Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) shares are trading lower by 5.7% to $42.95 Tuesday afternoon as fears surrounding U.S. tariffs on Mexico and Canada added to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44118620/whats-driving-markets-tuesday">broader market uncertainty</a>. 
What To Know: President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/03/44098232/markets-tank-after-trump-confirms-more-tariffs-heres-what-wall-street-is-saying">firm stance</a> against further trade negotiations has heightened concerns about economic growth, a key factor affecting the bank's lending and investment operations.
As one of the largest U.S. banks, Bank of America relies heavily on interest income, which makes up over 50% of its total revenue. With the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UTEN">10-year Treasury yield</a> dropping to 4.16% Tuesday, the bank faces a potential squeeze on its net interest margin, the spread between lending rates and deposit costs. 
Lower yields typically reduce the profitability of new loans, especially in the mortgage and corporate lending segments. Additionally, trade disruptions could weaken business confidence, leading to slower loan demand from commercial clients. 
Additionally, a weaker economy may also increase credit risk, potentially forcing Bank of America to raise loan loss reserves, further pressuring earnings.

Investors can gain exposure to BAC by investing in the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NASDAQ">XLF</a>).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy BAC Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Bank of America case, it is in the Financials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, BAC has a 52-week high of $48.08 and a 52-week low of $34.15.

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Experts in banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their comprehensive research involves attending company conference calls and meetings, analyzing financial statements, and engaging with insiders to generate what are known as analyst ratings for stocks.

The Analyst Verdict: Chord Energy In The Eyes Of 11 Experts

Ohio Republican Senator Bernie Moreno is all in with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets">President Trump&#8216;s tariffs</a> on auto imports from Canada and Mexico. He says they&#8217;re worth the pain on the industry because they&#8217;ll help curb the flow of undocumented migrants and illegal drugs into the U.S. 
"Trump's 100% right, and all of us should rally around his demand that our two neighbors step up," Moreno said in an interview last week, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-03/ohio-senator-says-short-term-tariff-pain-worth-it-for-autos?sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a> Bloomberg. "Until they do what they need to do, yes, am I willing to take some amount of short-term pain? Absolutely, 100%.&#8221;
Auto industry leaders have warned that the measures pose significant risks to industry profits, employment and sales as they prepare for higher costs and disruptions to their North American supply chains.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Workers In The Buckeye State</h2>
Ohio, home to nearly 100,000 auto and related industry workers, is the largest U.S. producer of engines and the second-largest producer of transmissions. Automakers with factories in Ohio include General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) and Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>). The Goodyear Tire &amp; Rubber Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GT#NASDAQ">GT</a>) is based in Ohio.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Tariffs Take Effect</h2>
&#8220;The tariffs are all set,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44103406/us-stocks-futures-tumble-as-traders-await-trumps-congress-address-volatility-is-certainly-being-fed-by-trump-20-moves-says-expert">told reporters</a> on Monday afternoon, saying that there was "no room" for Canada or Mexico to negotiate further delays. &#8220;They go into effect tomorrow.&#8221;
The tariffs impose 25% duties on most Canadian and Mexican imports while raising Chinese imports to 20%. These measures apply to approximately $1.5 trillion in annual imports, signaling to markets that Trump is willing to leverage economic pressure to generate revenue and boost domestic manufacturing jobs, noted the outlet.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Moreno Wants To Repeal Emissions Rules</h2>
Moreno, who was a luxury car dealer in Cleveland before entering politics, recently introduced legislation backed by GM, Stellantis, and Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) that would repeal emissions rules and give tax breaks to car manufacturers by loosening fuel economy and clean-air regulations.
The GOP Senator, who contends that U.S. auto manufacturing has been under attack from inconsistent regulations, foreign competition and misguided federal policies, said his bill would give automakers greater flexibility and long-term stability, <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/02/us-sen-bernie-moreno-introduces-bill-to-repeal-emissions-rules-give-tax-breaks-to-automakers.html">according</a> to Cleveland.com. 
Moreno&#8217;s bill also proposes a 200% tax deduction on autoworker wages, contingent on employers meeting specific criteria, which he argues could help offset the financial strain of tariffs.

