penalty from the CFTC for spoofing in the precious metals futures market in 2019.  I mean as you can see it's not an isolated case, it was pretty much industry standard to manipulate it, primarily downwards, for financial gain. The penalties they paid were a fraction of what they made so generally good business. However if you really want to go down the rabbit hole start at the beginning, with the Crime of 1873 where the US coinage act basically stripped silver from the people. It's been a cascade of shit from that point forward, the 1913 Federal reserve act being another major milestone. but this ventures far outside the realm of WSB so I'll leave it there.

Whoever replaces Jerome Powell as chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve in May knows one thing: If they don’t do what President Donald Trump wants, they risk being criminally prosecuted. That was the unambiguous message in Powell’s extraordinary statement yesterday, in which he vowed to continue to set monetary policy independently despite the federal grand jury subpoenas investigating his statements to Congress about alleged cost overruns in the renovation of the Fed’s headquarters. “This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings. … Those are pretexts. The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the President,” he said. “This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.” Markets moved back into “Sell America” mode overnight as traders digested the prospect of an incoming Fed chair who lacks independent credibility: The dollar sank 0.32% against a basket of international currencies; the yield on 5-year Treasuries moved sharply up, a sign that investors now regard U.S. government bonds as being suddenly more risky; gold futures—the traditional safe haven—rose 2.21% today to hit a new record high over $4,600 per troy ounce; and S&P 500 futures are down 0.66% this morning prior to the opening bell. Wall Street analysts are almost universally negative about the news. “The combined drop in the dollar, equities and Treasuries was a reminiscence of the ‘sell America’ days of last spring,” ING’s Francesco Pesole told clients this morning. “The downside risks for the dollar from any indications of further determination to interfere with the Fed’s independence are substantial. Again, the bond market will be the most important barometer, both on the short end of the curve if markets price back in more rate cuts, or in the long end with potential stress signs on independence risks. A sharp steepening of the curve could take the dollar on a fall.” At Invesco Asset Management, analyst David Chao told Bloomberg, “The Fed subpoena is another example of how U.S. assets are becoming less attractive … Not only is the U.S. retrenching behind its Fortress America borders, the country is also becoming more predatory.” The subpoenas may also trigger a burst of inflation, according to RBC Capital Markets’ Blake Gwinn. “Markets will start to price in greater inflation expectations, inflation risk premium, and term premium if the Fed’s independence comes under further attack,” he told the Financial Times. “We don’t appear to have hit it yet, but every action is another step closer to it.” Counterintuitively, some analysts think that the investigation now makes near-term interest rate cuts less likely, because Powell and the other members of the Federal Open Markets Committee (FOMC) will be determined to show the markets that they are guided by the data and not legal threats. “The move may also help Fed independence,” UBS’s Paul Donovan said in an email. “Powell’s defiance might signal a reluctance to quit as a Fed governor this year. There are signs the Senate may delay confirming the nomination of a new Fed Chair. Concerns about market reactions and perceptions of institutional independence (in the wake of legal challenges) may become hawkish considerations in setting interest rates.” ING’s Pesole said, “Markets aren’t ready to price in a loss of Fed independence just yet, either on the view that Powell will indeed remain firm in his policy views (as he’s pledged to), the FOMC won’t be heavily affected, or that the DOJ subpoenas aren’t likely to lead to an indictment.” Either way, there’s a real sense of uncertainty among asset managers right now. “The Fed as we have understood it as an institution over the past couple of decades is fading from view. It’s operating in a different environment,” ANZ’s chief economist, Richard Yetsenga, told the FT.

FauxOutrageMachine

Don’t feel bad at all, I’ve made far more costly mistakes. I was given 15K to invest in 1999, listened to a UBS “advisor” (salesman) to invest in a front loaded tech mutual fund, and watched it drop to 4K after the dotcom bust. Then to make it worse, I listened to him again, sold, and rotated out to some other fund that went nowhere. Started over solo investing in 2005, with 900 dollars in a Roth. Low cost ETFs have paid off. Time in the market beats timing the market, and even an idiot like me can make money if you just buy the market and keep saving.

Well, this is money that's for more risk-taking. All of my big money, retirement and investments are with a financial planner at UBS.

