Posted at 07/5/2025 14:26 by smurfy2001 Barclays attracts fresh anti-Israel protests at shareholder meetingAnother investor called for changes to dividends in place of share buybacks, which he claimed had done little to support retail shareholder confidence in the bank. "It's disgusting to see Barclays struggling to break 3 (pounds)", the investor said. Barclays shares have risen nearly 11% this year to 296 pence, recovering to their level before U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs on April 2 hit bank stocks worldwide. Higgins said he believed the majority of retail investors were more bullish about the lender's prospects, and the executive team was committed to improving the share price. The bank plans to return at least 10 billion pounds of capital to shareholders between 2024 and 2026, through dividends and share buybacks, with a continued preference for buybacks. |
Posted at 21/4/2025 12:32 by johnwise Barclays share price volatility reveals hidden exposure to global trade tensionsBarclays tanked 20% after China hit back at Trump. Despite a bounce, market panic exposed deeper cracks in global banking. Barclays (LSE: BARC) shares suffered a severe 20% plunge earlier this month following China’s retaliatory tariff announcement, which came in response to President Trump’s protectionist “liberation day” speech on April 2nd. Though the stock has since recovered marginally, this volatility reveals deeper vulnerabilities in the UK banking sector’s global exposure. |
Posted at 17/3/2025 17:23 by justalittlemore full-year results have prompted upbeat reactions from analysts, with Deutsche Bank and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods both maintaining their positive outlooks, albeit with different price targets.KBW raised its price target to 380p, noting that the bank delivered a solid set of fourth-quarter results, with profits ahead of expectations. While management’s guidance on banking net interest income for 2025 appeared cautious, the firm believes Barclays is being overly conservative. It expects stronger revenue from its UK banking operations and corporate and investment banking unit, leading to higher earnings forecasts for the next three years. Despite the stock doubling in value over the past year, KBW feels that Barclays is still attractively priced, particularly in a falling interest rate environment. Deutsche also remains confident in the UK lender's prospects, keeping its price target at 350p and reiterating that the stock is one of its top picks among European banks. The firm expects the bank to build on its 2024 return on tangible equity and push beyond 12% in 2026. A key driver is the bank’s structural interest rate hedge, which is expected to reprice favourably. Deutsche Bank also sees potential in Barclays’ efforts to expand market share in corporate and investment banking and improve margins in its United States consumer business. Even if these goals are not fully realised, the analysts argue that the stock remains undervalued. Both firms see Barclays as well-positioned for the years ahead. While some investors were disappointed by cautious guidance for 2025, analysts believe the bank has set itself up for continued growth. The outlook remains positive, with strong shareholder returns and a clear path to higher profitability. |
Posted at 21/2/2025 17:15 by xtrmntr Barclays (BARC) has kicked off earnings season for UK banks with strong profit growth and a £1bn share buyback. Total income in 2024 rose by 6 per cent to £26.8bn and pre-tax profit jumped by almost a quarter to £8.1bn. Interest was responsible for some of this progress. Net interest income – the difference between what Barclays earns on loans and pays out on deposits – edged up by 2 per cent to £12.9bn, helped by structural hedge momentum. The acquisition of Tesco Bank in November also provided an earnings boost.Interest income is just one piece of the puzzle, however. Compared with its UK peers, Barclays has an unusually large investment banking business. This division put in a strong performance in 2024, growing revenue by 7 per cent to £11.8bn. Growth accelerated in the final quarter due to higher banking fees and underwriting income. A similar trend has been noted by US investment banks, which are celebrating the return of dealmaking under President Trump. Barclays's push to cut costs also seems to be paying off. Its cost/income ratio was below target at 62 per cent in 2024, down from 67 per cent in 2023. In order to keep up its capital distributions, the bank has announced a £1bn buyback and a full-year dividend of 5.5p. This takes total distributions for the year to £3bn, and counts towards its aim of returning £10bn of capital to shareholders between 2024 and 2026. This target was announced last February as part of a turnaround strategy.All in all, the results were largely as expected and reflected a year of solid growth. However, the market did not react well to a £90mn provision to cover the potential fall-out from last year's motor finance ruling. (Close Brothers (CBG) has set aside £165mn for the same reason). Investors were also disappointed by a lack of profit upgrades. Analysts at Peel Hunt suggested that, although 2024 ended on a high, the "earnings upgrade cycle might now pause". Barclays shares have more than doubled in value in the past year, so now may be a good opportunity to take some profits. However, we remain confident about Barclays' longer-term outlook – particularly as the investment banking industry is showing signs of life and the group's structural hedging programme means interest income is well protected.

