Goldman says buy these UK bank stocks – but there’s also one to avoid

Sell Lloyds because of its lending to indebted Brits; buy HSBC and Standard Chartered, investment bank says

Investors should buy HSBC, NatWest and Standard Chartered shares and sell their Lloyds Banking Group stocks, according to Goldman Sachs.

“We prefer international UK names; we are buy-rated on STAN and HSBC, which we see as benefiting from more diversified business models and a comparatively more benign economic cycle in Asia,” the analysts wrote.
