Citigroup Inc. has garnered a mixed but generally optimistic view from analysts and experts regarding its performance and future potential. Many believe that the company is currently undervalued, trading at a significant discount to its tangible book value, which is expected to compress as it catches up with peers. Analysts are particularly enthusiastic about Citi's recent strong earnings report and the bank's commitment to share buybacks, which have contributed to positive sentiment. The yield curve is becoming increasingly favourable, with expectations of growth and constructive regulatory changes enhancing the outlook for Citigroup. Despite some experts preferring competitors such as JPMorgan Chase, there is a consensus that Citi's turnaround efforts, coupled with cost cuts and a focus on the U.S. market, could lead to considerable upside potential.
Owns several US banks. The yield curve is steepening and the regulatory backdrop is now more favourable to the banks. The post-2008 safeguards have built huge capital in these banks and is starting to be released. Citi trades at a 24% discount to tangible book value which will compress and catch up to peers.
(Analysts’ price target is $90.30)You'll be OK if you have your heart set on this one. He always prefers JPM.
Looks really good at these levels.
Yield curve's in better shape than it's been for a long time. The space will see lots more M&A. Attractive valuation, looking at 23% growth over the next few years and trading at 8x PE.
He's trying to play a quiet offence when he's a bit scared of the markets and tariffs. Cheap, tethered, and insulated. Financials really get a bid from Trump -- tax cuts, less regulation, lots more M&A. Yield curve looking a lot better, upward sloping. Beat Q4, earnings up 40%. Investment banking and market revenue also up. Company's expecting ROE to improve to 10-11% in 2026. Trades under 9x. Very favourable risk/reward. Yield is 2.7%, decent.
Reducing global presence by exiting unprofitable businesses is really helping earnings by lowering costs.
They reported a strong quarter this week, beating top and bottom lines. Sales and trading saw the biggest growth while costs are under control. They gave the most forward looking guidance of the banks this week. Revenue forecast for 2025 was up and they announced a huge $20 billion share buyback.
Banks earnings happen next Wednesday: JPM, Goldman, Wells Fargo and Citi. He expects good reports from all. The expected increase in M&A will benefit all. These stocks are off their highs at very low PEs. He's been buying them.
A story of going from very bad to less bad to good. Selling assets. Trades ~7x, in line with other banks. But growing around 24% CAGR over the forecast horizon 2025-27. Beneficiary of the new Trump trade combined with cost cuts. More growth than either JPM or BAC. Yield is 3%.
Own in a registered account.
Owns this and JPM. Trades at a much cheaper 70% of book vs. JPM's 2x book.
Trades below book value. Going through large restructuring, which can make earnings numbers volatile. So you have to be careful. All banks should do well in next several years with deregulation coming. Yield is ~3.2%.
He prefers BAC or JPM.
Likes the upside potential with strong dividend (downside protection). Yield curve has smooth out - interest rates also falling. Very strong balance sheet with high lending capabilities. Company moving toward reducing global presence - capitalize on the USA. Less regulation under Trump presidency will also help company.
Business has done a great job YTD (~20% share price appreciation this year). Earnings growth this year very good. New CEO doing a good job. Share price has been flat - hard to grow in the USA. Would hold at current share price level. Not buying, or selling.
Because of today's strong jobs report, credit delinquencies won't be as bad as feared, which benefits Citi.
The CEO has done a great job the last 2 years, consolidating it a bit and focusing it to turn around the company. It remains not best in class, though trades at an unheard of 70% of book value. There's upside to earnings. The valuation gap with peers is closing. Likes it overall.
