How things changed...
Not surprising. All banks have too many branches these days with traffic in branches having dropped substantially as more and more Americans bank on-line and now use their phones to deposit checks rather than at the teller windows in branch banks. And, a lot of banks are restructuring, consolidating and downsizing branches to meet more current trends. Wells Fargo probably had more retail branches than anyone and consolidation is good for shareholders.
U.S. banks close record number of retail banks Wells Fargo shutters most.
U.S. banks closed a record number of retail branches in 2021.
On net, U.S. banks shuttered 2,927 branches last year, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence data.
Wells Fargo was the top net branch closer in 2021, closing on net 267 retail locations.

Even I am a bit surprised, I had this at $60 this year but have since raised my number to $65.
Being UP over $2 today in a down market is excellent sign from the big money players.
Care to share your source?
OK thanks..I have a load here and trusts for my kids...I'll stick around with for awhile...
Banks will be great next year imo.
In fairness to the analysts and not knowing when they made their projections. I can assure you that I do not talk to hear myself talk, nor do I provide unverified information when I do talk. I do not own the stock, have not sold it short, or anything of the like. This is not gossip or rumors. I was provided with copies of the actual filings that provided the allegations to read for myself. True or not true, I do not know. However, the allegations have been made in court filings.
LMAO! what is the factual basis for these representations? Do you have any evidence you can point us to which would back up these allegations?
HMMM...weird..several analysts have it at $60.
JHD
In my opinion, WFC will likely soon plummet in similar fashion to Enron and World Com. Reports are that there are court filings showing Wells Fargo's past, quite possibly is still VERY much present. Apparently, they haven't stopped what they were doing, they just changed the way they were doing it. That asset cap aint getting lifted anytime soon. Oh, and those under deferred prosecution til 2023 might be getting a knock on the door soon from the fine individuals who wear "letters" on their jackets.
WFC fined $250,000,000 for ripping off customers. And the stock goes up. What kind of Wall Street bull shit is that.
WFC getting owned lately. almost re-entered this today, but I can wait a little longer
ROTFLMFAO!! +3.98% today. No dumping anywhere. And, the change in beneficial ownership involved far more shares purchased than sold. Obviously the exercise of an option or something else.
Wow! Huge blocks being dumped! Run

Buy enough to get free shipping.
Then file in Federal court for Extortion!
To add to my post I just was mailed from CFNA Bank now saying my Firestone revolving credit account I have had over 20 years, we realized you have not used our credit card in 4 years, and unless you use it within 60 days, we will cancel that credit card account you have with us !!
All Central Banks are going to crash. The reset failed and their grabbing at straws. The reset has now backfired on central banks as they are who will be phased out and replaced with the Quantum Financial System backed by gold. This is why Central Banks are buying up gold but that will be what breaks the bank. The shorting days will come to a head and they will be the ones who finish themselves off. Soon margin calls will require gold to cover margin calls where the fiat dollar will not be accepted. This is where banks will fall overnight. Then if they don't have gold to cover the margin call, their assets will be seized and sold off.
This is all a part of Nesara Gesara and that will be the the reset that liquidates banks. Banks will begin to merge to attempt to preserve their balance sheet but will be too late with no bail out coming.
National Banks and Credit Unions will replace Central Banks who have kept the public hostage for far to long.
Yes and BOTH headquartered here in CHarlotte, NC !!!
Because of Elizabeth Warren's comment about WFC cancelling Lines of Credit. Local Charlotte, NC news ran story early here as well as that is WFC HQ, and they are closing everyone's LOC's and given 60 days to pay off those balances as fixed rate loans (interest rate higher than LOC).
This same damn thing happened to our business couple years ago whereas First Citizens Bank (Hickory, NC branch) where we had ongoing revolving LOC for our business, always in good standing, they decided one year to not renew that LOC and canceled it, saying "we don't think you need that any longer and only gave you originally that to help you establish better".. ??
We went to Federal Banking Commission then, which shot it back to State of NC Banking Commission, then to Law firm for First Citizens Bank, stating they can do what they want, irregardless what happened to our credit score by doing so !! We only had like $2,000.00 outstanding at time they closed that LOC for our business. They gave fixed rate loan to pay that balance off but interest rate 3 times higher which we argued was fraud! After 90 days time, it went to a Promissory Note by FCB, at the old LOC rate, but we paid the entire balance off right away anyway. But, during that 90 days of dispute, we paid each month on said LOC which payments showed posted and applied on their bank site even! Yet, each month FCB reported to credit bureaus we were in default of a loan!!! Not right at all.
Banks are crooks and the laws protect them, and here in NC, where we were classified "critical essential" even by Governor Cooper initially due to State Covid shutdown to be out there working 24/7 in our communities, still to date, we see no SBA loan PPP monies at all either, and it is as if they want small businesses to fail! We survive daily, yet go against the grain regularly it seems. We have tons of loyal customer base too commercial & residential.. And my office manager has worked over a year with SBA getting only runaround until recently, one agent told us in confidence, it is because we are a white owned business is why we are not seeing any PP funds !!
This is all bullshit any longer out there. We are the backbone of the Country and being forced into submission and out of business out there .
I've seen this before! In July and August of 2008!
