Biggest US Banks Boost Payouts After Lighter Fed Stress Test

(Bloomberg) — Wall Street's largest lenders boosted their dividends after passing this year's Federal Reserve stress tests, a hurdle that regulators made easier to clear by softening some of the requirements laid out in previous years. Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos California Exempts Building Projects From Environmental Law What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) and Morgan Stanley (MS) were among firms that raised quarterly payouts after the Fed's annual review last week, and shares of both banks hovered near record highs Wednesday. JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), Bank of America Corp. (BAC), Citigroup Inc. (C) and Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC) also boosted their dividends. In addition, JPMorgan's board authorized a $50 billion share buyback, and Morgan Stanley reauthorized a multiyear share repurchase program of as much as $20 billion, with no expiration date. Morgan Stanley advanced as much as 1% to a record $142.43 at mid-morning in New York, while Goldman Sachs rose 1.3% to an all-time high of $715.29. Citigroup was an outlier, dropping 0.2% for the only decline in the 24-company KBW Bank Index. The Fed's exam — a product of the 2008 financial crisis — showed that all of the banks examined would maintain enough capital to withstand a hypothetical economic downturn. The review tends to set the tone for how aggressive banks are in returning capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. It requires banks to consider hypothetical crisis scenarios and estimate the losses they might face based on their books of business. All 22 banks comfortably passed last week after determining they would withstand more than $550 billion in losses. The results showed that 'large banks are well positioned to weather a severe recession,' the Fed said. The scenario in this year's tests led to lower loan losses in a less severe scenario, due to the mild slowing of the US economy in 2024, among other factors. The results were also affected by lower private equity losses and higher net revenue. The Fed announced last year that it planned to make changes to its process, and in April unveiled a proposal to average results over two years when setting capital requirements. Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman has said that potential changes would help the agency address the 'excessive volatility in the stress test results and corresponding capital requirements.' In that same vein, the Fed also unveiled plans to decrease what's called the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio, which requires banks to hold a certain amount of capital relative to their assets. —With assistance from David Scheer.

The 3 areas of the stock market to buy as the dollar continues to plummet, Morgan Stanley says

The dollar just wrapped up its worst half of a year since 1973, but the US currency's loss might be the stock market's gain. Morgan Stanley predicts that the dollar will continue depreciating throughout the year but it views this trend as a "substantial, under-appreciated tailwind" for stocks, one that could drive fresh earnings growth. It also laid out four sectors of the stock market the are set to benefit most from the dollar's string of declines. "The dollar is currently down approximately 11% from the January highs and is expected to fall another 7% by mid-2026 providing a substantial boost for multinational earnings," analyst Michelle Weaver said in a recent note. In Morgan Stanley's thesis, the key tailwind for stocks is companies with high exposure to foreign sales. A weaker US dollar makes currency conversions more favorable for overseas customers and makes US goods more attractive. Weaver also highlighted the translation effect, in which such companies can "earn a premium when exchanging revenues earned in foreign currencies into USD," which does not apply to competitors who only sell in the US. This creates an environment in which larger cap stocks are well-positioned to benefit. The note adds that the S&P 500, composed of the largest publicly traded US companies, typically derives roughly 40% its revenue from abroad. By contrast, the small-cap Russell 2000 sees about 22% of its revenue from overseas sales. "We have a broad preference for large-cap stocks given their higher-quality balance sheets, stronger pricing power, and stronger supplier negotiation power — the dollar dynamic further supports this view," she noted. For investors looking for specific sectors to focus on, Morgan Stanley has highlighted those with the highest foreign revenue exposure. First on the list is tech, which boasts more than 50%. The materials sector is next, with just over 40% exposure, followed by industrials, with 30%. Tech makes up the largest portion of the S&P 500, accounting for more than 30% of the benchmark index. That's likely part of why Morgan Stanley predicts it will rise even more as the dollar declines. As the bank said in a separate report this week, upward earnings revisions are the stock market's secret weapon for hitting new highs. "Morgan Stanley expects the S&P 500 to end the year at 6,500, implying a gain of about 5% from current record levels. With analysts growing more bullish on corporate earnings, the outlook points to a potentially sustainable growth trajectory." The " Big Beautiful Bill" that's moving through Congress is also expected to increase the national deficit by as much as $3.3 trillion, which could push the US dollar down even further.

