BofA Securities analyst Ebrahim H. Poonawala on Monday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/banks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">noted bank stocks</a> have staged a significant rebound versus April lows, led by global systemically important banks (G-SIBs), money center, investment banks and trust banks.
It is unclear to Poonawala whether customer activity during the second half of 2025 will match the optimistic expectations from pre-tariff days, but bank stock performance in recent weeks suggests the market expects an improving operating environment for the second half of 2025 and 2026.
The analyst said large-cap banks are trading at 10-11 times 2026 P/E and 1.6-1.8 times P/TBV (versus mid-teens ROTCEs).

His 3Rs thesis (rates, regulations and rebounding customer activity) is on firmer footing.
Poonawala noted the potential for further upside in bank stocks if the recession is avoided and customer activity picks up steam.
The analyst said dealogic data indicates a significant pick-up in investment banking (specifically ECM) activity over the last week.
Continuation of this trend should serve as a tailwind for capital markets-exposed banks, particularly Goldman Sachs Group, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>), at which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GS/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the analyst expects</a> to see generalist investor interest to own these stocks on rebounding M&amp;A/IPO (same as in the November-February period), resilient trading and secular growth in wealth/private credit.
On wealth, he noted Morgan Stanley&#8217;s recent launch of &#8220;Power E&#x2A;Trade Pro,&#8221; which, in addition to appealing to active traders, offers a significant opportunity to attract advisory assets to the firm.
Poonawala <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">maintained Buy ratings on</a> Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.
While CEO succession discussion on JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) has centered on a handoff from CEO Jamie Dimon to his successor, the analyst noted that any signs (at investor day or over the coming months) that Dimon would stay in his current role as CEO (not just as Executive Chair) for two to three more years would be very bullish for its Buy-rated stock. As he noted, at 69 years old, Dimon is younger than several financial CEOs (such as those at BlackRock and Blackstone) and remains actively engaged in the role.
GS, MS Price Actions: Goldman Sachs stock is down 0.96% at $612.94 at last check Monday. Morgan Stanley is down 0.92 at $130.96%.

Last week, JP Morgan analyst Tien-tsin Huang hosted 17 payments and processing firms at its Global TMC Conference in Boston. Huang had an Overweight rating on BILL Holdings, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BILL#NYSE">BILL</a>) with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BILL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $55</a> on Monday.
Huang noted BILL as a category killer in SMB AP Automation, displacing manual and legacy solutions (including paper check processing).
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44980804/fiserv-delivers-solid-q1-strong-margins-and-client-wins-but-stock-slides" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fiserv Delivers Solid Q1, Strong Margins And Client Wins, But Stock Slides</a>
BILL was once a top growth name in Huang's FinTech coverage, and he sees paths to reclaim that status: cross-selling recent acquisitions, leveraging strong partnerships with banks and accountants, and helping SMBs cut costs through automation.
Huang projected fourth-quarter revenue of $376 million and adjusted EPS of $0.41.
Huang had an Overweight rating on Fiserv, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $210</a>, down from $211.
The analyst liked Fiserv as a dependable growth story, with mid-teens EPS growth driven by double-digit top line, operating leverage, and capital deployment.
According to the analyst, Fiserv has a solid portfolio of assets, including its front-book Merchant product Clover, which is taking share and growing faster than peers and supports Fiserv&#8217;s premium valuation.
Huang projected second-quarter revenue of $5.19 billion and adjusted EPS of $2.39.
Huang upgraded Marqeta, Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MQ#NASDAQ">MQ</a>) rating to Overweight from Neutral, with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MQ/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $6</a>, up from $5.
Marqeta&#8217;s modern card issuer platform powers card programs and breakthrough experiences for users in some of the fastest growth areas of fintech, including BNPL and digital financial services/banking, with high-profile, highly valued clients, including Block and Affirm. 
Huang projected second-quarter revenue of $140 million and adjusted EPS of $(0.05).
Huang had an Overweight rating on Remitly Global, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RELY#NASDAQ">RELY</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RELY/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $25</a>.
Huang sees Remitly as a mission-driven disruptor in the remittance market, gaining a durable share with 34% YTD revenue growth and 4% market penetration. He projects a 21% revenue CAGR through 2027—one of the highest in his coverage—even without new product contributions.
Huang projected second-quarter revenue of $385 million and adjusted EPS of $0.19.
Price Action: BILL is down 0.41% at $46.07 at last check Monday.

