Robinhood Markets, Visa, and SoFi Technologies are the three Financial stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Financial stocks are equities issued by companies whose primary businesses are financial services—banks, insurers, asset managers, broker-dealers, payment networks, exchanges and other finance-related firms. For investors, they provide exposure to interest-rate movements, credit cycles and regulatory risk; they often pay dividends but tend to be cyclical and sensitive to economic downturns and balance-sheet shocks. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Financial stocks within the last several days.
