Bulls say / Bears say

Schwab's second-quarter momentum was unusually strong: revenue reached a record $7.1bn, adjusted earnings per share rose 42% year on year, and core net new assets rose 49%. That gives the shares a higher current earnings base than a simple market-recovery story. (Charles Schwab)
Growth continued into August, when core net new assets reached a monthly record of $64.8bn and total client assets rose to $13.41tn. New brokerage accounts and margin balances also increased, suggesting that the second-quarter surge was not immediately fading. (Charles Schwab)
Schwab is building a broader fee engine: asset management and administration fees grew 16% to $1.8bn in the second quarter, while managed-investing net flows grew 53%. Its RIA custody business also held $5.74tn of assets, supporting deeper and potentially more recurring client relationships beyond trading. (Charles Schwab, Financial Planning)
Net interest revenue still made up nearly half of second-quarter revenue, leaving earnings exposed to rate cuts, cash sorting and higher funding costs. The 3.00% net interest margin improved, but a spread-driven model has less room for disappointment if that margin narrows. (The Motley Fool, Charles Schwab)
Management raised 2026 expense-growth guidance to 9.5%–10.5%, versus the earlier underlying range of 5.5%–6.5%, partly because of client-volume costs and Forge. If revenue momentum cools, those investments could weaken operating leverage. (Investing.com)
Recent arbitration rulings ordered Schwab to pay $4.5m over complex products and nearly $1.34m over a crypto-related transfer dispute. The sums are small relative to earnings, but repeated client-protection cases could increase compliance costs and damage trust. (InvestmentNews)
