Analyst projections of the future price of Wells Fargo stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
With the asset cap gone and the final consent order removed, Wells Fargo can now pursue growth across lending and deposits. Management expects 2026 loan growth to beat its earlier mid-single-digit forecast, after average loans rose about 12% year on year in the second quarter. (Reuters, StockAnalysis)
Second-quarter growth was broad rather than dependent on one business. Revenue rose 9%, non-interest income rose 13%, wealth revenue rose 13% and corporate and investment banking revenue rose 16%, giving Wells Fargo several fee-generating routes to offset slower lending income. (Last10K)
The bank is showing operating leverage while investing for growth: second-quarter expenses rose only 2%, return on tangible common equity reached 17.7% and headcount fell 7% year on year. It also repurchased about $7 billion of shares in the first half, supporting per-share returns if earnings remain strong. (MarketScreener)
Loan and deposit growth is not translating cleanly into margins. Investors have noted slight net interest margin compression, while Wells Fargo is adding lower-margin markets activity and maintaining 2026 net interest income guidance rather than raising it. (MarketScreener, American Banker)
Part of the recent earnings strength came from trading and investment banking, including a 24% rise in markets revenue and a 64% jump in equities trading revenue. Those businesses depend on market volatility and deal activity, so a quieter market could make fee growth less consistent. (MarketScreener)
Credit quality is currently good, but faster expansion increases the amount at risk in consumer lending. Average loans rose 12% year on year, consumer charge-offs were still 0.74% annualised and auto losses increased, leaving Wells Fargo more exposed if household conditions weaken. (Last10K, Reuters)
