Goldman Sachs identifica 20 ETF con movimientos destacados en días de la Reunión de la Fed

<p>Shares of <strong>Wells Fargo &amp; Co</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) fell 7% to $61.04 Friday afternoon as <strong>President Donald Trump&#8217;s</strong> sweeping <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44647999/trumps-tariff-war-could-take-us-tech-industry-back-a-decade-while-china-steam-rolls-ahead-analyst-says">reciprocal tariffs</a> sparked a sell-off in financial markets and stoked <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/04/44650039/where-is-the-sp-500-headed-after-trump-tariffs-provoke-dramatic-plunge">growing concerns</a> about a potential global economic slowdown.</p>
<p>As one of the largest U.S. banks, Wells Fargo is significantly exposed to the risks associated with rising trade tensions. Tariffs pose a threat to economic growth, business confidence and consumer activity—all of which are essential to the bank's profitability.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What's Behind the Slide?</strong></h3>
<p>Wells Fargo generates a substantial portion of its income from traditional lending, including consumer and commercial loans. A slowdown in economic activity due to tariffs could weigh heavily on loan demand and interest income, particularly if inflation rises <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy">while growth stalls</a>.</p>
<p>At the same time, businesses facing uncertainty may scale back expansion plans, leading to weaker demand for commercial credit—a core segment of Wells Fargo's operations.</p>
<p>In addition, the bank's wealth and investment management division, which benefits from stable markets and investor confidence, could come under pressure if volatility continues to rattle sentiment. A sustained market pullback might also affect asset management fees and reduce customer activity.</p>

<p>Investors can gain exposure to&nbsp;WFC by&nbsp;investing&nbsp;in the <strong>Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NASDAQ">XLF</a>).</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy WFC Stock</h2>
<p>By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Wells Fargo &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.</p>
<p>Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.</p>
<p>In the case of Wells Fargo, which is trading at $60.65 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 1.65 shares of stock.</p>
<p>If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a>  Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.</p>


What's Going On With Wells Fargo (WFC) Stock?

<p>Wall Street's sell-off shows no signs of easing into the week's close, in what's shaping up to be the worst week for U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">equities since March 2020</a>.</p>
<p>The market's bleeding is now visible across the board: the Dow Jones has slipped into correction territory, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 has entered a bear market after falling more than 20% from its highs.</p>
<p>Tech and semiconductor stocks have taken the brunt of the damage, following China's announcement of retaliatory tariffs of 34% on U.S. goods — a tit-for-tat move matching the rate once imposed by President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>The VIX index — also known as the &#8220;market fear gauge&#8221;&nbsp;— spiked 35% to 40 levels, heading for the highest daily close since October 2020.</p>
<p>Other countries are threatening retaliation, fueling fears of a broader global trade war that could disrupt supply chains and weigh heavily on the global economy.</p>
<p>The <strong>iShares Semiconductor ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NYSE">SOXX</a>) — a key proxy for the U.S. chipmaking industry — has plunged 16% this week, on track for its worst performance since September 2001 at the height of the dot-com crash.</p>
<p><strong>Apple Inc</strong>. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) extended its losses by another 4.7% on Friday, heading toward its steepest two-day decline since 2013, as investors brace for potential revenue hits from the new Chinese tariffs.</p>
<p>Even <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645518/strong-jobs-report-offers-hope-but-will-it-be-enough-to-counter-tariff-turmoil">a strong U.S. jobs report</a> — with 228,000 payrolls added in March, far above the expected 135,000 — did little to soothe nerves.</p>
<p>Hopes that Fed Chair <strong>Jerome Powell</strong> might strike a more dovish tone were dashed. He <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44648681/powell-cites-tariff-driven-inflation-risks-shrugs-off-trumps-call-for-perfect-time-to-cut-rates">offered no signs of urgency to cut </a>rates, reiterating that the Fed is in no rush, and flagged inflation risks tied to tariffs. Powell stressed the importance of monitoring inflation expectations closely. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> continued posting on Truth Social, touting the &#8220;great jobs numbers&#8221; and warning China against behavior it &#8220;cannot afford to do.&#8221; He again pressed Powell to cut rates, saying it's the "perfect time," but his words seem to be losing sway on Wall Street.</p>
<p>As stocks slumped, bonds notched their best day of the year thus far. The popular <strong>iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) fell 2.1%. Yields on the 10-year Treasury note were down by 10 basis points to 3.94%. </p>

Wall Street Massacre Rages On, Chipmakers Eye Worst Week Since Dot-Com Burst, Bonds Rally: What's Driving Markets Friday?

