'Bond king' Gross says he's long on Western Alliance Bancorp., Synovus Financial, PacWest Bancorp and the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF.

Bond king Bill Gross said Friday he’s bought stock in four beaten-down regional banks as well as an exchange traded fund made up of banks, after a rough few weeks for the sector in the wake of the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank.

Gross is not currently in a legal position to recommend stocks since he’s no longer a fund manager officially, but he wrote in his latest Wall Street Playbill that he’s had a “long-term wish to own a bank.” These and other regional bank stocks have been volatile with double-digit losses this year, as investors fretted over potential runs on deposits and the below-par value of their securities portfolios.
