JPMorgan Chase & Co., Wells Fargo & Company, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Charles Schwab are the five Bank stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Bank stocks are shares of publicly traded banks and other depository financial institutions that give investors partial ownership in those firms and expose them to the profits and losses from lending, deposit-taking, payments, and related services. Their performance is strongly influenced by interest rates, credit conditions, economic cycles, and regulatory and capital requirements, and they often pay dividends but carry cyclical and credit risk. Investors commonly evaluate bank stocks using metrics such as net interest margin, loan-loss provisions, return on equity, and price-to-book ratio. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Bank stocks within the last several days.
