Wells Fargo Raises Bank of America Price Target to $67 Following Strong Earnings

Key Facts

1Wells Fargo raised its price target for Bank of America from $65.00 to $67.00 while maintaining an overweight rating.

Amid sustained strength in the U.S. banking sector, Wells Fargo has raised its price target for Bank of America (BAC) from $65.00 to $67.00 while maintaining an overweight rating. This upward revision follows the bank's robust earnings report, which featured an EPS of $1.11 on revenue of $30.27 billion, both exceeding market expectations. The new target implies a potential upside of 14.2% from current trading levels.

The optimistic outlook reflects growing confidence in the ability of major lenders to deliver sustainable returns, with peers like JPMorgan Chase (JPM) trading at $334.47 and Citigroup (C) at $139.97 per market data (close July 2, 2026). Compared to previous quarters, Bank of America has shown significant resilience in net interest income, mirroring trends seen in Goldman Sachs' recent earnings which highlighted a recovery in investment banking activities.

BAC shares closed at $58.73 (close July 2, 2026), with traders monitoring support levels near the recent daily low of $57.94. As there are no immediate sector-specific catalysts in the upcoming economic calendar, investors will focus on broader macroeconomic data and Fed official commentary to gauge the interest rate trajectory and its impact on the bank's future profit margins.