<p>Dip-buying remained absent in early Friday trading in New York, with Wall Street deep in the red as global trade war fears continued to escalate, despite the March jobs report showed continued signs of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645518/strong-jobs-report-offers-hope-but-will-it-be-enough-to-counter-tariff-turmoil">U.S. labor market resilience. </a></p>
<p>The U.S. economy added 228,000 jobs in March—the strongest gain since December 2024—sharply beating expectations of 135,000, according to figures released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.</p>
<p>Still, the report did little to calm nerves. Investors fear it may be the last strong print for a while, with the economic impact of rising tariffs expected to seep into the data in the coming months.</p>
<p>The unemployment rate ticked up just 0.1 percentage points to 4.2%, remaining low by historical standards, while wage growth broadly aligned with forecasts. Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% month-over-month and 3.8% year-over-year.</p>
<p>Wall Street remained deep in the red after China announced a retaliatory 34% tariff on U.S. goods—matching the rate imposed by President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> on Wednesday—intensifying fears of a full-blown trade war.</p>
<p>Trump took to Truth Social on Friday. "Great job numbers, far better than expected. It's already working. Hang tough, we can't lose!"</p>
<p>He added. "China played it wrong, they panicked," and reassured investors: "This is a great time to get rich—richer than ever before!"</p>
<p>Investors are now on edge, awaiting remarks from Fed Chair<strong> Jerome Powell</strong> at 11:25 a.m. ET on Friday, hoping for any hint of a dovish shift in policy tone.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street In Bloodbath: Could Powell Halt The Bleeding? </h3>
<p>Here's how the key benchmarks moved at the open:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>S&amp;P 500</strong>, tracked by the <strong>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), was down 2.9% by 9:55 a.m. in New York.</li>
<li><strong>Dow Jones Industrial Average</strong>, tracked by the <strong>SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>), fell 2.6%, officially entering correction territory after falling more than 10% from its late-2024 peak.</li>
<li><strong>Nasdaq-100</strong>, tracked by the <strong>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), fell 2.9%, hitting a 20% decline from all-time highs, entering a bear market. </li>
<li><strong>Russell 2000</strong>, represented by the <strong>iShares Russell 2000 ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), fell 4.1%. </li>
</ul>
<p>Every sector traded in the red, with heaviest losses concentrated in <strong>Energy</strong>&nbsp;<strong>Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>), down 5%, and <strong>Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>), down 4%. </p>
<p>While stocks continued to slump, bonds attracted haven flows. Yields on 10-year Treasury notes fell by 10 basis points to 3.94%. The popular <strong>iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) rose 1.5%. </p>