LetsMoveHigher

Ill give you money, you give it to them, they will give it to them, they give it to them, they give it to them, THEN They give it back to me.... Dumb money calls that, "The CIRCLE Jerk"! Domino's will begin to fall again. First up, UBS. After them, who is large enough to try and hold for another 2 pluss years in attempts to keep them a float? I don't think ANYBODY will touch the swaps unless FORCED to just as UBS was after Credit Suisse went tits up! I am just a gal from India who know very little. These are solely my opinions and are based on mere thoughts.... 😆

UBS and Piper Sandler increased the price target for Micron to $400 and overweight some hours ago...

Pretend-Classic-4667

UBS and reportedly Piper Sandler, hiking to **$400** is a game changer. When the big banks start chasing the stock price *upward*, it creates a feedback loop of institutional buying. My team and I were tired of paying for expensive analysis tools that didn't actually help us execute, so we built our own. We’ve turned our trading strategies into automated stock scoring algorithms to remove the guesswork. The platform is called **Verex Markets**. It’s currently in free beta with our first live strategy running. We’re aiming to build 'Bloomberg for everyone,' and to say thanks for the early support, **all beta users will be automatically upgraded to PRO for free (1 full year)** when we launch. DM me if you want the link or want to chat about how the scoring works!

Worried_Quarter469

Analyst: Joseph Spak (UBS) • Rating / PT: Sell rating, $247 price target (reiterated)  • What he said / changed (late Dec 2025): • Cut 4Q25 delivery forecast to ~415,000 vehicles (from 429,000).  • Said this is about ~5% below Visible Alpha consensus (~435,000) and more consistent with buy-side expectations (~405k–415k).  • Reasoning: expects weaker U.S. deliveries after the $7,500 U.S. EV consumer tax credit expired at the end of September 2025, creating a post-incentive “air pocket” dynamic.

Bull Case AMAT is a picks-and-shovels play on AI. The thesis is that DRAM, leading-edge foundry, and advanced packaging create a multi-year equipment spending tailwind. UBS calls it a memory "super-cycle" driven by AI server demand for high-bandwidth memory. TD Cowen models 17% growth in non-China DRAM equipment spending in 2026. The China overhang is largely known—revenue from China already dropped from 37% to 30% of sales [TS2](https://ts2.tech/en/applied-materials-amat-stock-jumps-on-fresh-analyst-upgrades-jefferies-lifts-target-to-360-as-ai-chip-spending-shapes-2026-outlook/) , and the $600M export control hit is guided. Analysts are bullish: targets range from $285 (UBS) to $360 (Jefferies). Bear Case Valuation. The stock is up ~60% YTD and near 52-week highs. Even bulls frame it as "AMAT wins if the 2026 upcycle is real and broad" rather than "AMAT is cheap." [TS2](https://ts2.tech/en/applied-materials-amat-news-and-2026-outlook-on-dec-25-2025-record-fy2025-china-export-curbs-dividend-and-wall-street-forecasts/) If AI capex cools or the equipment cycle disappoints, there's real downside. It's a cyclical, high-beta name that moves fast in both directions.

I am in. This stock is seriously undervalued but they have to show how their business model can benefit shareholders. Also the really small float will be hard for major institutional investor participation. However, there are some already have a foot at the door. Here is the Q2 to Q3 changes in holdings. Would be interesting to see the Q4 numbers: |Institution|2025-Q2|2025-Q3| |:-|:-|:-| || |GEODE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LLC|28383|33582| |RENAISSANCE TECHNOLOGIES LLC|11277|27377| |VANGUARD GROUP INC|27012|27012| |XTX Topco Ltd|22671|19612| |UBS Group AG|23942|17556| |TWO SIGMA INVESTMENTS, LP|0|12254| |BlackRock, Inc.|8607|8607| |Tower Research Capital LLC (TRC)|3646|4509| |CITIGROUP INC|642|295| On the other hand, the small float is perfect for retail investors to take control collectively.. lol. Maybe someone here can consider to create a sub for this.

JPMorgan Chase, HSBC, Scotiabank, UBS, and ICBC Standard Bank are the major "bullion banks" dominating precious metals.

What about UBS? When they acquired Credit Suisse I wonder if they were already invested in precious metals?

