On May 1, 2023, Raymond James analyst Stephen Moss cut the recommendation on Valley National, the holding company for Valley National Bank and Merchants Bank of New York, to "market perform" from "strong buy," stating that "the risk of revenue challenges has increased due to rapidly increasing funding costs for the [banking] industry." Moss noted that Valley National's "deposit costs have increased at a faster rate relative to peers" and expressed "concern[] that deposit costs will continue to increase until the gap with Fed funds narrows further." On this news, Valley National's stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on May 1, 2023.
