The rise in bank stocks is analyzed to be due to strengthened market expectations following the increase in market interest rates. On the previous day, Jerome Powell, Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, reaffirmed that there would be no changes to the current policy, but did not present any specific measures regarding the rise in long-term interest rates, causing the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield to surge intraday to 1.566%.