Trump's 25% Tariffs On Auto Imports Are Worth The 'Short-Term Pain,' Says Ohio GOP Senator

On Tuesday, D Boral Capital initiated coverage on Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TVGN#NASDAQ">TVGN</a>), a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech">clinical-stage immunotherapy company.</a>
The company&#8217;s lead pipeline product, TVGN-489, is a SARS-CoV-2-specific therapy.
Tevogen&#8217;s <a href="https://tevogen.com/pipeline/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">pipeline</a> includes preclinical programs targeting Epstein-Barr virus-associated lymphomas (TVGN -930), human papillomavirus-related cervical cancer (TVGN -920), multiple sclerosis (TVGN -601), and HPV-related mouth and throat cancer (TVGN-960).

Analyst Jason Kolbert writes Tevogen stands out by developing off-the-shelf T-cell therapies that address the challenges of traditional treatments.
Its unique technology allows for large-scale production of virus-targeting T cells without gene editing, making the therapies potentially safer, more affordable, and easier to access.
Unlike many competitors relying on complex, patient-specific methods, Tevogen's approach enables broader commercial use.
D Boral Capital has initiated with a Buy rating and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TVGN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast of $10</a>.
Tevogen Bio, in January, received $2 million in non-dilutive grant funding from KRHP LLC (Grantor) with an additional $8 million to be contributed contingent on the Grantor&#8217;s review of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43286431/tevogen-bio-enters-agreement-to-receive-up-to-10-million-of-non-dilutive-grant-funding" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">company&#8217;s activities</a>.
On Monday, Tevogen Bio said it would receive the remaining $8 million in funding from the Grantor before the end of the current fiscal quarter based on the Grantor&#8217;s evaluation of the company&#8217;s progress, particularly in Tevogen Bio&#8217;s artificial <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44086628/tevogen-bio-to-receive-8-million-of-non-dilutive-grant-funding-reiterates-efficient-operations" rel="noreferrer noopener">intelligence effort,&nbsp;Tevogen.AI</a>.
The analyst says, &#8220;With key clinical readouts ahead, an emphasis on operational efficiency, and the potential for industry collaborations, Tevogen represents an emerging leader in next-generation T cell therapies.&#8221;
The analyst also adds that encouraging study results could lead to regulatory talks, new partnerships, and expanded drug approvals. Tevogen&#8217;s technology may also have potential in solid tumors and autoimmune diseases.
Price Action: TVGN stock is up 9.32% at $1.29 at last check Tuesday.

Tevogen Bio's T-Cell Therapy Approach Stands Out, Analyst Sees Strong Potential

The cryptocurrency sector, often unified in its push against traditional financial systems, is facing a deepening rift over President Donald Trump's proposal to create a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44114998/trumps-cabinet-holds-bitcoin-solana-ethereumbut-no-cardano-or-xrp">U.S. strategic reserve of digital assets</a>.
What Happened: Unveiled in early March, the plan as ignited fierce debate over its implications for fiscal responsibility, economic equity, and the very ethos of the crypto movement. 
As Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, simultaneously pursues trillions in spending cuts, the contrast between these policies has sharpened divisions within the industry, pitting advocates of government-backed crypto adoption against those wary of using public funds to prop up volatile, unproven assets.
Trump's announcement, made via Truth Social on Sunday, named five cryptocurrencies—Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), Ripple (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>), Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), and Cardano (CRYPTO: ADAA)—as candidates for the reserve.
According to data from CoinGecko, Bitcoin surged over 20% from the previous week's lows to $92,000 by Monday, with other listed tokens also rallying sharply.
The task force, established via executive order on Trump's Inauguration Day, Jan. 20, aims to cut $1 trillion from the deficit, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/18/musk-trump-interview-fox-news-sean-hannity">according </a>to Musk's statements in a Fox News interview with Sean Hannity on Feb. 25.
DOGE has already claimed $55 billion in savings by Feb. 24, per its official website, targeting programs like USAID and DEI contracts at the Treasury.
Yet, the juxtaposition of these cuts with a plan to buy cryptocurrencies—assets known for wild price swings—has fueled accusations of inconsistency. 
"The overall goal is to try to get a trillion dollars out of the deficit, and if the deficit is not brought under control, America will go bankrupt," Musk told Hannity, a stance that clashes with the reserve's potential costs.
Estimates of the reserve's price tag remain vague, but the Congressional Budget Office projects the federal deficit at $2 trillion for fiscal year 2025. 
Trump has suggested raising the debt ceiling or revaluing gold to fund the purchases, per a CBS News report from Feb. 20, but no concrete mechanism has been legislated.

