The KBW Bank Index recorded its worst weekly losing streak since the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, falling nearly 1% this week. The index has lost about 13% since August, marking its longest six-week decline since 2008. Citigroup, Bank of America, and Morgan Stanley were among the worst performers on the gauge, while JPMorgan Chase & Co. was up about 2% for the week.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Analysts state that a higher-for-longer rate environment increases the risk of slower economic growth and higher loan losses for banks. The sector is also facing concerns regarding how artificial intelligence technology might disrupt financial services. Sustained weakness in bank stocks could be a troubling sign for the broader economy.
