Financial
In terms of earnings, financial services is the largest industry in the world. In fact, the industry represents 20% of the market capitalization of the S&P 500.
The sector is comprised of organizations that deal with money management, including merchant banks, credit card companies, consumer finance companies, government-sponsored enterprises, and stock brokerages.
Many of the top banking groups in the world are publicly traded, as are major credit card companies and asset management firms. And although the financial sector is vulnerable to downturns in the economy, shares of these companies often benefit from better-than-expected earnings reports and industry consolidation. Most also provide dividends to shareholders.
