Analysts' price targets for the next five years vary a lot. Experts with bearish positions say:

• Aggressive Fed policy will cause a credit crunch.

• Borrowers' finance problems will lead to more loan losses.

• Trade and geopolitical tensions will hurt investment.

The bank has a strong customer base and a flexible cost management system. It is unlikely to collapse during the crisis. Analysts do not predict such a development.

The Bulls are building on their strengths:

• The company is a leader in digital banking and benefits from AI and new financial instruments.

• The bank is updating investment products for clients.

• The company can enter new markets through mergers and acquisitions.

The Motley Fool says Bank of America will do better than its rivals. But the platform's experts don't think the company will be one of the top capitalized banks in a few years.

EPS may increase to $3.75 by 2028. In 2023, this indicator was $3.08. Revenue growth is expected to reach $112-$120 bln. In 2023, it was $98.58 bln. These expectations confirm the bullish scenario.

Analysts think 2024 will be mostly good for the bank. Unlike many companies, it benefits from high Fed rates. The problem is the rising credit card charge-off rate. This could lead to the need to increase reserves.

BeatMarket experts don't think bearish expectations are realistic. We're sticking with our moderately optimistic outlook.

Wall Street analysts expect stock market growth. They believe a lower Fed rate will boost the market. Loan delinquencies are also expected to fall, which will help banks.

Some experts think that in 2026, prices will be at the level of the current price. They say this because prices have been going up recently.

The Gov Capital platform's benchmarks seem overvalued. We like the share, but we don't think it will exceed $150.
