Barclays' third-quarter earnings fell short of expectations, with a 4% profit before tax miss driven by weaker income in trading and banking fees. Despite this, UBS and RBC Capital Markets continue to recommend buying Barclays shares, citing attractive valuation and potential for shareholder returns through dividends and buybacks. UBS lowered its price target slightly, while RBC maintained its target and expects profitability to improve through 2028. The banks highlight challenges in meeting full-year income targets but remain optimistic about the bank's long-term prospects.