Leading And Lagging Sectors For March 28, 2025

<p>Investing can feel like walking a tightrope for some, especially if they are not enjoying <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44402198/aggressive-trader-with-nearly-1m-in-play-bets-big-on-market-drop-what-if-we-dont-get-there-reddit-debates-his-high-risk-strategy">high-risk</a> bets. For many investors, the dream is to grow their money steadily and reliably so they won&#8217;t be kept at night worrying about market crashes.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why so many risk-averse investors turn to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43897884/dividend-investor-making-5-000-per-month-with-632-000-reveals-portfolio-it-takes-time-but-its-doable">dividend</a> assets, be it stocks or ETFs. Dividend-focused holdings offer a tangible return while still providing possible growth in the long run. Still, even within this safer zone of investing, choices can be daunting.</p>
<p><strong>Don't Miss:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2"><strong>Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</strong></a></strong></li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a></strong><strong> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>That is exactly what a Reddit user is faced with. The investor has done his homework, comparing two popular ETFs, Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOO#NYSE">VOO</a>) and Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHD#NYSE">SCHD</a>), and found that their performance is 97% correlated.</p>
<p>&#8220;After carefully doing a correlation function against SCHD, the results were 97% correlation (same market directions) for the last 5 years. Buying SCHD will double my quarterly income by almost 2x more than VOO. But then again, 3+ years has a higher percentage gain for VOO over SCHD. I know the underlying assets are different between these ETFs and the fee is lower in favor of VOO. What would you do?&#8221; he wrote.</p>
<p>He aims to generate $1,000 per month in dividend income and he's also cautious about locking the funds away in tax-deferred accounts, preferring to have control over his investments. The investor is also holding Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QYLD#NASDAQ">QYLD</a>)​ but says it doesn&#8217;t have great growth, so he&#8217;s wondering which of the two ETFs he should go with.</p>
<p><strong>Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a</strong><strong> <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund"><strong>7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</strong></a>?</strong></p>
<p>The Reddit community has shared insights and advice in the comments, so let&#8217;s analyze them.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">VOO Vs. SCHD: Where to Invest $50,000?</h2>
<p><strong>Why Not Both?</strong></p>
<p>Many Redditors argued that since both ETFs are highly correlated but serve slightly different purposes, splitting the investment between the two makes sense.</p>
<p>&#8220;Split the total investment between both and just enjoy the gains and that you aren&#8217;t putting everything into just one ETF,&#8221; a Reddit user suggested.</p>
<p>A commenter pointed out that investing in both ETFs will secure the poster&#8217;s portfolio because, if one ETF goes down, he has the other as backup.</p>
<p>&#8220;If one sector of the market does poorly, you can rely on the other for growth. If done right, both would still pay in dividends, you&#8217;ll just have good growth overall. Plus, if for whatever reason you need to liquidate the asset in the poor-performing market sector, you&#8217;ll have the backup,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong>Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks"><strong>One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</strong></a></strong></p>
<p><strong>SCHD All The Way</strong></p>
<p>Most commenters in the thread pushed for SCHD as the better choice, especially since the investor mentioned he's focused on generating dividend income.</p>
<p>&#8220;Just go with SCHD. There are YouTube videos out there that cover the long-term results of all these different funds and even compare them. SCHD blows the others away,&#8221; a user wrote.</p>
<p>&#8220;SCHD over VOO any day,&#8221; another suggestion reads.</p>
<p>A Redditor recommended the poster go with VOO if he&#8217;s looking at the total returns, but if he&#8217;s focused on dividends, he should choose SCHD.</p>
<p>&#8220;If the goal is total return, I&#8217;d go with VOO; if the goal is dividend income, I&#8217;d go with SCHD,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong><em>See Also: Dogecoin millionaires are increasing –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-millionaires"><strong><em> </em></strong><strong><em>investors with $1M+ in DOGE revealed!</em></strong></a></em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Consider Alternative Holdings</strong></p>
<p>While most comments revolved around SCHD and VOO, several Redditors mentioned alternative assets, both high-yield plays and growth-oriented holdings.</p>
<p>&#8220;Have you considered [AG Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: MITT] or QYLD? Both these stocks have double-digit dividends,&#8221; a commenter asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;I'd do like 30/40 in VOO or SCHD and the rest in [Vanguard Information Technology ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vgt#NYSE">VGT</a>)] or [Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vug#NYSE">VUG</a>)],&#8221; a piece of advice reads.</p>
<p>A Redditor suggested selling covered calls rather than investing in VOO and SCHD.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am all in [Microsoft (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>)] and I have no problems with it. I sell MSFT calls monthly. You&#8217;d probably get better yield going all in on [SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spy#NYSE">SPY</a>)] and writing calls there rather than splitting between VOO and SCHD,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Sharing his favorite assets to buy, this commenter highlighted the dividend income he receives from his holdings.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have $50,000 in QYLD. The monthly dividend is over $500 every single month. The bulk and rest of my s&#8211;t is in [​Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vti#NYSE">VTI</a>)]. Then, I'm buying [Realty Income Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/o#NYSE">O</a>)], [Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)], VUG, [JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepi#NYSE">JEPI</a>)], [iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mtum#NYSE">MTUM</a>)], [Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/xlf#NYSE">XLF</a>)], [Kinder Morgan (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/kmi#NYSE">KMI</a>)] (since it dropped so much, how could I not?), [Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amd#NASDAQ">AMD</a>)], and [Apple (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)],&#8221; he wrote.</p>