Galaxy Digital Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLXY#NASDAQ">GLXY</a>) shares are trading higher Monday. The stock is seeing continued momentum following its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45465955/ark-invest-takes-swipe-at-mstr-mara-says-bitcoin-treasury-companies-dont-make-sense-funding-purchases-with-debt-seems-like-a-recipe-for-disaster">uplisting to the Nasdaq on Friday</a>.
What To Know: Galaxy Digital, founded by billionaire Mike Novogratz, began trading on the Nasdaq on Friday under the ticker symbol &#8220;GLXY.&#8221; The stock has traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange since 2020, as well as on OTC markets. Shares opened for trading at $23.50 on the U.S. exchange and rallied before pulling back and closing at $22.90.
The listing follows a lengthy and expensive process with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in which Novogratz went back and forth with regulators and spent more than $25 million, he told <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/16/novogratz-galaxy-digital-trading-nasdaq.html">CNBC</a> ahead of the company&#8217;s Nasdaq debut. 
The company is focused on crypto and AI, &#8220;the two most exciting growth areas in markets,&#8221; according to Novogratz, who emphasized that U.S. markets offer 30 times more exposure than Canadian markets.
According to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-16/novogratz-s-galaxy-is-talking-with-sec-about-tokenizing-shares">Bloomberg</a>, Galaxy Digital is now in talks with regulators about tokenizing the company&#8217;s stock to allow for lending and trading on decentralized-finance applications 24 hours, seven days a week.
Novogratz described Galaxy as a dual business, combining data center infrastructure with a crypto platform. He said on Friday that the market is at the edge of institutional crypto adoption and Galaxy is prepared to scale with that demand.
The listing comes amid renewed interest in crypto-related companies with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45501880/jamie-dimon-opens-jpmorgan-to-bitcoin-access-despite-longstanding-criticism">Bitcoin</a> trading near all-time highs. Investors appear to be responding to the broader shift in sentiment and Galaxy's access to deeper U.S. capital markets. The sharp rise in Galaxy&#8217;s share price reflects that optimism, with the firm now benefiting from higher visibility and investor access on a major U.S. exchange.
&#8220;If we had been in the U.S. markets those four years, we'd be a different company,&#8221; Novogratz reportedly said last week.
GLXY Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/glxy">Galaxy Digital shares</a> were up more than 13% at the time of writing, but had fallen to around $24, up about 5.25% at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Galaxy Digital Stock Is Surging Monday: What's Going On?

Tidal Financial Group today announced that the Board of Trustees of Tidal Trust II (the "Trust") has authorized a reverse stock split of the Defiance Daily Target 2X Short MSTR ETF (Ticker: SMST), listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC. The reverse split is scheduled to take effect after the close of trading on May 22, 2025.
Under the terms of the 1-for-20 reverse stock split, every twenty shares of SMST will be consolidated into one share. This adjustment will reduce the number of shares outstanding by approximately 95%. As a result, both the fund's per-share net asset value (NAV) and opening market price on May 23, 2025, will be adjusted proportionally—approximately twenty times their pre-split values. SMST will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when markets open on May 23, 2025.
This action is designed to optimize the fund's capital structure and enhance its accessibility to a broader base of investors. While the number of shares held will change, the total dollar value of an investor's holdings will remain unaffected. For instance, an investor holding 1,000 shares at a NAV of $10 before the split will own 50 shares at a NAV of $200 after the split—retaining the same $10,000 investment value.

Fomento Economico Mexicano S.A.B. De C.V.

Fomento Economico Mexicano shares are trading higher after the company announced a $250 million accelerated share repurchase agreement.

