Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Core Operating Profit EngineStronger pre-provision net revenue demonstrates a durable core profit engine that can support earnings growth beyond cyclical swings in other businesses.
Credit Quality ImprovementImprovement in aggregate criticized loans reduces credit risk and could help rebuild investor confidence in the bank's asset quality.
Share Repurchases And Capital GenerationActive share repurchases funded by healthy capital generation can support the stock by lowering share count and signaling management's commitment to capital return.
Bears Say
Interest Rate And Yield Curve ImpactA backup in the yield curve and higher rates can pressure net interest margins given reliance on a lower-rate funding profile, which could weigh on profitability.
Mortgage Revenue And Earnings RiskDownside risk to mortgage revenue if rates remain elevated could erode expected earnings per share and limit near-term upside for the stock.
Ongoing Legal And Credit HeadlinesOngoing legal disputes and repeated negative credit headlines create uncertainty that may keep the stock under pressure until outcomes become clearer.
