Initiation

Piper Sandler Assumes Eagle Bancorp at Neutral, Announces Price Target of $27

Certain exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, experienced a significant surge following Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8217;s speech at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/24/08/40529209/jerome-powell-time-has-come-for-interest-rate-cuts-cooling-in-labor-market-unmistakable">the Jackson Hole Symposium</a>.
&#8220;The time has come for policy to adjust,&#8221; Powell said in a speech. 
The reassuring statement regarding upcoming rate cuts sparked a strong rally in the most interest rate-sensitive corners of the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40530908/powells-rate-cut-signal-triggers-small-cap-rally-gold-makes-record-highs-dollar-tumbles-7-etfs-o">market during Friday&#8217;s session.</a> Here&#8217;s a look at three of the top-performing industry ETFs on Friday: regional banks, solar, and home builders.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1) Regional Banks</h2>
The SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) surged 5% by 3:00 p.m. ET, setting up for its strongest session since December 2023. 
Notably, all 141 of its constituents posted gains, underscoring a broad-based rally across the regional banking industry. 
Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EGBN#NYSE">EGBN</a>), United Community Banks Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UCB#NYSE">UCB</a>) and Valley National Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLY#NYSE">VLY</a>) were the strongest performers, up 10.6%, 9.6% and 8.7%, respectively.
Regional banks benefit from lower interest rates mainly because borrowing costs go down, resulting in higher loan demand among customers.
Additionally, U.S. regional banks can find a relief from decreased stress on their non-performing exposures, especially in commercial real estate, as reduced borrowing costs can encourage those firms to refinance their debt or invest in their businesses, thereby improving their ability to meet financial obligations.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2) Solar </h2>
The Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) soared 4.6% on Friday, marking its best session since late May 2024. 
Top gainers were Sunnova Energy International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOVA#NASDAQ">NOVA</a>) and SolarEdge Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) up 13.7% and 12.5%, respectively. 
Solar companies often require substantial upfront capital to finance the development and installation of solar projects. Lower interest rates reduce the cost of borrowing, making it cheaper for these companies to fund their projects.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3) Home Builders</h2>
The iShares Home Construction ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITB#NYSE">ITB</a>) gained 3.8%, on track to close Friday&#8217;s session at fresh record highs. 
Top-performing names within this industry included Builders FirstSource, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLDR#NYSE">BLDR</a>), Dream Finders Homes, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DFH#NYSE">DFH</a>) and Arhaus, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARHS#NYSE">ARHS</a>), all screening gains above 7%. 
Increased housing demand due to more affordable mortgage rates and lower financing costs represent tailwinds for the home construction business.

The market interpreted Powell&#8217;s remarks as a green light for the first interest rate cut at the imminent September Open Market Committee meeting. However, Powell provided no indications regarding the size of the cut or the future trajectory of interest rates.
Powell paved the way for a turnaround in companies most negatively impacted by the recent surge in interest rates. Markets had already fully priced in a September rate cut and over 85 basis points of cuts by year-end.
&#8220;Fed Chair Jerome Powell was dovish in his Jackson Hole&nbsp;speech&nbsp;today. He didn&#8217;t hedge. He didn&#8217;t push back against market expectations of several rate cuts ahead as we anticipated he might,&#8221; Ed Yardeni, president at Yardeni Research, commented. 
&#8220;Fed Chair Powell took a dovish tone at Jackson Hole, sounding more preemptive on the labor market and locking in a September cut,&#8221; Bank of America economist Aditya Bhave&nbsp;stated. 
Powell &#8220;struck a dovish tone on the labor market and more firmly emphasized that the Fed's tolerance for labor market cooling had reached its limits and any further weakening would be unwelcome," Goldman Sachs economist Jan Hatzius stated.