BofA Securities analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich maintained a Buy rating on Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) last Friday, with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CHTR/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">price target of $450</a>.
Ehrlich noted that Charter had announced an agreement to merge with privately held Cox Communications for an equity purchase consideration of $21.9 billion and the assumption of $12.6 billion in Cox debt and lease obligations.
The $21.9 billion equity consideration is comprised of $11.9 billion in common units, $6 billion notional value in preferred units, and $4 billion in cash, the analyst said.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45465922/charter-seals-34-5-billion-cox-merger-deal-creating-powerhouse-to-battle-streaming-wireless-rivals" rel="noreferrer noopener">Charter Seals $34.5 Billion Cox Merger Deal, Creating Powerhouse To Battle Streaming, Wireless Rivals</a>
The combined entity's pro forma economic ownership will be 67% Charter, 23% Cox, and 10% Advance/Newhouse, according to Ehrlich. She views the $33.9 billion transaction as value accretive, noting it implies a ~6.44x EV/2025E EBITDA multiple before synergies. With $500 million in synergies—likely a conservative estimate—the multiple drops below 6x by year three.
Ehrlich said the deal will expand Charter's reach to 69.5 million passings, 37.6 million customers, and 35.9 million broadband subscribers. It also allows Charter to apply its pricing and packaging strategy across an additional 12.3 million passings and pursue mid-sized commercial and enterprise markets more aggressively.
As per Ehrlich, the deal should not present significant regulatory hurdles and should likely close in mid-2026. The companies do not have overlapping footprints, and 69.5 million passings is only ~5 million larger than Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) (64 million) and also not significantly larger than AT&amp;T Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) (and AT&amp;T also offers nationwide wireless).
Time Warner Cable&nbsp;/Charter deal in 2015/2016 received regulatory approval in less than 12 months, and the environment has become significantly more competitive.
Ehrlich noted that Comcast is unlikely to present a competing bid due to a likely more difficult regulatory path.
The analyst expects the Cox merger to boost revenue growth across broadband, video, and mobile, improve margins, increase free cash flow, and reduce leverage. While integration may pose challenges, Charter's strong execution history and improving broadband and video trends should support EBITDA growth.
CHTR Price Action: At the last check on Monday, Charter Communications stock was down 2.1% to $418.27.

Truist Securities analyst Michael Ciarmoli revised the price forecast on RBC Bearings Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBC#NYSE">RBC</a>) from $375 to $405, while keeping a Buy rating following the fourth quarter FY25 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/rbc/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">results reported on Friday</a>.
The analyst reported adjusted EPS of $2.83 beating the consensus of $2.70, while sales of $437.7 million <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45465327/rbc-bearings-incorporated-announces-fiscal-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">missed the consensus of $440.3 million</a>.
The company expects first quarter sales of $424 million-$434 million&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">versus&nbsp;street view of $437.11 million</a>.
The analyst modestly increased the FY26 industrial revenue projections, considering the company&#8217;s proven ability to outperform the market, but remain somewhat cautious given the current macroeconomic environment.
Ciarmoli assumes that gross margin expansion of approximately 50-110 basis points in FY26 will be largely driven by the Aerospace &amp; Defense (A&amp;D) segment.
The analyst revised FY26 EPS estimates from $10.96 to $11.26 (versus consensus of $11.18) and sees FY26 EPS of $11.98.
Ciarmoli notes that tariff pressures are expected to have a minimal impact, and management believes they possess the ability to mitigate any headwinds.
RBC Price Action: RBC shares are up 2.09% at $375.85 at publication on Monday.

JP Morgan analyst Lisa C. Gill revised her 2025 outlook on GoodRx Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDRX#NASDAQ">GDRX</a>) following the company&#8217;s first-quarter earnings. Gill reaffirmed an Overweight rating on the stock and maintained her $7 price forecast.
The company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45266347/goodrx-reports-first-quarter-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter</a> 2025 revenue of $203 million (above the $202.21 million estimate), up 3% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $69.8 million, with margins improving to 34.4% from 31.7%. Net income came in at $11.1 million, reversing a $1 million loss in the prior year.
Pharma Manufacturer Solutions&#8217; revenue climbed 17%, while subscription revenue declined 7%, primarily due to the phaseout of the Kroger Savings Club.

