Launched on 06/19/2006, the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (ARCA:KRE) is a smart beta exchange traded fund offering broad exposure to the Financials ETFs category of the market.
<h2>What Are Smart Beta ETFs?</h2>
The ETF industry has long been dominated by products based on market cap weighted indexes, a strategy created to reflect the market or a particular market segment.
Market cap weighted indexes offer a low-cost, convenient, and transparent way of replicating market returns, and are a good option for investors who believe in market efficiency.
There are some investors, though, who think it&#39;s possible to beat the market with great stock selection; this group likely invests in another class of funds known as smart beta, which track non-cap weighted strategies.
Non-cap weighted indexes try to choose stocks that have a better chance of risk-return performance, which is based on specific fundamental characteristics, or a mix of other such characteristics.
Even though this space provides many choices to investors--think one of the simplest methodologies like equal-weighting and more complicated ones like fundamental and volatility/momentum based weighting--not all have been able to deliver first-rate results.
<h2>Fund Sponsor &amp; Index</h2>
The fund is sponsored by State Street Global Advisors. It has amassed assets over $3.25 billion, making it one of the largest ETFs in the Financials ETFs. Before fees and expenses, this particular fund seeks to match the performance of the S&amp;P Regional Banks Select Industry Index.
The S&amp;P Regional Banks Select Industry Index represents the regional banks segment of the S&amp;P Total Market Index.
<h2>Cost &amp; Other Expenses</h2>
Cost is an important factor in selecting the right ETF, and cheaper funds can significantly outperform their more expensive cousins if all other fundamentals are the same.
Operating expenses on an annual basis are 0.35% for KRE, making it one of the least expensive products in the space.
It&#39;s 12-month trailing dividend yield comes in at 2.79%.
<h2>Sector Exposure and Top Holdings</h2>
Even though ETFs offer diversified exposure which minimizes single stock risk, it is still important to look into a fund&#39;s holdings before investing. Luckily, most ETFs are very transparent products that disclose their holdings on a daily basis.
For KRE, it has heaviest allocation in the Financials sector --about 100% of the portfolio.
When you look at individual holdings, Western Alliance Bancorp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wal#NYSE">WAL</a>) accounts for about 2.46% of the fund&#39;s total assets, followed by Columbia Banking System Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/colb#NASDAQ">COLB</a>) and Valley National Bancorp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vly#NASDAQ">VLY</a>).
Its top 10 holdings account for approximately 22.73% of KRE&#39;s total assets under management.
<h2>Performance and Risk</h2>
So far this year, KRE has added roughly 9.31%, and was up about 32.96% in the last one year (as of 09/17/2024). During this past 52-week period, the fund has traded between $38.57 and $59.23.
The fund has a beta of 1.07 and standard deviation of 30.92% for the trailing three-year period, which makes KRE a high risk choice in this particular space. With about 143 holdings, it effectively diversifies company-specific risk.
<h2>Alternatives</h2>
SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF is not a suitable option for investors seeking to outperform the Financials ETFs segment of the market. Instead, there are other ETFs in the space which investors should consider.
Invesco KBW Regional Banking ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/kbwr#NASDAQ">KBWR</a>) tracks KBW Nasdaq Regional Banking Index and the iShares U.S. Regional Banks ETF (ARCA:IAT) tracks Dow Jones U.S. Select Regional Banks Index. Invesco KBW Regional Banking ETF has $52.29 million in assets, iShares U.S. Regional Banks ETF has $640.56 million. KBWR has an expense ratio of 0.35% and IAT charges 0.40%.
Investors looking for cheaper and lower-risk options should consider traditional market cap weighted ETFs that aim to match the returns of the Financials ETFs.

Is SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF a Strong ETF Right Now?

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.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40532443/strong-economy-doesnt-justify-4-rate-cuts-this-year-how-about-3-what-experts-are-saying">Strong Economy Doesn&#8217;t &#8216;Justify&#8217; 4 Rate Cuts This Year: How About 3? What Experts Are Saying</a>
<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.
