US bank stocks dip after Fed rate hike, but still outperform broader market in early Sept.

Following the Federal Reserve's interest rate increase on September 16, US bank stocks saw a decline in valuations. Despite this, the S&P US BMI Banks index slightly rose by 0.1% from August 31 to September 15, outperforming the S&P 500 which fell by 1.2% in the same period. The median price to adjusted tangible book value for these banks dropped to 151.2% by September 30 from 156.8% at the end of August, though it remains higher than the 140.0% recorded at the end of 2022. This suggests that while the rate hike pressured bank valuations, the sector showed relative resilience compared to the broader market.

Most U.S. bank stocks in September provide context for the Financials sector on Pluang. As of Oct 07, 2026 15:02 WIB, out of 85 priced Financials-sector US stocks, 32 rose and 50 fell today. Deutsche Bank AG (DB) saw a 1-day change of -1.79% with 100% buy orders, contrasting with HSBC Holdings plc (HSBC) which fell by 1.64% amid 65% sell orders, while Prudential PLC (PUK) dropped 1.95%.
