THE local banking trio ended the trading day in the red after the US Federal Reserve hiked the federal funds rate by 25 basis points on Wednesday – suggesting the United States central bank is close to the end of its rate hiking cycle.
DBS : D05 -2.04%led the fall with a 2 per cent decline to S$35.08, OCBC : O39 -0.77% slid 0.8 per cent to S$12.88 and UOB : U11 -0.34% slipped 0.3 per cent to S$29.63 on Thursday (Feb 2). The trio were among the six losers on the 30-stock Straits Times Index (STI), with DBS being the top loser.
The banks have been beneficiaries of policy rate hikes by the Fed, with their bread and butter – net interest margins (NIMs) – rising in tandem with higher borrowing costs.
