Sezzle surges, F&G Annuities retreats in weeks biggest financial movers

Corporate earnings continued to drive the biggest movers across financial stocks this week, which was also marked by signs of easing trade tensions and the Federal Reserve still in wait-and-see mode.

In all, the Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF ( XLF) eked out a 0.2% increase for the week ended May 9, outpacing the broader S&P 500's 0.5% gain.

Rising the most of any financial stock (with market cap over $2B), Sezzle ( SEZL) surged 56% in the past five trading sessions after the technology-enabled payments company raised its full-year earnings guidance;

Coming at a distant second, Brazilian lender Banco Bradesco S.A. ( BBD) climbed 13.5% on the heels of a quarterly update on its financials;

Stock and crypto trading app Robinhood Markets ( HOOD), which during the week raised its 2025 expense guide and turned in better-than-expected earnings and revenue, advanced 13.5%;

Brazil-based investment banking and brokerage firm XP ( XP) gapped up 10.4%; and

Voya Financial ( VOYA) rounded out the five biggest winners with a 9.7% rise after turning in better-than-expected Q1 headline results.

On the other side of the fence, F&G Annuities & Life ( FG) dropped 15.9% on the back of a Q1 earnings miss;

UWM Holdings ( UWMC) slid 13.3% in the same week it posted mixed Q1 results and initiated its Q2 outlook;

Delivering strong Q1 revenue, but also disappointing Q2 guidance, this week, Rocket Companies ( RKT) shed 12%;

Fidelity National Financial ( FNF) decreased 11% after recording worse-than-expected Q1 results; and

Baldwin Insurance Group ( BWIN) was off 7.3% on the week on the back of its Q1 revenue missing the mark.