S&P 500 just saw its first ‘golden cross' in more than 2 years. Here's what comes next.

The S&P 500 is kicking off the second half of 2025 in style. For the first time in more than two years, the benchmark index tallied a bullish 'golden cross' on Tuesday. It was just the latest milestone for a recovery that has already earned a spot in the market record books. My wife and I have $7,000 a month in pensions and Social Security, plus $140,000 cash. Can we afford to retire? 'Finance makes me break out in hives': I inherited $240K from my parents. Do I pay off my $258K mortgage and give up my job? I'm a stay-at-home mom. Do I take a part-time job to spend more time with my kids — or get a job for six figures? My wife and I are in our late 60s. Do I sell stocks to pay our $30,000 credit-card debt — or do it gradually over 3 years? The stock market is hitting records — three reasons why top Morgan Stanley strategist sees more room to run Like its more downcast sibling, the 'death cross,' the golden cross is a popular indicator used by technical analysts as a gauge of momentum. It triggers when the 50-day moving average crosses above the 200-day moving average. The S&P 500 SPX hadn't seen a golden cross since Feb. 2, 2023, according to Dow Jones Market Data, during the early days of the current bull market. The index has gained more than 48% since then, FactSet data showed. To be sure, Tuesday's golden cross isn't the first bullish technical signal to emerge since U.S. stocks began their journey back from April's post-'liberation day'-tariff lows. A rare Zweig Breadth Thrust Indicator arrived in late April, just as the rebound was starting to pick up steam. Zweig breadth thrusts have a perfect record of anticipating further stock-market gains going back to at least 1982. On Friday, the S&P 500 tallied its first record-high close since February, capping off what Dow Jones Market Data had described as the index's fastest-ever return to record territory following a selloff of 15% or more. 'It's definitely a healthy sign for the market,' said Craig Johnson, chief market technician at Piper Sandler, about Tuesday's golden cross. 'Put that together with broadening participation and breadth, and we're setting up for a strong second half of the year.' History shows golden crosses have reliably presaged further gains, according to Dow Jones data. After a golden cross, the S&P 500 was higher one year later more than 71% of the time, with an average one-year return of more than 10%, according to data going back to 1928. By comparison, the average 12-month return for the index during any 12-month period since 1928 has been about 8%. Returns following the past 20 golden crosses have been even stronger, on average: In this sample, the one-year advance rises to more than 13%, with a hit rate of 85%. Unlike the previous golden cross, the latest one comes with the index just shy of Monday's record closing high. But that shouldn't make much of a difference in terms of what it means for performance over the next year, said Mark Arbeter, president of Arbeter Investments. 'The golden crosses have been great signals to get long the stock market,' Arbeter told MarketWatch in a phone interview Tuesday. He also pointed out that bullish golden crosses have been far more reliable than bearish death crosses, which involve the 50-day moving average dipping below the 200-day. The most recent death cross for the S&P 500 arrived in mid-April, after the worst of the selloff had already passed. Other notable golden crosses have graced the stock market recently. The Nasdaq Composite COMP tallied one on Monday, while shares of AI darling Nvidia Corp. NVDA saw a golden cross on Friday, Dow Jones data showed. Piper Sandler's Johnson also pointed out that small- and midcap stocks have started to pick up recently, helping the rally to broaden out a bit in yet another sign that stocks are developing in a healthy direction. Johnson said he expects the S&P 500 to finish 2025 at around 6,600. To be sure, there have also been some signs recently that stocks could be due for a pullback. MarketWatch's Mark Hulbert pointed out that the gold-platinum price ratio, a short-term market-timing indicator with an impressive track record, has just turned bearish. U.S. stocks were mixed on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 finishing slightly lower after logging back-to-back record closing highs. The Nasdaq Composite ended in the red as well, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA and Russell 2000 RUT both advanced. Ken Jimenez and Tomi Kilgore contributed reporting My job is offering me a payout. Should I take a $61,000 lump sum — or $355 a month for life? The last holdout bears are Democrats, these strategists say. Their capitulation could fuel the next leg higher for stocks. Trading in risky penny stocks is booming. Why it could be a sign of trouble ahead for the market. 'My whole financial world is upside down': I'm 'medically retired' at 51 with $428K in stocks. Is this enough to live on? 'There is tension in the house': I live with my daughter and her lazy boyfriend. She wants me to buy her house. Sign in to access your portfolio
