Leading And Lagging Sectors For February 20, 2025

<p><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/george-soros">Billionaire investor <strong>George Soros</strong></a> made some bold portfolio adjustments in the fourth quarter, signaling a shift toward growth while easing off defensive bets. </p>
<p>Soros Fund Management's latest 13F filing shows fresh bets on <strong>Alphabet Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and small-cap stocks, alongside a significant reduction in its <strong>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) put position.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the fund trimmed its stake in <strong>Alibaba Group Holding Ltd</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABAF#NYSE">BABAF</a>) and fully exited <strong>Oracle Corp </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), reflecting a shifting stance on Chinese tech.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Doubling Down On Alphabet, Small Caps</h2>
<p>Alphabet emerged as one of Soros' biggest buys, with the fund increasing its stake by 2.55%. </p>
<p>The firm also ramped up its exposure to the <strong>iShares Russell 2000 ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), a play on smaller, high-growth companies. </p>
<p>This move suggests Soros is betting on a continued rebound in both mega-cap tech and smaller, more volatile stocks.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cutting Market Hedges, Adding Fixed Income</h2>
<p>Soros Fund slashed its SPY put position by nearly 15%, signaling reduced bearish sentiment on the broader market. &#8216;</p>
<p>The fund also trimmed holdings in <strong>The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>) and <strong>iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVV#NYSE">IVV</a>), while increasing exposure to <strong>Ford Motor Co</strong>&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) debt and the <strong>iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) calls — moves that hint at an evolving fixed-income strategy.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">China Exposure Shrinks As BABA Gets Trimmed</h2>
<p>Alibaba stock took a hit in the fourth quarter as Soros scaled back his position, joining other investors in reassessing Chinese tech. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Smurfit WestRock PLC</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SW#NYSE">SW</a>) remained the fund's top holding at 5.71% of the portfolio, with Alphabet and <strong>AstraZeneca PLC</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) rounding out the top three.</p>
<p>Soros' latest moves suggest a more optimistic take on U.S. growth stocks while pulling back on market hedges and Chinese tech bets.</p>

Leading And Lagging Sectors For February 12, 2025

<p>The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has been put on ice. Staffers have been told to halt all work, and the agency's Washington headquarters has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cfpb">reportedly been shut down</a>. </p>
<p>While this unprecedented move raises serious concerns about consumer rights, it also presents a potential opportunity for investors. ETFs with significant exposure to banks, payday lenders, and credit reporting agencies may benefit if looser regulations translate into higher profit margins.</p>
<p><strong>Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43451675/bessent-freezes-consumer-financial-protection-bureau-work-leaving-lawsuits-against-jpmorgan-bank-of-america-capital-one-in-limbo">Bessent Freezes Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Work Leaving Lawsuits Against JPMorgan, Bank Of America, Capital One In Limbo</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Banking &amp; Financial Sector ETFs: The Biggest Beneficiaries?</strong></p>
<p>Big banks have frequently clashed with the CFPB over issues ranging from overdraft fees to consumer lending practices. With the watchdog out of commission, major financial institutions could see reduced compliance costs and potentially higher profits. </p>
<p>Investors looking to capitalize on this regulatory shift might consider ETFs with heavy bank exposure, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>)<strong>:</strong> This fund tracks large U.S. financial institutions, including <strong>JPMorgan Chase</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), <strong>Bank of America </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), and <strong>Citigroup </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>). </li>
<li><strong>Invesco KBW Bank ETF </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KBWB#NASDAQ">KBWB</a>)<strong>:</strong> This ETF could benefit if regulatory rollbacks allow banks to expand lending operations with fewer restrictions. <strong>Goldman Sachs</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), JPMorgan, <strong>Morgan Stanley </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>), Bank Of America and <strong>Wells Fargo &amp; Co. </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) are among the top holdings of the ETF.</li>
<li><strong>iShares U.S. Financials ETF </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYF#NYSE">IYF</a>): Another broad financial sector play, IYF provides exposure to insurance firms, banks, and capital markets. Among its top holdings are <strong>S&amp;P Global</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPGI#NYSE">SPGI</a>), <strong>BlackRock Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>) and Wells Fargo.</li>

