Morgan Stanley has taken new rating actions on financial exchanges and brokers as markets face heightened uncertainty. The investment bank highlighted concerns over economic growth, sticky inflation, and interest rate paths. Recession fears and tariff-induced volatility have also rattled investor confidence.
According to Morgan Stanley, such conditions increase the need for hedging, trading, and risk management by corporations and asset owners. The note added that the recent market sell-off may discourage retail investor activity, especially as portfolio losses and margin calls mount.
Despite these challenges, Charles Schwab (NYSE: SCHW) received an upgrade to Overweight. The firm cited Schwab’s more stable earnings profile and strong fundamentals. Morgan Stanley sees a 20% annual EPS growth for Schwab over the next two years. The bank also noted Schwab’s resilience amid the volatile macro environment.
Technical Analysis
Charles Schwab's stock is showing strength despite the broader market downturn. Price action recently formed an inverted Head and Shoulders pattern. This is aligned with an ascending trendline that dates back several months.
Currently, SCHW is testing a solid horizontal support level that confluences with the trendline near $70. If momentum remains strong, the next potential target is $84, the high from February 2025. The bullish chart formation, combined with Morgan Stanley’s upgrade, supports a possible price surge from the current level.
