MarketAxess Holdings: Strong Performance and Growth Potential Amid Challenging ConditionsWe also expect strategic initiatives to become a more meaningful driver of growth in the coming quarters, particularly block trading in the U.S. A combination of better market conditions, international expansion, strategic initiatives, and margin expansion should lead to better EPS momentum in 2026. With the stock trading at 21 times 2026 EPS, versus an average of 31 times over the last three years, we see good upside potential if conditions and earnings growth improve.

MarketAxess Holdings: Positioned for Growth Amid Volatility and Strategic InitiativesWe see scope for MKTX to be an in favor cyclical with secular tailwinds around electronification of fixed income markets with optionality around market share gains if newer initiatives gain traction. The macro environment looks more supportive for MKTX as our economists and strategists expect slower economic growth, higher core inflation and lagging impact of restrictive trade policy, which could boost credit volumes and demand for MKTX's protocols as PMs likely trade more and move up in credit quality in such an environment. We see further upside potential, that's not in the price, to the extent MKTX can continue to boost market share as a result of a continued product development and protocol initiatives. We see early progress on new initiatives and new innovation that should pave way for continued fixed-income markets electronification.
