The S&P 500 index has reached a new all-time high, surpassing the 6,000 mark.
This milestone, coupled with the post-election surge in bank stocks, indicates a positive outlook for the financial sector.
Banks such as Wells Fargo (+4%), Bank of America (+2%), and Morgan Stanley (+2%) have seen significant gains, driven by expectations of a less stringent regulatory environment and increased deal-making activity under the new administration.
Investors seem optimistic about the growth prospects for the banking industry.
