Shares of banking companies are trading lower as stocks pull back after surging Wednesday following President Trump's tariff pause announcement.

<p>Bank shares such as<strong> Ameris Bancorp inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABCB#NYSE">ABCB</a>) and <strong>BancFirst Corp</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BANF#NASDAQ">BANF</a>) are trading higher on Wednesday in response to a surprise announcement from President<strong> Donald Trump </strong>to temporarily pause certain tariffs.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> The broad-based rally followed Trump's declaration of a 90-day suspension on reciprocal tariffs for countries that have not retaliated against U.S. trade measures. While the pause excludes China — which will now face a 125% tariff on its goods — the shift in policy has eased immediate trade tensions and helped stabilize market sentiment.</p>
<p>A pause in trade escalation reduces uncertainty, which can support business lending, consumer confidence and overall economic activity — all key drivers for banks.</p>
<p>Trump's move was said to be a reward for countries that refrained from retaliating, offering them a temporary 10% tariff and delaying further duties. In contrast, China was singled out as a bad actor, with the president criticizing its trade practices and warning that the U.S. will no longer tolerate the current imbalance.</p>
<p>Treasury Secretary <strong>Scott Bessent </strong>described the tariff shift as a correction to decades of trade inequities and suggested that the market had previously misunderstood the scope of Trump&#8217;s policy. He called the 10% reciprocal tariff a "temporary floor" that adds clarity and leverage to U.S. trade strategy.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action</strong>: Ameris shares closed Wednesday up 8.31% to $54.90 and Bancfirst shares were up 6.08% to $108.29, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a></p>