Posted at 17/2/2025 15:52 by bernie37 Barclays PLC and NatWest Group PLC both racked up gains on Monday as the dust settled and analysts weighed in on last week’s respective results.Having both dropped in the wake of updates, Barclays added 2.9% to reach 303.2p as the new week got underway, while NatWest jumped 3.4% to 442.7p. Despite each beating expectations, profit-taking saw the shares fall last week, alongside wider caution around falling interest rates and other concerns. In notes on Monday, RBC and UBS stuck with backing for Barclays though, reiterating ‘outperform “Our 2026 adjusted profit before tax estimate remains broadly unchanged, as slightly lower income and higher cost estimates are offset by lower impairment,” RBC said on Barclays. The blue eagle bank's return on tangible equity could hit 12.1% in 2026, beating guidance for 12.0%, RBC added, with shareholder rewards over the next three years seen reaching £10.9 billion. A 340p share price target for Barclays was maintained, as UBS lifted its estimate by 10p to 350p on what it felt was likely to be “conservative& Deutsche added NatWest had set a “positive floor” with aims for over 15% return on tangible equity come 2027 and held its 460p price target. |
Posted at 10/2/2025 10:10 by johnwise Weekly equities outlook: Barclays, NatWest and BPBarclays Q4 & FY earnings preview Barclays will report full-year results on Thursday ahead of the market open. It is the first of the UK lenders to report, so results will be watched carefully. Expectations are for a rise in pre-tax profits to £8.1 billion for FY2024, up from £6.6 billion in 2023. Thanks to its strong capital position, investors will be watching for a possible £1.8 billion share buyback. Barclays results will be driven by its investment banking arm, loan and deposit growth as well as net interest margins, which have risen across the year. While deposits dipped slightly in Q3 the bank is expected to see solid loan growth. Interest rate expectations for 2025 will also be crucial in relating to any guidance net interest income. Barclays also has strong exposure to investment banking, and given the upbeat results from US rivals, this could help boost Barclays. How to trade BARC earnings? Barclays has broken out of its multi-month ridding channel, reaching 307. Buyers are supported by the RSI, while it remains out of overbought territory. Buyers will look to rise towards 325. Immediate support can be seen at 297 the upper band of the rising channel. Below here, 285, the February low comes into play, and 280, the 50 SMA, and the mid-point of the rising channel. |
Posted at 09/2/2025 17:04 by bernie37 Price Forecast and Future OutlookThe overall sentiment for Barclays’ stock is moderately positive according to market analysis, analyst predictions, and technical indicators. Short-term Forecast (6-12 months): Analysts foresee a possible rise, with them setting price targets from £2.10 to £3.30. If the consensus is correct, the median target will be set at £2.61, which is a 19.7% upside from now. Medium-term Forecast (1-3 years): The projections for the medium term are a bit more divergent. The bulls think the share price will be in the range of £3.50-£4.00, driven mainly by increased profitability and possible market share gains. The already developed insights from the opposition side, on the other hand, are convinced that economic I’m-pacts might calm the upward movement around £2.50-£2.80. Long-term Forecast (3-5 years): Though long-term forecasting is more of guessing, generally, the outlook is a good one. The optimistic scenario is to see Barclays’ shares rising to as much as £5, in a favorable environment and company’s successful digital transformation. However, we have a bearish perspective that the share price will be in the range of £3-£3.5, as there will be economic cycles and competition intensifying. |
Posted at 29/1/2025 17:15 by bernie37 Barclays’ (BARC.L) share price is trading near its 12-month high of £2.98, which was reached on 21 January.This does not mean the stock has no value left though. It could be that the bank is just fundamentally worth more than before. Or the market could simply be catching up to its true value. Indeed, it may be that this true value is still not fully reflected in the current share price. To find out which is applicable to Barclays, I ran a deep dive analysis into its price and the issues surrounding it. Share price valuation The UK ‘Big Four’ bank currently trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 10. This is top of its peer group, which averages 7.9. These competitors comprise NatWest (NWG.L) at 7.5, Standard Chartered (STAN.L) at 7.8, HSBC (HSBA.L) at 7.9, and Lloyds (LLOY.L) at 8.4. So, it looks overvalued on this basis. However, on the price-to-book ratio Barclays presently trades at 0.6. Its competitor group average is 0.8, so it is undervalued on this measure. It is also undervalued on the price-to-sales ratio, trading at 1.8 against a 2.3 peer group average. To get to the bottom of the pricing, I ran a discounted cash flow analysis. In Barclays’ case, this modelling shows its shares are 26% undervalued at their current £2.89 price. Therefore, the fair value of the stock is technically £3.91. They may trade lower or higher than that based on varying market forces, of course. However, it confirms to me that the shares may be a bargain right now. Core business outlook A risk for Barclays is the recent decline in UK interest rates and the possibility of additional falls to come. This might further affect its net interest income (NII) – the difference between the interest made on loans and deposits. However, in its Q3 2024 results it upgraded its