- Tuesday, April 17, 2012, 5:35 PM Notable earnings after Wednesday's close: AXP, CCK, CVBF, CYS, EBAY, FFIV, LRCX, MAR, NE, QCOM, SLM, STLD, SWK, VMW, WLT, YUM Comment! [Earnings]
- Friday, April 13, 2012, 2:36 PM Better than expected earnings may not be helping JPMorgan (JPM) shares, but as one of the largest U.S. credit card issuers, Citi analysts think its positive trends bode well for issuers. JPM's Y/Y growth rate of card spending is moving up and Q2 charge-offs are expected to improve, apparently "a sold read through" for V +1.5%, MA +1.7% and AXP -0.9%. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
- Friday, April 13, 2012, 10:00 AM The CFPB proposes reversing a ban on high credit card sign-up fees that caps the amount an issuer can charge at 25% of the card’s limit during its first year of use. The agency appears to be backing down from an ongoing legal battle over ways issuers sidestep the current regulation. 2 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, April 11, 2012, 2:23 PM American Express (AXP +1.3%) shares are higher as Barclays boosts its target price by $10 to $70, ~23% above current levels. The firm thinks AXP will earn $1.03/share when it reports Q1 earnings next week, $0.03 above consensus, and says the market its underestimating AXP’s expense leverage and the feasibility of its 8% long-term revenue growth target. Comment! [Financials]
- Thursday, March 29, 2012, 7:34 AM American Express (AXP) is downgraded to Market Perform at Wells Fargo, with the price target raised from $52-57 to $60-64. It's a strict valuation call, with Wells saying the current price of $59 and a price target of $60-64 doesn't warrant an Outperform. Shares -1% premarket. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Monday, March 26, 2012, 3:18 PM American Express (AXP +2.2%) confirms a new repurchase program of 150M shares worth of its common stock and says it will raise its dividend payout by 11% to $0.20 per share. AXP now trades with a 1.23% yield. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 13, 2012, 4:51 PM After passing its stress test, American Express (AXP) decides to authorize a $4B stock repurchase program and raise its dividend payout by 11.1% to $0.20/share. Shares +0.8% AH. Comment! [Financials]
- Wednesday, March 7, 2012, 10:51 AM Groupon (GRPN -2.8%) is selling off, and the culprit might be a deal between American Express (AXP) and Twitter. The deal allows AmEx cardholders with Twitter accounts to have retail discounts automatically loaded onto their cards after making tweets with specific hashtags. Initial partners for the program include Best Buy, McDonald's, and Whole Foods. (yesterday) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 6, 2012, 1:14 PM Green Dot (GDOT -6%) sells off after it's learned American Express (AXP) is trialing the sale of its Bluebird prepaid cards at Wal-Mart. AmEx's card could represent competition for Wal-Mart's MoneyCard, which is managed by Green Dot courtesy of a contract that runs through May 2015. Jefferies is defending Green Dot, stating it believes Bluebird features a variety of fees. Comment! [Financials, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, March 5, 2012, 6:25 PM American Express (AXP), trying to expand beyond its affluent customer base, is testing the sale of prepaid cards in ~180 Wal-Mart (WMT) stores on the West Coast. Prepaid cards are like traditional debit cards but typically are not tied to a checking account; the move is a recognition that more consumers are trying to avoid using credit and move towards debit. Comment!
- Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 11:02 AM American Express (AXP -0.6%) launches a Facebook app that will allow users to pay each other for free on the social networking site. The new service will compete directly with PayPal's (EBAY -1.5%) app that was launched last fall. 1 Comment [Tech, Financials]
- Monday, February 27, 2012, 10:52 AM Banks could double their payouts to shareholders in dividends and buybacks this year, Credit Suisse analysts say, potentially more fuel ahead for the YTD rally in bank stocks. Of financial firms to be stress tested, CS thinks the best positioned to increase payouts are AXP, STT, USB, JPM and GS; it also expects the Fed to allow greater payout ratios at regional banks. Comment! [Financials]
- Wednesday, February 15, 2012, 4:41 PM American Express (AXP) says the rate its customers defaulted on their cards fell again in January, and late payments remained steady. AmEx continues to have the lowest charge-off rate in the industry, as its customer base is more affluent and it maintains tight control on problem accounts. Delinquency rates held steady at major U.S. banks. Comment! [Financials]
- Thursday, January 19, 2012, 4:26 PM More from AXP's Q4 report: Provisions for losses were $409M vs. last year's $239M. Credit indicators at "historically low levels." U.S. Card Services earned $727M, up $27M from last year; provisions for losses there at $269M, up $111M from last year. Comment! [Earnings, Financials]
- Thursday, January 19, 2012, 4:20 PM American Express (AXP): Q4 EPS of $1.01 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $7.7B (+7% Y/Y) misses by $0.2B. Shares -1.2% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Financials]
- Thursday, January 19, 2012, 12:10 AM Notable earnings after Thursday's close: ASBC, AXP, COF, ED, EWBC, FLEX, GOOG, IBM, INTC, MSFT, PBCT, SWKS 2 Comments [Earnings]
