Capital Markets, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 51 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Capital Markets outperforming S&P 500?

Capital Markets has outperformed S&P 500 by 6.5% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 5.5%. 10 of 26 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Hut 8 Corp. is the strongest against the sector itself at +47.6%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Capital Markets has outperformed S&P 500 by 6.5% over 52 weeks and 5.5% over 13 weeks. 10 of 26 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 11 of 26 beat the sector itself. Morgan Stanley leads with income of $78,042 million, based on 13 of 27 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Marex Group Limited has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 76% evidence confidence.
Virtu Financial, Inc. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
Virtu Financial, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action

Hut 8 Corp. has the strongest one-year price move in Capital Markets at +420.1%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +45.2%. 10 of 26 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Income Scale & Growth Durability

Morgan Stanley has the highest Income among the 27 Capital Markets companies compared here, at $78,042 million. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. is next at $66,203 million. Hut 8 Corp. has the highest Income growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: Morgan Stanley is the scale leader at $78,042 million, 17.9% ahead of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.. Hut 8 Corp.'s growth is stored at the ≥100% scoring cap; the uncapped TTM change is 219.3% from a $380 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderMorgan Stanley · $78,042 million
Gap17.9% versus #2 · The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage13/27 companies · 481 observations

Investor read: Morgan Stanley is the scale benchmark; Hut 8 Corp. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Morgan Stanley's growth falls below Hut 8 Corp.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

For lenders, reported income is used instead of industrial-company sales. Growth is compared year-on-year.

Profit Scale & Acceleration

The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. has the highest Net profit among the 27 Capital Markets companies compared here, at $20,973 million. Morgan Stanley is next at $20,370 million. StoneX Group Inc. has the highest Profit growth at 56.1%, so level and change sit with different companies. 13 of 27 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. leads with $20,973 million of TTM profit, 3% above Morgan Stanley. StoneX Group Inc. shows 56.1% growth from a $462 million profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

LeaderThe Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. · $20,973 million
Gap3% versus #2 · Morgan Stanley
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage13/27 companies · 496 observations

Investor read: The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is ranked only where the comparison base is economically meaningful. Loss-to-profit flips are shown but do not win the growth table.

Funding Base & Its Composition

No company in this Capital Markets comparison reports a funding base figure this section can compare, so the Deposits rank is empty. On Borrowings, Morgan Stanley is highest at $942,036 million, across 27 of 27 companies with a usable reading.

What the numbers say: There is not enough comparable evidence to name a reliable deposits leader.

LeaderNo comparable leader
GapNot enough peers
PersistenceNot enough history
Coverage0/27 companies · 0 observations

Investor read: The current leader sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current borrowings signal.

For banks, debt is operating funding rather than industrial leverage. Deposits and borrowings are therefore shown as funding-base levels; asset quality, funding cost and liquidity determine whether that funding is attractive.

Investor read: Virtu Financial, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roe change signal.

ROE shows the return to shareholders, but should be read with asset quality and leverage.

Gross NPA — Leaders & Improvers

No company in this Capital Markets comparison reports gross NPA on a comparable basis, so there is nothing to rank here — 0 of 27 companies have a usable current reading. The section is shown rather than removed so an unavailable metric is not mistaken for one that was quietly left out. Filings were read through Jun 2026.

Lower gross NPA is better. Improvement means the ratio is falling, so ranks are intentionally inverted.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Virtu Financial, Inc. has the lowest P/BV ÷ ROE among the 27 Capital Markets companies compared here, at 0.15×. Morgan Stanley is next at 0.22×. TeraWulf Inc. has the lowest P/BV at -77.9×, so level and change sit with different companies. 21 of 27 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Virtu Financial, Inc. has the lowest comparable P/BV ÷ ROE at 0.15×, 31.8% below Morgan Stanley. Only 21 of 27 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderVirtu Financial, Inc. · 0.15×
Gap31.8% versus #2 · Morgan Stanley
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage21/27 companies · 360 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/bv signal.

Banks are compared on P/BV and P/BV÷ROE, not PEG. Lower is better only if asset quality and return durability hold; cheap book value with weakening NPAs is not automatically attractive.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Capital Markets comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 27 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 2 of the 7 ranked sections have fewer than three usable current readings. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROE can be manufactured with leverage. Read it beside ROA and asset quality.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • Banks and lenders are not forced through operating-margin or ROCE comparisons; missing lender-specific fields remain visibly missing.
  • Thin comparisons: Funding base, Asset quality have fewer than three usable current readings.

Piper Sandler Companies leads on return on assets at 7.2%, across 25 of 27 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