What Critics Are Saying: Critics argue this could divert billions into assets that, unlike Treasury bonds, lack proven long-term value.
Trump's late Sunday pledge to stockpile Bitcoin alongside Ether, XRP, SOL and ADA led to a sharp climb in the price of Bitcoin, which peaked at $92,000 on Monday.
 However, this created a notable disparity in the CME Bitcoin futures chart, with prices jumping from a Friday close of $84,500 to a Monday opening of $95,300. 
By Tuesday afternoon in Asian markets, this gap had closed as Bitcoin retreated to $83,500, erasing the prior day's gains.
Within the crypto sector, the divide is stark. 
Proponents, including some institutional investors, hail the reserve as a validation of digital assets' role in the global economy. 
The surge in Bitcoin's value post-announcement suggests a boon for early adopters, many of whom are affluent holders. 
However, dissenters like Samson Mow, CEO of JAN3, have slammed the inclusion of altcoins like XRP and SOL, arguing it prioritizes enriching specific project founders over national interest. 
"Mow also criticized the selection of assets in the reserve, arguing it was designed to enrich specific projects rather than serve a national purpose," according to a <a href="https://x.com/dgwbirch/status/1896444932325351450">report</a>, echoing sentiments on X.
Why It Matters: This tension dovetails with DOGE's spending cuts, which have axed tens of thousands of federal jobs and shuttered agencies like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, per TIME's Feb. 13 overview.
The irony isn't lost on critics: a government slashing discretionary spending—$1.8 trillion in 2024, per Al Jazeera—might redirect funds to speculative assets.
"Trump has promised not to cut either Social Security or Medicare… If that promise holds, it narrows DOGE's options for cutting spending by $1 trillion," Al Jazeera <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/25/how-the-us-spends-taxpayer-money-as-musk-led-doge-seeks-cuts">noted</a>, highlighting the fiscal tightrope.
The reserve's beneficiaries, critics contend, would be a select few—namely, wealthy crypto investors—while taxpayers shoulder the risk.
Legal hurdles loom large. 
DOGE's access to Treasury data has already sparked lawsuits, with a federal judge blocking it on Feb.8 per BBC News, citing privacy concerns.
The reserve would likely require Congressional approval, a process experts deem uncertain given the GOP's slim House majority and Senate dynamics, as PBS News reported on Feb. 8.
"It's not clear how much in savings can be achieved without Congress codifying it in law," said Douglas Elmendorf, former CBO director, in the PBS piece.
What&#8217;s Next: As of today, the crypto sector remains split.
Posts on X reflect growing unease, with users like author Dave Birch questioning the reserve's intent, while market data shows holders reaping immediate gains. 
For DOGE advocates, the reserve undermines their fiscal hawkishness; for crypto idealists, it betrays the decentralized dream.
With Bitcoin hovering at $83,500 and legislative battles ahead, Trump's plan has exposed a fault line that may redefine both crypto's future and America's fiscal priorities.

In the current market session, Realty Income Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>) stock price is at $57.51, after a 0.07% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 7.65%, and in the past year, by 11.51%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741113954_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Realty Income P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Realty Income has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 109.64 of the Retail REITs industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741113954_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
