According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, CWBC is a Outperform.
The score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (improving profitability, lower leverage, and strong free cash flow growth). Technicals add support with price above key moving averages and positive MACD, while valuation is reasonable (P/E 12.83 with ~2.0% yield).
