2 Major European Bank Stocks Have Thumped the S&P 500 Index This Year. They Still Trade at Less Than 65 Cents on the Dollar

The S&P 500 has had a tumultuous year, largely due to President Donald Trump’s tariff policies. The index started off strong but took a hit as concerns about tariffs loomed. However, after Trump announced a pause on implementing higher tariffs, the market bounced back and recouped most of its losses. As of May 8, the S&P 500 was down only about 4% for the year, indicating potential challenges ahead.

On the other hand, European stocks have outperformed their American counterparts, driven by attractive valuations and the expectation of increased investment in local economies. Two major European banks, Barclays and Deutsche Bank, have seen significant growth this year and still have room for further upside.

Barclays, a British bank, has seen its stock rise by nearly 23% this year and 54% over the past year. European banks have faced challenges post the Great Recession, including low interest rates, weak GDP growth, and increased regulation. However, Barclays has managed to improve its returns, with a 14% return on tangible equity in the first quarter of 2025.

Deutsche Bank, Germany’s largest bank, has also shown financial progress despite regulatory issues related to anti-money laundering. The bank has reduced costs, improved capital efficiency, and increased revenue, with a 11.9% return on tangible equity in the first quarter of 2025.

Both Barclays and Deutsche Bank offer potential for long-term growth, with Barclays trading below its tangible book value and Deutsche Bank making strong financial strides. Investors may consider these European bank stocks as attractive opportunities for investment.

Before investing in Barclays or Deutsche Bank, it’s essential to consider the recommendations of the Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team. They have identified 10 stocks with high growth potential, which could lead to significant returns in the coming years. It’s worth noting that past recommendations from the team have yielded substantial returns for investors.

In conclusion, European bank stocks like Barclays and Deutsche Bank present compelling investment opportunities, especially considering their current performance and future growth prospects. Investors looking for exposure to the European banking sector may find these stocks appealing for their portfolios.