GoodRx reaffirmed its full-year 2025 revenue outlook of $810-$840 million and raised its adjusted EBITDA forecast to $273–$287 million, compared to $260.2 million in 2024.
The analyst revised her 2025 revenue estimate slightly downward to $817 million (3% year-over-year growth), citing added ~$5 million in Rite Aid (RAD) headwinds, offset by strength in Pharma Manufacturer Solutions and improved margins.
She increased her adjusted EBITDA projection to $279 million (7% growth), with a 135 basis-point margin expansion to 34.2%. Despite a slight increase in sales and marketing expenses in the second half of 2025, margin strength is expected to persist.
Gill noted the trend of pharmacy costs shifting to consumers and the efforts of pharmacies/PBMs to capture abandoned scripts create a favorable environment for GoodRx&#8217;s value proposition.
The analyst anticipates solid growth, execution, and margin expansion with benefits from ISP adoption and increased consumerism in healthcare in 2025 and beyond.
JP Morgan maintained its December 2025 price target of $7, based on a 9x EV/EBITDA multiple on the 2026 forecast of $298 million and a sustained mid-to-high-single-digit EBITDA growth trajectory.
Price Action: GDRX shares are trading lower by 0.88% to $3.93 at last check Monday.

HG Vora Fights in Court to Have Votes for its Third Director Nominee, William Clifford, Counted
Urges Shareholders to Vote for HG Vora's Three Independent Nominees on the GOLD Proxy Card to Send a Clear Message to PENN's Board that Shareholder-Led Change Is Needed
HG Vora Capital Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, "HG Vora") today issued the following statement regarding the acknowledgement buried in PENN Entertainment, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PENN#NASDAQ">PENN</a>) ("PENN" or the "Company") May 19, 2025 letter that it "will continue to consider opportunities to further refresh the Board" after the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on June 17, 2025. On April 25, 2025, PENN's Board unilaterally reduced the number of seats up for election at the Annual Meeting, which HG Vora believes was done to deprive shareholders of their fundamental right to elect three directors of their choosing.
"PENN's statement today reflects its continued and ongoing assault on shareholder rights and demonstrates the lengths this Board will go to entrench itself. PENN's statement suggests that it is going to expand the Board by adding back the seat that it removed last month and unilaterally name a director of its choosing for a three-year term – all after the 2025 Annual Meeting. These self-serving actions have no legitimate corporate purpose and are being done to deprive shareholders of the right to vote or oppose the nomination of a third director. This is simply unacceptable and should not be tolerated.
"HG Vora has nominated a highly qualified third independent director candidate in William Clifford and is now fighting in court for injunctive relief to have all votes for him counted at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, HG Vora filed a motion on May 14, 2025 for expedited relief and a rapid trial in federal court in Pennsylvania, which PENN is opposing. HG Vora did not seek a preliminary injunction so the Board would not have the excuse to delay the Annual Meeting and avoid seating the other two HG Vora-nominated director candidates – Johnny Hartnett and Carlos Ruisanchez.
"Importantly, because of PENN's history of using the corporate machinery to thwart the will of shareholders, and its track record of value destruction, HG Vora believes shareholders should not tolerate such a manipulation of the electoral process and that PENN's Board has forfeited the right to select directors without shareholder input."
HG Vora encourages all shareholders to review its materials, which are available at <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.WinAtPENN.com&amp;esheet=54257095&amp;newsitemid=20250519565617&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.WinAtPENN.com&amp;index=1&amp;md5=b0270f2261de39d9dea98f284d8a9d88">www.WinAtPENN.com</a>.

Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Analysts may enhance their evaluations by incorporating forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, delivering additional guidance to investors. It is vital to acknowledge that, although experts in stocks and sectors, analysts are human and express their opinions when providing insights.
