On March 13, 2023, First Republic led a decline in bank shares on revelations that the bank may not have sufficient liquidity, even after it secured emergency funding from other institutions. Despite the emergency funding, Raymond James downgraded the stock, highlighting the risk of deposit outflows facing First Republic. In downgrading the stock, Raymond James stated, "[d]espite the added liquidity sources, we believe deposit balances will remain under pressure in the immediate near term. While we believe the bank received some deposit inflows on Thursday during the bank run at SVB, additional panic among large depositors may have driven deposit balances lower since Thursday."

On this news, shares of First Republic common stock dropped $50.55 per share, or over 61%, to close at $31.21 per share on March 13, 2023.

Since 1993, Bernstein Liebhard LLP has recovered over $3.5 billion for its clients.
