Based on the monthly chart's RSI reading, it seems that all the banks can fall some more because the monthly RSI is not oversold yet. In the 1997 crisis, the RSI managed to go under 30 before the prices recover. You can also notice that a bottom takes about 6-12 months to form. So don't worry that you have missed it. It is best to pay 10% more for a sure bottom than catching a falling knife.
