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.
