Michael Cyprys has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Charles Schwab’s robust asset growth and strong client engagement. The company reported a significant increase in total client assets, reaching $11.2 trillion, with net new asset inflows showing a healthy annualized growth. Despite a slight deceleration in new account growth, there was a notable year-over-year improvement, indicating sustained client interest and engagement.
Additionally, Schwab’s margin balances have shown impressive growth, which is positively impacting the net interest margin. While there was a minor decline in daily average trades, the overall trading activity remains strong, particularly in derivatives. The company’s ability to attract new, smaller accounts, possibly from younger generations, further supports the positive outlook. These factors collectively contribute to Cyprys’s optimistic view and the Buy rating for Charles Schwab’s stock.
In another report released today, Barclays also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $113.00 price target.
