There are three key reasons why the FTSE 100’s financial sector is so appealing to me. First, it was marked down after the 2016 Brexit decision (for no logical reason, in my view). This devaluation increased in the mini-financial crisis of March/April 2023. Both overlooked the huge capital-boosting measures ...
