Bank of America halves FICO price target, stock falls below $600 amid mortgage scoring changes

Bank of America cut Fair Isaac's (FICO) price target from $1,400 to $700 and downgraded it to Neutral, yet the stock still dropped below $600. This follows regulatory changes by the Federal Housing Finance Agency that put VantageScore on equal footing with FICO for mortgage pricing, removing FICO's previous advantage. Major lenders like Rocket Mortgage are already favoring VantageScore, threatening FICO's mortgage revenue growth which heavily depends on pricing power. Investors await clarity on the new pricing grid's implementation and lender adoption before FICO's stock can recover.

While Bank of America cut Fair Isaac's price target and the stock fell below $600, BAC itself trades at $53.60 as of Oct 01, 2026 23:32 WIB on Pluang, down 1.52% for the day. BAC's current price is closer to its 52-week low of $46.72 than its high of $64.81, reflecting some pressure in the financial sector. The stock sees a typical hold time of 127 days on Pluang, with most orders leaning towards selling (85% Sell / 15% Buy).
