Summary · why it matters

Jae Jim ranks the most attractive bank stocks based on Q2 2026 earnings, naming SCB the winner for dividends and value, with the highest dividend yield among large banks, a strong balance sheet, and capital above Bank of Thailand requirements. KBANK wins on profit growth, with Q2 2026 net profit expected to rise nearly 18 percent year-on-year, driven by fee income and financial cost control. TTB kicked off earnings season with a net profit of 5.51 billion baht, while BAY reported 16.91 billion baht. Analysts expect combined profit for the seven major banks this quarter at around 58.3 billion baht, and warn that a declining interest rate trend in the second half could pressure net interest margins. Jae Jim also highlights power plant stocks benefiting from the PDP 2026 plan, with GULF as the top pick, followed by GPSC, BGRIM, and renewable energy plays like GUNKUL, BCPG, and CKP.
