Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Second-quarter 2026 profit rose 17%, with consumer spending and business cash flows strong.
  • Wealth assets reached $2.4 trillion in 2Q26, lifting fees and advisor productivity.
  • Average deposits rose 10% and loans 12% year over year, supporting net interest income.

What critics are saying

  • Severance and restructuring still hit earnings; 2026 expenses stay near $55.7 billion.
  • The 2018-2020 sales-practices scandal still defines Wells Fargo's reputation with regulators and candidates.
  • Investment-banking expansion faces JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs, risking talent-poaching costs and weak returns.

What makes Wells Fargo unique

  • Asset-cap removal in 2025 freed Wells Fargo to grow balance sheet again.
  • Charlie Scharf rebuilt the bank since 2019, ending all outstanding consent orders.
  • Wells Fargo is pushing AI and Advisor Gateway to deepen cross-sell and productivity.

Wall Street's biggest banks pour billions into AI with mixed results on returns

Wall Street's largest banks are investing billions in AI, though questions persist about returns on these massive expenditures. JPMorgan leads with a nearly $20 billion annual technology budget, claiming its $2 billion AI investment has already matched costs in savings. The bank tracks how its engineers use AI tools and has deployed its proprietary platform to over 200,000 employees. Goldman Sachs spent $6 billion on technology this year, whilst announcing AI-driven efficiency measures that will slow hiring and reduce some roles. Citigroup takes a bottom-up approach with 4,000 employees trained as AI stewards, reporting nearly 90% staff usage of AI tools. Wells Fargo and Bank of America are also deploying AI across operations, from wealth advisory to code development. Morgan Stanley's partnership with OpenAI saved developers over 280,000 hours in the first half of last year. Despite widespread adoption, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon noted banks don't "uniquely benefit from AI" since everyone now uses it.

Wells Fargo sets $700 Microsoft price target as Azure tops $100B revenue

Wells Fargo analyst Michael Turrin has set the highest Microsoft price target on Wall Street at $700, up from $650. The firm had previously cut its target to $625 in July amid concerns over AI infrastructure spending. The reversal came after Microsoft's 29 July earnings report showed Azure crossing $100 billion in annualised revenue, growing 43% in constant currency. Microsoft reported adjusted earnings per share of $4.74 on revenue of $90.01 billion, beating consensus estimates. Turrin maintained his Overweight rating, arguing Microsoft's enterprise AI leadership and corporate software dominance justify a premium valuation. The target implies roughly 39% upside from the current stock price of $503.81. The average analyst target across 35 firms sits at $562.
