Chart (s) of the Week – Westpac Banking Corp (WBC) & ANZ Group (ANZ)

Two charts this week illustrating that the “Big Four banks” are on track for new highs in the coming months - perhaps not CBA. Similar to gold we had the below chart for WBC in play throughout 2025 targeting new highs, a bullish read through for the ASX. Again we see no reason to deviate from this roadmap, especially as most US banks continue to shine.

ANZ Group (ANZ) $37.98

ANZ +3.21%: Despite a weaker-than-expected headline profit in today’s FY25 result, the positive reaction from the market showed the focus remains on the strategic reset laid out by new CEO Nuno Matos in mid-October.

ANZ Group (ANZ) v Macquarie Group (MQG)

ANZ has also outperformed MQG over the last three months by ~23%, primarily because MQG hadn’t become as overpriced as CBA. However, we’ve been seeing more misses than beats from the “Silver Doughnut” in recent times, which is a new but unappealing trend.

ANZ Group (ANZ) v Commonwealth Bank (CBA)

CBA was driven higher by momentum traders into the EOFY, pushing it up to ~$190/sh, but ever since, it has peeled away, closing ~14% below this year's high on Monday.

ANZ Group Ltd (ANZ) $34.37

The banks have helped drag the market out of the depths of despair in April with ANZ up over +20% year-to-date, plus it paid a juicy fully franked dividend along the way - surprisingly CBA is now the laggard, only up around 10% this year. The ASX’s 4th largest bank is still yielding 4.9%, mostly franked, and remains cheap relative to the “rich” sector.

ANZ Group (ANZ) $32.78

ANZ grabbed several headlines this week for the wrong reasons while they also hosted an investor call to provide more clarity on how they are addressing these challenges, and importantly, what the immediate focus is for the bank.

South32 (S32) v ANZ Group (ANZ)

South32 (S32) awoke from its slumber yesterday’s advancing +4.5% but overall ANZ and S32 have largely danced in sync over the last 18 months as CBA enjoyed the bulk of the aggressive momentum in flows, the same “weak longs” that’s likely to see the bank lead any further weakness across the banking sector.

ANZ Group (ANZ) $29.36

ANZ is our top pick in the banking sector on relative valuation grounds, trading at a material discount to peers, while offering a higher yield that compares favourably to its own historical trends, and importantly, provides a meaningful margin over 10-year bond yields.
