BofA Securities analyst Craig Siegenthaler revised estimates and price forecasts for several broker <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/broker" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">stocks ahead of earnings season</a>.
The analyst writes that a deeper equity market correction poses EPS risks from cash sweep revenues, trading/margin loans, and AUM-based fees.
Siegenthaler expects further NNA slowdowns, especially in higher ROCA retail channel vs. wealth manager, projecting a modest dip in March.
Since the correction happened late in the quarter, most risks will surface in the second quarter instead of the first quarter of 2025, adds the analyst.
Charles Schwab: The analyst projects Charles Schwab Corporation&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) NII to keep rising, regardless of market or rates, as it pays down its costly FHLB/CD borrowings.
He sees a third consecutive quarter of net new asset growth, with a 4.7% estimate, near the low end of the company&#8217;s 5%-7% target.
The analyst reiterated the Underperform rating on the company and lowered the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/schw/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $74 to $66</a>.
Also, Siegenthaler revised EPS estimates for first-quarter FY25 to $1.03 (from $1.01), 2026 to $4.27 (from $4.82) and 2027 to $4.73 (from $5.26) due to the negative impact of a reduced interest rate forecast and lower AUM-based fees.
Meanwhile, the analyst maintains a long-term bullish stance on retail brokers, particularly online brokers like Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>) and Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>), as their valuations and ownership setups have improved post-correction year-to-date.
Siegenthaler continues to view online brokerage as a global secular trend, benefiting from its high-tech, low-cost model, which reaches mass customers at low price points and capitalizes on the demographic shift to digital.
Overall, the analyst maintains the Buy rating on LPL Financial Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPLA#NASDAQ">LPLA</a>), thanks to strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/lpla/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">organic growth and stable ROCA</a>.
Interactive Brokers Group: The analyst reduced the Interactive Brokers Group stock&#8217;s price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ibkr/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecast from $307 to $265</a>.
Siegenthaler forecasts a 3% quarter-over-quarter revenue increase driven by higher trading volumes, with account growth expected to accelerate to 32%.
The analyst lowered first-quarter/2026/2027 EPS estimates to $1.99/$8.90/$10.62, from $2/$10.14/$12.27, respectively due to expectations of lower client engagement and the impact of lower short-term interest rates on net interest income.
Coinbase: Meanwhile, the analyst notes the strong trading levels Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) in the fourth quarter of 2024 were tough to replicate in the first quarter of FY25, with a decline in crypto prices slowing client activity.
As a result, the analyst lowered Coinbase's 2026/27 EPS estimates by over 10% and reduced the price forecast from $311 to $217.
Robinhood Markets: The analyst lowered the stock price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/hood/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">target from $65 to $58</a>.
While Siegenthaler expects Robinhood&#8217;s revenues to rise 44% year-over-year, this still represents a 12% quarter-over-quarter decline due to lower trading.
At Robinhood, the analyst also anticipates higher expenses and a return to a normal 21% tax rate after previously being at 0% or lower since its 2021 listing.
The analyst revised the first-quarter FY25/2026/2027 EPS estimates to 29 cents/$1.49/$1.94, from 43 cents/$1.76/$2.18, respectively, due to a lower interest rate forecast, decelerating trading volumes, higher G&amp;A expenses, and a return to a normal tax rate.
Meanwhile, the analyst remains optimistic about the company&#8217;s long-term growth, driven by business expansion, new product launches, strong client relationships, and market growth both globally (including Singapore) and domestically.

Goldman Sachs analyst Alexander Blostein expects macro and policy uncertainty, volatile equity markets, and declining short-term interest rates to weigh on EPS <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecasts for Capital Markets stocks</a>.
The analyst&#8217;s 2025 estimates are ~5% below consensus on average, except for Exchanges.
Blostein says Alternative Manager stocks face heightened EPS risks due to weaker realization activity (potential 30% downside to Street estimates) and a slower FRE growth trajectory, now expected to average 11% in 2025E,<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/tpg/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> down from ~15% previously</a>.
The analyst writes that Brookfield Asset Management Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAM#NYSE">BAM</a>) appears among the most resilient, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bam/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">benefiting from index inclusion</a>.
While TPG Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPG#NASDAQ">TPG</a>) and KKR &amp; Co. Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>) offer attractive valuations, further EPS estimate revisions may be <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/kkr/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">necessary, adds the analyst</a>.
On the other hand, the analyst says that the Brokers and Wealth Advisor stocks face an average 4%<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/schw/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> downside to 2025/2026 EPS estimates</a>.
Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) is performing better (+5% first-quarter EPS beat), while Stifel Financial Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SF#NYSE">SF</a>) is lagging <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sf/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">(-10% EPS miss), adds the analyst</a>.
Blostein expects lower short-term interest rates, weaker equity markets, and slower Investment Banking activity in 2025 to weigh on EPS, though he anticipates higher cash balances in March and stronger retail engagement to provide some relief.
Meanwhile, the analyst projects Traditional Managers to face ~5% EPS downside in 2025/26, with T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TROW#NASDAQ">TROW</a>) and Janus Henderson Group plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JHG#NYSE">JHG</a>) facing high-single-digits <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/jhg/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">EPS risks in 2025/26.</a>
Blostein expects long-term average AUM to decline ~1% q/q, with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/trow/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">weaker second-quarter momentum</a>.
Fixed Income and Active ETFs show strength, but Active Equities outflows may drive a -2.0% annualized organic decline, adds the analyst.

Shares of several banking and broader financial stocks are trading higher in sympathy with overall market sentiment after the Fed policy decision to keep rates unchanged.

Charles Schwab's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) short percent of float has fallen 26.12% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 16.84 million shares sold short, which is 0.99% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.7 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Charles Schwab Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1742403628_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Charles Schwab has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Charles Schwab's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Charles Schwab's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.32%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
