Depends on what the market is valuing it today. My prediction is that the result of the auction will be a merger whereby SVB stockholders will be compensated in stock of the acquiring bank valued at a few dollars per share down from ~$300 a month ago. Depositors made whole, stockholders lose 90-99%, creditors get paid. The purchase likely sweetened by a sizable cheap Fed loan or guarantee, or maybe the Fed buying some of the distressed assets at nominal value.