Shares of banking companies are trading higher amid overall market strength following Fed Chair Powell's comments about the economy and future rate cuts.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has dispelled any remaining uncertainty by signaling that the central bank is preparing to shift its monetary policy, effectively paving the way for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/24/08/40529209/jerome-powell-time-has-come-for-interest-rate-cuts-cooling-in-labor-market-unmistakable">imminent interest rate cuts. </a>
His remarks triggered a rally in rate-sensitive assets and pushed the dollar towards the lowest close since July 2023.
&#8220;The time has come for policy to adjust. The direction of travel is clear,&#8221; Powell announced at the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jackson-hole"> Jackson Hole Symposium </a>on Friday in Wyoming.
Powell expressed increased confidence in inflation returning to the 2% target and highlighted a heightened focus on the labor market, noting that conditions are cooling.
The market found significant support in Powell&#8217;s indication the Federal Reserve has &#8220;ample room&#8221; to respond to any emerging risks.
Small-cap stocks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40530908/powells-rate-cut-signal-triggers-small-cap-rally-gold-makes-record-highs-dollar-tumbles-7-etfs-o">emerged as clear winners</a> following Powell&#8217;s speech on Friday, with the Russell 2000 index surging by 3% by midday trading in New York. Traders flocked to these companies, anticipating significant relief from the prospect of lower borrowing costs.
Regional banks, as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>), were the brightest market spot, with the industry gauge rallying over 4.5%. All of its 141 constituents showed a positive performance. 
In contrast, large-cap indices maintained their gains from the market open, showing only little reaction to Powell&#8217;s remarks.
In the forex market, the dollar extended its decline, falling by 0.7% and heading toward its fifth negative weekly close with the sharpest decline since mid-November 2023. The decline in Treasury yields weighed on the greenback.
Commodities rallied, with gold up over 1.1% setting fresh all-time highs, and silver soaring 2.5%. Crude oil also surged, up 2.4%, while copper gained 1.7%. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 2.25% to $61,863.

A fresh unexpected surge in inflation blindsided markets, shattering hopes for imminent Fed rate cuts and sending stocks down across the board. In March 2024, the annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate surged to 3.5%, up from February&#8217;s 3.2%, surpassing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/04/38181302/inflation-rises-more-than-expected-to-3-5-in-march-derails-june-rate-cut-hopes">expectations set at 3.4%. </a>
Adding to concerns, core inflation, which excludes energy and food, also exceeded expectations, reaching 3.8% compared to the anticipated 3.7%, dismissing any justifications solely attributed to higher gasoline price pressures. 
Consequently, investors sharply revised down their expectations for Fed rate cuts, now anticipating the commencement of any easing policy no earlier than September, with less than two rate cuts expected by year-end.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What&#8217;s Hot/Cold In The CPI Basket?</h3>
Expenditure categories witnessing the highest month-over-month seasonally adjusted price increase in March were: 
<ul>
<li>Motor vehicle insurance: +2.6%</li>
<li>Motor vehicle maintenance and repair: +1.7%</li>
<li>Gasoline (all types): +1.7%</li>
<li>Hospital services: +1%</li>
<li>Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs: +0.9%</li>
</ul>
Those showing the lowest monthly inflation were: 
<ul>
<li>Fuel oil: down 1.3%</li>
<li>Used cars and trucks: down 1.1%</li>
<li>Cereals and bakery products: down 0.9%</li>
<li>Other food at home: down 0.5%</li>
<li>Airline fares: down 0.4%</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wednesday&#8217;s Sector Performance </h3>
By midday trading in New York, losses were broad-based within indices. 
<ul>
<li>454 out of S&amp;P 500 stocks traded in the red</li>
<li>93 Nasdaq 100 stocks were negative</li>
<li>1,783 out of Russell 2000 stocks were negative</li>
<li>898 out of Russell 1000 stocks were negative</li>
</ul>
No sectors managed to evade daily losses, with rate-sensitive pockets of the markets, such as real estate, feeling the brunt more acutely than others.
Energy managed to hold almost steady, as rising gasoline prices improved the outlook for oil companies.
