The Dividend Daily

Normura Securities analysts raised the price target for JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) from $46 to $47 on Monday.

The financial services giant currently has a “Buy” rating by Normura Securities. The analysts were encouraged by JPMorgan’s third quarter earnings report.

Analyst Glenn Schorr said, “All in, we think it’s a good quarter for JPM and other banks should see similar benefits, but after a good 3Q run-up, stocks have pulled back some as investors see continued headwinds and limited earnings lift near term (we think JPM is better than most).”

The new price target of $47 is a $5.38, or 12.9%, increase from Friday’s closing price of $41.62.

JP Morgan’s share price was mostly flat in morning trading on Monday.
