☆ We are upgrading our rating on Wells Fargo as investors dump stock post-earnings
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-12 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +10 min

Wells Fargo Why we own it : We bought Wells Fargo as a turnaround story under CEO Charlie Scharf. We are more excited by the outperformance of non-interest income than we are disappointed with the miss on net interest income. However, the team added, many of the factors driving net interest income are uncertain heading into the second half of the year. We don't like to see guidance misses, but bank interest income estimates depend on interest rates, which Wells Fargo has no real control over. Non-interest income increased 12% thanks to higher asset-based fees driven by an increase in market valuations.