Buckle up folks: There isn’t enough Silver to unwind JP Morgan’s short position without driving silver prices insanely high. If that happens then…… Industry estimates suggest eight major bullion banks (JP Morgan, Citibank, HSBC, Scotiabank, UBS, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank) collectively hold 400-600 million ounce commercial short position, meaning if JP Morgan's 200 million ounce position created $4.8 billion loss, total industry losses approach $10-15 billion across all institutions, with additional contagion risk through CME Group default fund of only $2.5 billion insufficient to cover JP Morgan failure requiring assessments from other clearing members already facing their own silver losses creating cascading insolvency risk.

Bullion banks such as JPMorgan Chase, UBS, HSBC, and Goldman Sachs hold dominant sway in silver futures on COMEX, often building massive net short positions. What are they doing now?

I’m invested in the UBS Silver etf (physically backed in vault), I’m up about $40k, I started investing in September 2025. You don’t have to buy that exact etf but it is more convenient than physical silver and can be sold quicker.

This headline is just rubbish. This thread is just noice.. The Headline: "Silver Run Halted: 10% Plunge in China Fund." ​The Reality: Silver did NOT drop 10%. A specific mutual fund called the UBS SDIC Silver Futures Fund (LOF) dropped 10%. ​Why: This specific fund became a "meme stock" in China. Retail investors bought it so aggressively that it started trading at a 62% Premium over the actual value of the silver it held. Bloomberg/Economic Times (Dec 26): Confirmed the UBS SDIC Fund plunged 10% after the manager warned that gains were "unsustainable" due to the premium. ​Shanghai Gold Exchange Data (Dec 26): Shows Silver Benchmark prices actually rising ~6% on the day the fund crashed. ​Kitco (Dec 26): Reported that despite the fund crash, spot silver hit record highs.

The shutdown also disrupted data collection for November and economists warned that certain quirks artificially dragged down inflation for that period. For example, all of the November data was collected after the government reopened in mid-November, meaning more of the prices came during “Black Friday” sales than they would in a normal year. Ahead of the release, Alan Detmeister, a former Fed economist now at UBS, said that the report would be a “very poor reflection of reality.” That echoed a warning from Jerome H. Powell, the chair of the Fed, who said at a news conference last week that the incoming data this week, which included November’s jobs report, should be viewed with a “skeptical eye.” Jonathan Hill, head of U.S. inflation strategy at Barclays, said the latest C.P.I. report “should not be taken literally or guide monetary policy.”

FarrisAT

Economists at UBS see the potential for the impact to linger even longer: “In contrast to the problems with the November CPI, the CPI level in the December report, currently scheduled for publication on Tuesday, January 13, should be considerably less affected by the government shutdown. That said, even the December CPI will not be completely unaffected by the government shutdown, and some level bias could continue in the CPI until the October housing sample is revisited in the April CPI that is published in May. We suggest paying little attention to what is published [for November] because it will be based on less information than usual, will depend on assumptions that the BLS is not providing detail on, and might be biased downward.”

Upvoting. But let’s cut the crap, what is your YTD? I especially like your point number 5. Basically gotta look at less discussed and owned stocks and lesser known areas of the market, right? Please give some sectors industry groups that you like right now. If you are up 30% YTD I will buy what you are buying. I am very heavy in tech like a lot of people but I’ve been trying to diversify. These are the areas I have been buying: transportation stocks (trucking, rail road). European financials (got lucky with UBS calls and own shares, but if you picked any big names in the EUFN you would have done well). Big US banks and regional banks (just bought TFC), various groups within the health care sector (even the offensive groups within health care like biotech is somewhat uncorrelated to tech). Copper miners and steel stocks. Bought a big basket of oil and energy but that thesis hasn’t exactly played out so well at least yet, refiner stocks worked for a while but then stopped.

Digital_Nar

Not sure where you’re pulling those numbers, but they don’t match the tape or fresh filings. Let’s break it down: * **Float**: Your 1.8M is off. Post-rebrand, OS is 2.0M with 2.0M float after adjusting for insider holdings. Tight, but not *that* tight. * **Insider ownership**: 44%? Fresh data shows **2.4%** (48K shares). GTII doesn’t own 700K shares—they sold their brand portfolio to RYM for $50M in August 2025. That’s an acquisition, not a stake. * **Institutions**: 2% total, not 7%. Vanguard, UBS, and Geode hold minor positions. No heavy institutional accumulation. * **Volume**: Today’s volume is \~13% of the 20-day average—23K vs 180K. This isn’t “going crazy,” it’s illiquid and easily pushed around. * **Short interest**: 3.82% (43K shares), borrow fee 5–10%. Not a squeeze setup. * **Dilution overhang**: 7.6M warrants + 6.2M shares issuable on converts = **600% potential dilution**if exercised. That’s the real float risk, not retail FOMO. Your thesis hinges on a misread of the GTII deal and float size. The real play here is a rebranded hemp-THC story with strong cash ($35.6M) but high burn ($10M net loss last quarter). If you’re bullish, it’s on regulatory rescheduling and execution...not on faulty float math. Do your DD with real filings (10-Qs, S-1s) and level-2 data. This isn’t a pump, it’s a volatile small cap with asymmetric risk. Trade accordingly. Arrivederci.

