Performance & Momentum
Synchrony Financial under pressure on credit rate cap proposal
Synchrony Financial (SYF), listed on the NYSE, faces pressure on its shares following former President Trump's proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. While experts consider this measure nearly impossible to implement, it has nonetheless impacted the company's valuation, resulting in a notable decline of over 10% in its share price over the past month. Despite this challenging regulatory environment, RBC Capital remains optimistic, raising its price target to $91 and maintaining a Sector Perform rating, anticipating seasonal loan growth and improved credit quality by 2026.
