Bank of America rated Strong Buy with 26% upside to $78 on strong earnings and undervaluation.

Bank of America is rated a Strong Buy with a price target of $78, implying a 26% upside from the current $62. The bank's strong earnings growth is driven by rising net interest income, stronger fee businesses, operating leverage, and aggressive share buybacks. In Q2 2026, revenue rose 15% year-over-year, net income increased 27%, and return on tangible common equity reached 17%, with growth across all major segments. Despite a forward P/E of 13.41x, its forward EPS growth of 18.11% and PEG ratio of 0.86 suggest it is undervalued compared to peers, making it an attractive investment opportunity.
