"LPL Financial Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:LPLA) is an independent broker-dealer that offers technology, brokerage, and investment advisory services to financial professionals and institutions. The firm’s shares continued their streak of steady outperformance due to the earnings leverage associated with the aggressive and ongoing U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) policy that has resulted in interest rates rising dramatically and quickly. LPL also largely avoids the potential uptick in credit risk that is often experienced by more traditional banks in periods of economic stress."
