When investors buy or sell ETFs like KRE or KBE, the fund manager is mechanically forced to buy or sell WBS shares regardless of WBS's individual fundamentals. We estimate $831M of passive capital is structurally linked to WBS through 8 tracked ETFs. Passive flows have a limited but growing influence on WBS's daily trading dynamics.

Passive exposure = Σ (ETF AUM × stock weight in ETF) across 8 tracked ETFs. Actual passive ownership is larger (includes mutual funds). Not investment advice.

If WBS (WBS) experiences a significant drawdown, ETF redemptions can create collateral selling pressure on co-held stocks. Our model identifies PINNACLE FINANCIAL PARTNERS (PNFP) as the most exposed collateral stock, sharing 4 ETFs with WBS. This is the "Passive Contagion" effect described in the Inelastic Market Hypothesis.

Contagion model based on shared ETF exposure and constituent weights across 15 tracked ETFs. Estimated selling pressure is a simplified model — actual impact depends on market liquidity, ETF redemption mechanics, and market-maker activity.

WBS Ownership Dynamics

Passive funds hold 1 in every 13 WBS shares, reducing daily market volatility.

WBS (WBS) exerts measurable gravity on the passive index market, currently representing 1.5% of the KRE (KRE) and 1.0% of the KBE (KBE). Across 16 tracked ETFs, approximately 12M shares (7.6% of float) are held by passive funds and rarely trade on the open market. As passive ownership grows, index inclusion changes may increasingly drive price discovery.

Float lock-up computed from 16 ETFs tracked by SecuritiesDB. Actual passive ownership is higher (includes mutual funds, pension funds, etc.).

WBS Institutional Volume Profile

252-day volume distribution by price level. The Point of Control (POC) marks the price where the most institutional volume transacted — an implicit support/resistance floor.

The highest-volume price zone for WBS over the past year sits near $72.15 (22% of 252-day volume). The current price of $72.61 trades 0.6% above this institutional floor — a sign of upside momentum, though a pullback to the POC zone is a common reversion target. The highly concentrated volume profile (22% at POC) indicates strong consensus on fair value — institutional participants have repeatedly transacted near this price.

Fails-to-Deliver (FTD) History

SEC-reported settlement failures. Elevated FTDs can indicate high short-selling pressure, operational settlement issues, or naked shorting activity.
