Amid 2026 market volatility, HSBC, STN and CRM stand out after announcing fresh dividend hikes, offering investors steady income as uncertainty lingers.

HSBC Holdings Plc trades at a decade-high 1.7x P/BV, reflecting significant re-rating rather than robust earnings or book value growth. HSBC's 2025 results show modest revenue growth, persistent notable items, and a dividend yield now around 4%, reducing its high-income appeal. Cost-saving initiatives and business streamlining continue, but recurring one-offs and restructuring limit visibility on sustained profitability improvements.

Does HSBC (HSBC) have what it takes to be a top stock pick for momentum investors? Let's find out.

HSBC has started the sale process for its Singapore life insurance product manufacturing business with the hiring of an adviser, and is hoping for the deal to be valued at more than $1 billion, said three sources with knowledge of the matter.

HSBC Holdings plc (HSBC) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

HSBC posts a sharp y/y Q4 profit jump as revenues rise 41% and credit losses fall, while key business lines deliver solid pre-tax growth.

Press Release 25 February 2026 HSBC CONTINENTAL EUROPE 2025 ANNUAL AND SECOND HALF RESULTS On 24 February 2026, the Board of Directors of HSBC Continental Europe reviewed the results for the second half of the year and approved the consolidated financial statements for 2025. Revenue performance in 2025 was strong with increased client activity and deposit growth in Corporate and Institutional Banking (‘CIB') offsetting the impacts of lower interest rates on net interest margins.

HSBC Holdings PLC received further backing from analysts after a stronger-than-expected fourth quarter and upgraded guidance for 2026, which sent the shares to new highs.    Fourth-quarter pre-tax profit excluding notable items beat company consensus by 9%, UBS said, driven by banking net interest income and lower impairments.

U.S. stock futures rose on Wednesday after closing higher on Tuesday. Futures of all the major benchmark indices were positive.

HSBC Holdings PLC reported lower headline profits for 2025 but beat forecasts as the bank lifted its targets for medium-term income and returns. Pre-tax profit for the year fell by 7.4% to $29.9 billion, but this was ahead of the average analyst forecast of £28.9 billion.