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/08/wells-fargo-is-shutting-down-all-personal-line-of-credit-accounts-.html
we'll see. I bought some financials simply for rising rate play into the fall and 2022.
rates cant go any lower
wise move, considering todays news. DivvyX2 and buyback.
WFC added 2000 for $48-$51 price target exit
yes. this is my passion.
are you in everything? lol Everywhere I go, there you are. I got 700+ shares from my Mom's estate in late 2019. I think it was around 53 at that time, but dropped like a rock by the time the estate was settled, going as low as $22 I considered adding more at that time. Wish I had. ;o)
Sr. Executive Vice President Dumping massive position. Run!
Banks being sold off like they do with steel stocks. lol
$WFC went full Racist now targeting teenage kids.
It's almost over for these scam central banks. The public needs to protect their savings by closing out their accounts before it's too late and there is no bank.
Wells Fargo and Bank of America busted for helping to finance pay day loan predatory loans up to 500%
Watch as $WFC Rip Off Scam Bank Regulatory Issues scamming steel stocks will finish this pig.
Bankers are leaving across the board including scam bank $WFC
Wasn't this loser of a bank in enough shit back in 2018. Nope, these dirt ball bankers continued to rip off markets.
Regulators seen enough and why top brass is getting out. These deep state crooks say they're leaving to pursue other things when top execs are really going to Gitmo for quarantine purposes.
Central deep state banks have ripped off U.S. markets for over $100 Trillion the past 15 years and are caught with their pants down as many under the Nesara Act are currently being rounded up to tour the massive additions and expansions at Gitmo.
The U.S. Military white hats and allied forces are in charge. Even Prime Minister Justin Trudeau from Canada has been replaced.
There is no place to run.
You're an alarmist! You must be fun at partys! lol
Wells-Fargo's head of regulatory affairs is reportedly leaving
The financial reset is a disaster and failure. Many bankers know what's coming and are leaving in droves.
The 50 year old Fiat system is a wash and will soon be replaced with a Quantum financial system eliminating the old broken down system with no wars to hedge against.
It's over with a new beginning getting rid of the Central Banks based on debt and ushering in National Banks with a Quantum system based on worth.
All in my opinion but the writing is on the wall.
National Banks and Credit Unions are popping up everywhere.
WFC @50 with now Problem. Banks are an all out Buy. CNBC is all over it.
Absolutely, WFC is pumping it's own failing bank in a last ditch effort to stay alive with no reset in sight.
These West Central Banks have run out of gas with interest rates disappearing with no reset going forward and will crash the conglomerate.
Relying on repos and shorting value stocks to stay alive is about to cost them dearly.
Short candidate going forward will soon become reality to most Central bankers who have run out steam to even push the pump.
All Central Banks will soon feel the pain of the New Quantum era taking control and retiring the Fiat System petrol dollar.
Let’s Rocket to the @50 bench Mark !! WFC Bullish sediment !!! In effect!!!!
Possible 4 for 1 stock split !!! Rumor is out.
The walls are falling down on Central Banks. The reset will be to a Quantum financing system backed by gold. The Central Bank is being phased out with the scam fiat petrol dollar becoming worthless.
Wells Fargo downgraded at UBS as recent rally erases P/E discount
UBS lifted Wells Fargo & Company price target from $40 to $47.
It’s coming !!! $$$$$$$$$$$$$ !!!!!
Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) Price Target Raised to $53.00
Posted by ABMN Staff on May 18th, 2021
Wells Fargo & Company logoWells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) had its target price boosted by analysts at Compass Point from $46.00 to $53.00 in a research note issued on Tuesday, The Fly reports. The brokerage currently has a “buy” rating on the financial services provider’s stock. Compass Point’s target price points to a potential upside of 10.65% from the stock’s current price.
WFC has been the subject of several other reports. UBS Group reiterated a “buy” rating and set a $40.00 target price on shares of Wells Fargo & Company in a research note on Wednesday, April 14th. Oppenheimer reiterated a “hold” rating on shares of Wells Fargo & Company in a research note on Tuesday, January 19th. Argus boosted their price target on shares of Wells Fargo & Company from $37.00 to $47.00 in a report on Thursday, April 15th. Robert W. Baird boosted their price target on shares of Wells Fargo & Company from $41.00 to $46.00 and gave the company an “outperform” rating in a report on Thursday, April 15th. Finally, Jefferies Financial Group boosted their price target on shares of Wells Fargo & Company from $37.00 to $45.00 and gave the company a “buy” rating in a report on Friday, April 9th. Nine analysts have rated the stock with a hold rating, fourteen have issued a buy rating and one has given a strong buy rating to the company. The stock has a consensus rating of “Buy” and a consensus price target of $41.96
Just wait until the asset growth cap is lifted. Hell, $55.
"Aside from cutting expenses, Wells Fargo is still suffering from the asset cap the Fed put in place after several scandals became obvious in 2016. This asset cap clearly limited Wells Fargo’s ability to grow in the last few years. For several years, Wells Fargo’s balance sheet was limited to $1.95 billion.
While this is certainly not the only reason Wells Fargo underperformed its peers, it certainly contributed to the underperformance. But we can also assume, the asset cap will be lifted at some point in the future. In February 2021, it was reported that the Federal Reserve accepted Wells Fargo’s plan to overhaul its governance functions. And this is a key step for Wells Fargo to be released from regulatory restrictions."
