If one thing is apparent about the Fed, it is that Jerome Powell and his team are much more hawkish than Yellen or Bernanke. Therefore, it looks like rates are going to continue to rise (even in the face of a market protest, such as is occurring). With that in mind, investors need to find ways to hedge their portfolios or profit from rising rates. One area to look is at bank ETFs. Banks tend to do well as interest rates rise as the lift in rates boosts their net interest margins, a key source of revenue for the sector. Accordingly, take a look at the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLF) and the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE), both of which had been attracting capital. Additionally, see the First Trust Nasdaq Bank ETF (FTXO), Invesco KBW Bank ETF (KBWB), and the SPDR S&P Bank ETF (KBE).


FINSUM: Banks stocks seem to be a good buy so long as we don’t get an inverted yield curve.
