MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

State Street
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in State Street Co.:

  • State Street Co. recently reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $3.69 per share, which narrowly exceeded the consensus estimate of $3.68, demonstrating the company's ability to deliver bottom-line results that meet or exceed Wall Street expectations despite broader market challenges.
  • The company's revenue increased by 12.9% year-over-year to approximately $4.00 billion, indicating strong top-line growth and broad-based expansion across its various business segments, which supports the sustainability of its earnings power.
  • With the stock currently trading at $165.54, State Street Co. offers a compelling valuation profile, highlighted by a price-to-earnings-growth ratio of 0.79, which suggests the stock may be undervalued relative to its expected earnings growth rate compared to other financial peers.
  • Analyst sentiment remains largely positive, with a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" and an average price target of $190.62, implying significant potential upside from the current price level as institutions continue to view the asset manager favorably.
  • State Street Co. maintains a consistent dividend yield of 2.22%, providing income-oriented investors with a reliable cash flow component that complements the potential for capital appreciation in the stock price.

State Street
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in State Street Co. for these reasons:

  • Despite the earnings beat, State Street Co. reported third-quarter revenue of $4.00 billion, which fell short of the consensus estimate of $4.03 billion, leading to a significant drop in the stock price and raising concerns about the breadth of the company's earnings growth.
  • Several major financial institutions have recently lowered their price targets, including Citigroup reducing its target from $212.00 to $190.00 and Truist Financial cutting its target from $190.00 to $171.00, reflecting a more cautious outlook on the company's near-term valuation and growth prospects.
  • Market commentary suggests that favorable macroeconomic tailwinds may be fading, which could slow down market-sensitive revenue growth and limit further upside for State Street Co. as the broader economic environment becomes less supportive for asset management fees.
  • There is a pending investigation into potential securities-law violations, which introduces legal and regulatory risk that could distract management, result in potential fines, or negatively impact investor confidence in the company's governance and compliance practices.
  • Recent insider activity shows a pattern of selling, with executives such as CEO Ronald P. O'Hanley and EVP W. Bradford Hu selling significant blocks of shares in July 2026, which some investors may interpret as a lack of confidence in the stock's immediate future performance.
