The Financials Sector Bounces Back
ETF top story for the week of June 5 to 9, 2023.
U.S. banks have been struggling since regulators shut down and sold Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic. However, the sector may have bottomed out as it bounced back last week, driving ETFs in the Financials sector up 1.32%.
In a notable demonstration of confidence, executives at U.S. banks have displayed an aggressive stance by significantly increasing their holdings of company shares according to VerityData. This surge in insider buying, reaching its highest level since the onset of the pandemic in 2020, serves as a compelling indication that the industry may be entering a pivotal turning point. In total, 778 executives of 244 different banks experienced insider share buying during the second quarter of this year, compared with 524 buyers in Q1 2023.
