In less than two weeks, big bank investors will get their first glimpse into the type of impact that the Federal Reserve’s 0.25 percent December interest rate hike had on bank bottom lines.Deutsche Bank analyst Matt O’Connor has upgraded Morgan Stanley to Buy ahead of Q1 earnings season, but believes investors still need to be selective when choosing bank stocks.After exploding out of the gate following Donald Trump’s election victory in November, bank stocks have cooled in recent weeks. Investors were anticipating the dawn of a new banking boom in a potential era of rising interest rates, financial deregulation and corporate tax cuts.
