** RBC Capital Markets ("outperform," PT: $100) says Wells Fargo is well capitalized and stands to benefit from capital relief under the Basel III re-proposal.

** KBW ("market perform," PT: $94) says while co's shares continue to be influenced by the shifting expectations for net interest income and margin, with improvement in margin visibility in H2 2026, WFC's discount to peers will begin to narrow.
