Core Development: Big US bank stocks head for longest weekly losing streak since 2008

Market & Financial Impact: Major US banks are experiencing their longest weekly losing streak since the 2008 financial crisis, driven by mixed quarterly earnings and rising inflation. The KBW Bank Index has fallen about 13% since its August peak, continuing a trend of losses. Concerns about artificial intelligence disrupting financial services contribute to the negative sentiment toward the sector. Analysts highlight challenges involving elevated interest rates potentially slowing economic growth.
