Bank of America Slips Despite Truist Price Target Increase
Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) shares slipped 0.5% on Friday even as Truist Financial raised its price target on the banking giant to $64 from $61, while maintaining a *Buy* rating.
The higher target reflects Truist's confidence in Bank of America's earnings outlook, supported by its strong consumer banking franchise, improving net interest income prospects, and resilient capital position. The reaffirmed Buy rating signals the firm's expectation that the bank remains well-positioned to benefit from a favorable operating environment.
Although the stock ended Friday slightly lower, the analyst's price target increase underscores continued optimism about Bank of America's long-term growth potential. With the new target implying meaningful upside from current levels, Wall Street remains constructive on the bank's outlook despite recent market weakness.
