Over the last five years, Bank of America delivered a total shareholder return of 102.38%, including dividends. This longer-term performance places the current share price movement in perspective. The recent short-term rise of 13% aligns with a broader market trend, yet BAC still underperformed the US Banks industry return of 25.7% over the past year. Analysts' average price target of US$48.57 suggests a potential upside of 15.9% from the current share price of US$40.84, reflecting the anticipated earnings growth and share repurchase strategies.
