Texas Capital (TCBI Quick QuoteTCBI - Free Report) shares rallied 6.2% in the last trading session to close at $62.13.

Buoyant investor reaction surrounding the banking sector’s stellar performance drove Texas Capital’s stock. The possibility of a sooner-than-anticipated rate hike in 2022 and the Federal Reserve’s asset purchase tapering also drove the 10-year yield on the U.S. Treasury note to 1.51% in yesterday’s early trading. This likely sparked investors’ interest in Texas Capital stock.
