UnitedHealth Group, SoFi Technologies, and Coinbase Global are the three Financial stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Financial stocks are shares of publicly traded companies whose primary business is providing financial services—such as banking, insurance, brokerage, and asset management. Owning these stocks gives investors an equity stake in firms that earn revenue from lending, underwriting, trading, and advising. Because their profitability depends heavily on interest rates, credit conditions and regulatory policies, financial stocks often move with monetary policy shifts and broader economic cycles. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Financial stocks within the last several days.