Leading And Lagging Sectors For March 27, 2025

<p>April tends to be a favorable month for U.S. equities, and history makes a compelling case for this. Over the past 95 years, the S&amp;P 500 has gained an average of 1.1% in April, finishing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">higher 61% of the time.</a></p>
<p>In April, the index notched some of its most powerful monthly rallies in history, surging 43.6% in April 1933 and 17.9% in April 2020. Yet, it&#8217;s not always been a smooth ride — the worst April returns were a 20% crash in 1932 and a 9.5% drop in 1970.</p>
<p>Zooming in on the past three decades, April's track record becomes even more convincing. </p>
<p>The <strong>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), the benchmark ETF tracking the S&amp;P 500, delivered an average gain of 1.9% over the last 30 Aprils, making it the second-best month of the year after November. SPY ended April in the green 77% of the time.</p>
<p>That said, 2025 has started on a cautious note. Through March 26, the S&amp;P 500 is down about 3% year-to-date. </p>
<p>Yet history suggests a seasonal tailwind could soon be at play — especially in four specific sectors that have consistently outperformed the broader market in April.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Financials (XLF): Banks Lead The Earnings Charge</h3>
<p>The <strong>Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>) has historically been April&#8217;s top-performing sector. </p>
<p>Since its inception in 1999, XLF has risen an average of 2.7% during the month, with gains coming in 65% of the time. The seasonal strength is largely tied to the first-quarter earnings season, which kicks off in April and is typically led by major banks. Optimism surrounding annual earnings outlooks often provides a boost.</p>
<p>XLF has already outperformed the broader market in 2025, gaining 4.5% year-to-date. Within the sector, <strong>JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>)<strong> </strong>stands out: Over the past 45 years, JPM shares have climbed an average of 2.6% in April, delivering positive returns 68% of the time.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Consumer Discretionary (XLY): Big Tech Retailers Deliver Spring Strength</h3>
<p>The <strong>Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLY#NYSE">XLY</a>) also posted a strong seasonal performance, rising 2.4% on average in April over the last 26 years. It has a 65% winning rate during the month.</p>
<p>April is historically the best month for <strong>Amazon.com Inc. </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), with an average gain of 7.6% and a 70% success rate. </p>
<p>Likewise, <strong>Tesla Inc. </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a><strong>)</strong> tends to accelerate this time of year, with April returns averaging 5.9%, making it the second-strongest month for the electric vehicle maker, behind only November's 11.9% surge.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Materials (XLB): A Solid Spring For Commodities And Chemicals</h3>
<p>The <strong>Materials Select Sector SPDR Fund</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLB#NYSE">XLB</a>) also delivered strong April sector performers. XLB has risen an average of 3.1% in April over the past 26 years, with a 65% win rate. The ETF is up about 3% year-to-date, suggesting some early momentum heading into April.</p>
<p>One heavyweight in the materials space, <strong>Linde plc </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIN#NYSE">LIN</a>) — which represents roughly 20% of XLB's holdings — has consistently delivered in April. With 32 years of historical data, Linde has averaged a 3.5% gain in the month and ended April in positive territory 69% of the time.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Energy (XLE): The Strongest April Performer</h3>
<p>Energy stocks have historically delivered the most robust gains in April, with the <strong>Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>) averaging a 4.1% return and closing the month higher 62% of the time. </p>
<p>Yet, it&#8217;s worth noting that this impressive figure is skewed by an extraordinary rebound in April 2020, when XLE surged nearly 30% following a historic 35% plunge in March 2020 — a period marked by collapsing oil prices and pandemic-driven market chaos. </p>
<p>Looking at long-term leaders within the sector, <strong>Exxon Mobil Corp. </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) shares have gained an average of 2.7% in April over the past 40 years, while <strong>Chevron Corp. </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) performed slightly better, rising 3.1% on average over the same period. </p>

Leading And Lagging Sectors For March 26, 2025

<p>According to the largest provider of private-label credit cards in the U.S., consumers — pressured by years of persistent inflation — are reducing spending as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44475192/consumer-confidence-falls-to-lowest-since-2022-as-inflation-tariff-worries-grow">economic outlook worsens</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> <strong>Synchrony Financial</strong>'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYF#NYSE">SYF</a>) chief credit officer<strong> Max Axler </strong>told Reuters that while most borrowers continue repaying loans, spending has dipped across income levels. </p>
<p>&#8220;Purchase volumes have gone down across the industry as consumers across all income groups become more thoughtful about spending,&#8221; Axler said.</p>
<p><strong>Read Next:</strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44475805/homebuilders-kb-home-lennar-cut-prices-as-homebuyer-demand-has-slowed-materially"><strong> Homebuilders KB Home, Lennar Cut Prices As Buyer Demand Has &#8216;Slowed Materially&#8217;</strong></a></p>
<p>The latest data released by the Consumer Confidence Board on Tuesday showed that pessimism about the economic future is gripping American consumers. The Consumer Confidence Index fell 7.2 points in March to 92.9, its fourth consecutive monthly decline and the lowest reading since late 2022. </p>
<p>According to recent Federal Reserve data, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/03/44439342/are-us-consumers-starting-to-crack-pessimism-loan-defaults-bargain-hunting-rise">delinquencies</a> on auto loans, credit cards, and home credit lines have increased, and economists warn that President <strong>Donald Trump</strong>'s tariffs may exacerbate price pressures. </p>
<p>Consumers may soon face additional financial strain as student loan servicers resume reporting delinquencies to credit bureaus. The process, which began in mid-February 2025, could worsen already stretched household finances.</p>
<p>&#8220;For the first time in five years, federal student loan delinquencies will start to reappear on credit files, and we expect a lot of consumers to be stretched due to this,&#8221; <strong>Rikard Bandebo</strong>, chief economist at VantageScore, told Reuters. </p>
<p>&#8220;We expect delinquencies to go up as a result of it at a time when consumer debt is already high,&#8221; Bandebo added.</p>
<p>Concerns about consumer strength have also weighed on financial stocks. Shares of Discover Financial Services (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DFS#NYSE">DFS</a>) have shed nearly 10% over the past month, and <strong>Capital One Financial Corp.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>) are down 6% over the same period.</p>
<p>The <strong>SPDR Select Financial Sector Fund </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>), which holds 73 large-cap financial stocks, has dipped 1% over the past 30 days on broad consumer spending concerns.&nbsp;</p>
