Raymond James

Shares of Raymond James Financial Inc. RJF, +1.35% tacked on 0.3% in Thursday's after-hours session, after the regional bank raised its quarterly dividend by 7% and set a $1.5 billion stock repurchase program. Shareholders of record on Jan. 2 will receive the new dividend of 45 cents a share, up from 42 cents a share, on Jan. 16.

Raymond James raises dividend to boost yield above 1.7%, sets new $1.5 billion stock buyback program

Despite all the doomsday pessimism surrounding the regional banking crisis when it peaked in March 2023, the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF has outperformed the broader S&P 500 Index. Since we initiated our "Strong Buy" rating on KRE, the fund has gained by 19.9% versus 9.9% on the SPX. Given a 2- to 3-year investment horizon and a forward P/E multiple of just 8.3x, we still see substantial upside potential for KRE.
