Jim Cramer posted on September 29 that the market feels tired and that bank stocks are not heading into earnings season with any momentum behind them.
Banks typically set the tone for the entire quarter when they report, so a weak setup from this group carries weight well beyond the sector itself.
The post drew heavy engagement from investors already sizing up what to expect when results start arriving.
If Cramer's read is right, soft bank earnings dampen sentiment broadly before the rest of corporate America reports.