physical gold deliveries have gone from a timeline of 4 days to a timeline of 3 months in Switzerland, the land of gold :) UBS recently wrote me a note that the gold delivery will be postponed until february 2026 now please imagine this: our financial system works on leverage gold is sold on paper nobody really knows how much gold is in a vault of a certain fincorp they might double the amount now just to worry about having the actual physical gold later and you are buying this paper gold with confidence that it's there, while actually it is not now tell me how scary that is, I'm all ears the problem is that the system is usually not just leveraged on a 1:2 ratio, but they leverage finances to a much higher extent Buying physical gold might have been the best decision somebody could've made at the start of the year

META has a 27 billion debt issuance they kept off their balance sheet. They're all burning mountains of cash According to recent analysis, Meta has quietly shifted roughly $30 billion in AI-related financing off its balance sheet through special purpose vehicles, or SPVs. The arrangement, reportedly involving Blue Owl Capital, lets the company borrow heavily to build data centers and chip infrastructure without showing the full debt load on its books. It's a clever financial move and a risky one. Analysts warn that while SPVs can boost flexibility, they also obscure leverage, echoing strategies used before the 2008 financial crisis. UBS estimates that AI-linked debt is now growing by about $100 billion every quarter, and Morgan Stanley projects tech firms could be relying on as much as $800 billion in off-balance-sheet credit by 2028.

>Also what broker would ever lend based on a house lmfao I’ve never even heard of that. Idk, UBS gave us a better deal on our mortgage because we have most of our investments with them. I figured it might work the other way around. I have never considered investing on margin, but I also never switched from snorting coke to freebase, so maybe I'm just boring. >You definitely can. Surprisingly, yes. I did find some sources that indicate that the level of margin you are using (and higher) is not unheard of at your portfolio size, so I stand corrected. It seems batshit insane from the standpoint of the brokerage, but that's not your problem. Everyone's a genius in a bull market, I guess. Congrats and good luck!

I specified that mortgages are different, but they look at more than salaries. Lenders also look at debt-to-income, credit history, employment history, trends around home values in the neighborhood, insurance costs, etc. You could have a good salary, but if you just got your first job, recently got a big raise or work in an unstable industry, the approval amount will reflect that. Our UBS portfolio is worth over twice the value of our home, household income is over $1M, we have near-perfect credit and we borrowed through UBS, but we still only got less than a 1% break on the interest rate. This is all to agree with you that mortgages are *easier* to get than loans for investments, because the collateral is the thing you are buying, but lenders still don't take them lightly (post-2008, anyway). Therefore, I would be shocked if you could borrow millions to invest with unless you have a very expensive home and/or significant existing wealth. Not that you have claimed otherwise, but some ITT seem to assume that anyone off the street could make a similar play.

All banks are in on the scam. They all constantly raise targets just like Tesla. Cramer and CNBC are in on it, so is BoA, MS, UBS, Wedbush (course) I really think they funnel these stock sales into sales into some shell companies and then make purchases to drive the price up. The price movement and bid/ask spreads are not natural. They pump it up every single morning. They’re probably in on the options chains too.

If your knowledge is low, go with an advisor at somewhere like UBS, etc. You want a pro handling your money and advising you. Not taking advice about exactly what to put it in from folks on reddit. While there is much amazing advice here, if you dont have the knowledge to sort through and execute it, there’s a really good chance you’ll make a huge mistake. You go to a doctor for medical advice, right?

SOFI calls. Speaking at UBS Global Tech & AI conference Monday SP 500 reballancing announcement should be this week sometime in the after market. Dec 10 Fed rate cuts 🎲 Dec 19 SP 500 reballancing date of effect.

