Citigroup shares gained modestly Monday, closing at $114.65 (up 0.9%) despite a harassment lawsuit against wealth management head Andy Sieg. The stock’s muted performance mirrored broader financial sector strength as investors awaited Fed policy signals.

A former managing director’s sexual harassment claims—which Citi calls "meritless"—failed to derail the stock’s climb. Trading volume remained steady between $113.16-$115.46, suggesting measured market reaction to the allegations.

Banking stocks broadly advanced ahead of this week’s FOMC meeting, with traders pricing in potential rate cuts by year-end. Citigroup’s resilience highlights investor focus on macroeconomic drivers over individual corporate disputes.
