USB stock falls today as bank sector slides; U.S. Bancorp bond sale and Fed week in focus
U.S. Bancorp shares slipped 1.1% to $55.58 Friday afternoon, surrendering part of this week’s gains amid a broader pullback in U.S. bank stocks.

Wall Street heads into Monday with the VIX, an options-based gauge of expected S&P 500 swings, at 15.03 — only about 12% above its 52-week low — even though Tuesday will pack five major-bank reports, June inflation and Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh’s testimony into one morning. From the consumer price index at 8:30 a.m. ET to Warsh’s appearance at 10, investors get 90 minutes to reprice rates and earnings after the bank results land before the opening bell. U.S. cash equity markets were closed Sunday.