I personally have calls and want to be excited but I have no fkn clue why. I guess UBS said the ocean has “$177 trillion” of mineral resources but that seems like a silly reason for pump

Major Bank targets for the S&P 500 by the end of 2026 * Deutsche Bank: 8,000 * Morgan Stanley: 7,800 for its 12-month forecast from November 2025 (implying a 2026 target), but with a bear case of 4,900 if the U.S. economy suffers a deep recession * Evercore ISI: 7,750 (base case), with a bull case of 9,000 * Wells Fargo: 7,600  * UBS: 7,500 * Jefferies: 7,500 * Barclays: 7,400 Make it make sense.

So they and Raymond James are bullish. UBS is bearish.  Instructions unclear, something caught in ceiling fan.

UBS says a lot of shit. Some comes true, some doesn’t. If UBS would like to post all of its market positions in real-time using a verifiable method, I’ll listen to them.

UBS says sell-off is over.  Raymond James says there's a 10% drop coming.  The media is basically the WSB daily thread.

AMAT. UBS upgrade to strong buy based on demand for DRAM WFE equipment. Up over 3% today. Been a semi under performer past year. Catch up bounce could be big.

I mean a bunch of banks, including UBS, have come up with similar targets for 2026. Not that anyone can predict it, much less Redditors. Personally I think we are hitting above this target, easily.

don't think that was ever an issue, UBS did terminate a chf9b state gurantee agreement from the swiss gov to cover potential credit suisse related losses.

0.7% on a $2M+ portfolio AUM is normal market practice for top wealth management companies like UBS, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch. I get full management and financial planning. I have 6 portfolios, 1 direct indexing S&P500, 1 direct indexing Russell 1000 growth, 1 back door roth IRA, multiple Private Equity funds, 1 custom core portfolio for growth, 1 portfolio for stability, 1 cash account with HYSA, T-bill, Muni Bonds. The wealth management firm is taking care of everything, investment of my RSU, rebalancing, cash transfer to my family, tax advices, advisory free for my 401K and more.

Depends on what you are looking for. I held off for a long time and when I finally just signed on to my local/ mid size firm at 250k min / 2% they were dead honest that I shouldn’t use them just for Investments at that fee. They do it all though and are a 1 stop shop ( UBS was other option but they don’t do taxes I don’t believe). Even though Investing and retirement planning seems somewhat straight forward where it gets tricky for me are the taxes. Within 1 month after reviewing last years taxes they found an error, filled out the forms and got me a corrected refund that paid for their service many times over. When making some good money, figuring out taxation when selling stocks, safe harbor rules, Roth rollovers in retirement, etc is worth it for me. They are also honest that I can just keep the min for them and they will still give advice for all other non firm assets ( advice on my brokerage with post tax $, advice on mega backdoor Roth, 401 plan adjustments, my stock sales, etc)

Content_Advice190

**☀️ ARRY — Bullish Setup (UBS PT $15, +60% Upside)** UBS reaffirmed **Buy** and lifted its target to **$15**, highlighting stronger U.S. utility-scale solar demand, steady backlog growth, and early benefits from the APA acquisition. Margins are firming, guidance is rising, and execution looks back on track after a tough 2024. With short interest still around **28 % of float**, any sustained bid could squeeze this one higher. >

UBS is too late. Sharma Disposable Income Formula predicted S&P 500 to be around 7500 by end of 2025, way back in March 2025. And the formula has never been wrong since 2009 !

AKdemy

In late 2007, despite the housing market already showing cracks, most (Wall Street) strategists were still predicting gains for 2008. Goldman, Lehman, UBS, Citi, Merrill Lynch, and others were all expecting positive single-digit returns. The median strategist forecast for the S&P 500 going into 2008 was about a +10% gain. Instead, the market dropped about 40%. In short: never trust any such forecast.

To their credit, UBS predicted 6600 for the s&p at the end of this year around this time in 2024.

UBS is showing liquidity problems and bad collateral, its not everyone's problem until its everyone's problem. I think this melt up is over.

When is the crash incoming? Is UBS over leveraged with GME swaps? Have gme shorts closed their positions or they are kicking the can trying to survive another day? Does the DTCC commit securities fraud on a daily basis?

UBS liquidating two of its hedge fund arms might make a slight dent.

Between OpenAI looking for government backdrop, big spikes in the fed repo and UBS looking to shrinking credit rating agencies don't be surprised if we see that within the next week.