<p><strong>FinTech &amp; Alternative Lending: Risky Yet Promising</strong></p>
<p>The CFPB has been a thorn in the side of payday lenders and fintech firms, often cracking down on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42836870/warren-buffetts-berkshire-hathaway-subsidiary-sued-over-unaffordable-loans-2008-style-predatory-loan-approval-tactics">predatory lending practices</a>. With enforcement on hold, companies like <strong>LendingClub </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LC#NYSE">LC</a>) may operate with fewer regulatory headaches. That makes fintech-focused ETFs worth watching, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Global X FinTech ETF </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FINX#NASDAQ">FINX</a>): This fund invests in innovative financial technology firms that could benefit from a more relaxed regulatory environment. <strong>Fidelity National Info</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIS#NYSE">FIS</a>) and <strong>Fiserv </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>) sit at the top of the portfolio distribution.</li>
<li><strong>iShares US Small Cap Value Factor ETF </strong>(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SVAL#BATS">SVAL</a>): It is an equal-weighted equity index tracking the Russell 2000 Focused Value Select Index which measures the performance of small-cap U.S. companies&nbsp;including LendingClub.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Background</strong></h3>
<p>The CFPB, created in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, has been — according to advocates — a necessary watchdog keeping financial institutions in check. </p>
<p>For example, the CFPB has <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/blog/twelve-years-of-protecting-consumers-and-honest-businesses/#:~:text=Here%27s%20a%20look%20at%20some,CFPB%20enforcement%20and%20supervision%20work">recovered</a> over $17.5 billion for consumers affected by fraudulent or predatory practices.</p>
<p>It has also <a href="https://www.consumerreports.org/consumer-protection/how-cfpb-changes-could-impact-consumers-a2527371632/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">established</a> rules to limit overdraft fees and reduce credit card late fees, aiming to protect consumers from excessive charges.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, critics — especially from the banking industry (i.e., JPMorgan Chase CEO <strong>Jamie Dimon</strong>) — argue <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/42024453/if-youre-in-a-knife-fight-you-better-damn-well-bring-a-knife-jpmorgan-ceo-jamie-dimon-calls-for-a-stand-against-regulation">it&#8217;s a regulatory burden</a>.</p>
<p>Now, with an abrupt directive for staff to ‘stand down' and stop all work, the agency's future is uncertain.</p>

Leading And Lagging Sectors For February 7, 2025

<p>The Federal Reserve is dialing back the regulatory burden on major U.S. banks, ending its climate stress test program and rolling out a 2025 stress test scenario that analysts see as more<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39525918/major-banks-fall-short-in-feds-2024-stress-test-results-the-market-will-view-the-re"> favorable than last year's. </a></p>
<p>The shift, combined with potential adjustments to capital rules, could offer relief to big banks like <strong>Goldman Sachs Group Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), and <strong>Morgan Stanley</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>), which stand to benefit the most from a more transparent regulatory framework.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-06/fed-tells-banks-they-won-t-need-to-do-climate-stress-tests?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a> first reported Thursday that the Fed has closed its Climate Scenario Analysis Exercise, a program that required major bank institutions and others to submit climate-related risk data. The decision marks a reversal from recent years, when regulators sought to gauge how climate risks could affect financial stability.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A More Favorable Stress Test Scenario</h3>
<p>On Thursday, Bank of America analysts, including Ebrahim H. Poonawala, said the 2025 stress test scenario appears "broadly better" than last year's, reinforcing their confidence that capital relief is on the way.</p>
<p>The stress test, designed to assess banks' resilience under hypothetical economic downturns, plays a crucial role in setting capital requirements.</p>
<p>Compared to last year&#8217;s adverse scenario, the updated parameters include reduced market volatility, a milder GDP decline, and a smaller drop in commercial real estate prices.</p>
<p>&#8220;Banks should begin to see relief on regulatory capital requirements,&#8221; Bank of America wrote in its report. </p>
<p>The Fed's latest release provided limited details on specific methodology changes but confirmed that steps will be taken to reduce volatility in stress test results and improve transparency. </p>
<p>Bank of America indicates this could be a turning point, making regulatory expectations more predictable after more than a decade of post-2008 financial crisis adjustments.</p>
<p>Analysts at Bank of America see Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley as the biggest winners, given their capital markets exposure.</p>
<p>&#8220;While relief should be broad-based, capital markets businesses could see&nbsp;relatively greater&nbsp;relief. Buy-rated Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley&nbsp;stand to see the largest benefit, in our view,&#8221; analysts wrote.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Will Capital Relief Follow?</h3>
<p>A crucial unanswered question is whether the Fed will implement its proposed two-year averaging of stress test results this year. </p>
<p>In December, the central bank announced plans to smooth out capital requirements by averaging results over two years and allowing public comment on future test scenarios. Yet, the latest release made no mention of when these changes might take effect.</p>
<p>Adding to the momentum for regulatory easing, Federal Reserve Governor<strong> Michelle Bowman</strong> – widely considered as a potential contender for the Fed&#8217;s Vice Chair of&nbsp;Supervision – said Wednesday that key capital rules should be reconsidered. </p>
<p>Bowman highlighted the need to review the supplementary leverage ratio and Global Systemically Important Bank surcharges, both of which impact large banks' capital buffers.</p>
<p>"In its current structure, [the stress test] is an opaque test hidden from public scrutiny that is used to establish variable binding capital requirements," Bowman said. </p>
<p>She called for greater transparency and technical improvements to enhance the test's reliability and credibility.</p>