full-year 2024 NII target to above £11bn from around £11bn. For Barclays UK, the NII forecast is now around £6.5bn, from around £6.3bn. These upgrades have resulted partly from a shift towards fee-based – rather than interest-based – business. And it has also followed an ongoing hedging programme. This aims to offset the effects of interest rate reductions through various financial instruments. Indeed, to the end 2026, Barclays targets total income of around £30bn. Analysts forecast its earnings will increase by 10.86% each year to the end of 2027. And it is ultimately these that power a firm’s share price and dividend higher. Another boost may come from the Bank of England’s current efforts to persuade the government to reduce banks’ regulatory requirements to help boost economic growth. Will I buy the shares? I already have holdings in HSBC and NatWest, bought a considerable while ago. So, adding another banking stock to my portfolio would negatively skew its risk-reward balance, I think. However, if I had a larger portfolio or did not have two banking stocks in mine, I would buy Barclays’ shares today. Central to my view is its strong earnings growth forecasts in the coming years. These should push the share price much closer to fair value, in my view. It should also prompt a rise in its dividend yield, I think. |

(Photo by Eduardo Munoz Alvarez/VIEWpress/GeBarclays (BARC.L) Another bank on the list is Barclays, with a total return of 79% this year and shares trading at their highest point since 2015. Shares soared in October after the bank reported a 23% increase in attributable profits — which are owed to shareholders — to nearly £1.6bn in the third quarter. This beat consensus forecasts of nearly £1.3bn, according to figures provided by the bank. In addition, the bank announced a share buyback of up to £750m and a half-year dividend of 2.9p per share. Read more: What are share buybacks? Deutsche Bank (DBK.DE) recently highlighted Barclays as one of its top stock picks in the European banking sector going into 2025. Analysts said sizeable revenues outside of its net interest income including from asset and wealth management, as well as investment banking. In its third quarter results, Barclays said that total income across the business was up 5% year-on-year to £6.5bn, with the most growth seen in its investment banking division, where income had increased 6% to nearly £2.9bn. Deutsche Bank's analysts highlighted Barclays as a bank benefitting from merger and acquisitions activity in the sector, alluding to its recently completed purchase of Tesco's (TSCO.L) retail banking business. |
Posted at 17/12/2024 15:51 by bernie37 Barclays has lost a legal battle linked to the growing car finance mis-selling scandal, in a fresh setback for banks facing billions of pounds in compensation claims.A judge on Tuesday dismissed the bank’s appeal against a ruling that it failed to treat a customer fairly when she bought a used car. The case revolved around the use of a broker to arrange a loan to buy the car. The Financial Ombudsman Service had originally ruled against Barclays, saying the customer buying the car could have ended up paying a higher interest rate because of an undisclosed commission arrangement with a broker. Barclays had sought to challenge that ruling. However, a judge dismissed Barclays’ appeal on Tuesday, saying that the Financial Ombudsman Service was entitled to take the decision that it did. “The customer’s borrowing costs are increased by the broker’s choice of an elevated interest rate. That is so whether or not, in the self-serving view of the lender and the broker, she is more than compensated for that by other features of the transaction,” Judge Timothy Kerr said in the ruling. The case was considered by lawyers to be a potential template for how to resolve complaints in a growing mis-selling crisis that is being compared to the PPI scandal. Those on the side of the banks had hoped the appeal would be granted. Shares in Barclays fell as much as 2pc after the judge dismissed its claim on Tuesday, while other banks across the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 also suffered share price slumps. Lenders braced to pay out £38bn The latest ruling follows a string of setbacks for lenders in the growing car finance mis-selling scandal. Courts have ruled that lenders cannot make payments to brokers who arrange car finance loans unless they are clearly disclosed to buyers. The ruling overturned a longstanding practice in motor finance and ran counter to guidance from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). A Court of Appeal judgment last month ruled that any hidden commissions paid to car salesmen by banks for arranging car financing loans were illegal. A Supreme Court appeal in that case is due to be heard next year. Lenders are braced to pay out as much as £38bn in claims should judges rule against them. In the Barclays case, the Financial Ombudsman Service broke rank with the FCA to rule that consumers could claim compensation for the historical mis-selling of car finance loans. Following the move, the FCA launched an investigation with a view to establishing a compensation scheme. However, the Supreme Court case means the results are unlikely until mid-2025, leaving companies in limbo. Bank share prices have tumbled in the wake of the crisis and Charlie Nunn, the chief executive of Lloyds Bank, said earlier this month that the fallout was damaging Britain’s economy. He said: “Investors are looking at this and saying this principle of the courts coming up with decisions independently from the regulation – which is then having a significant retrospective look back – is bleeding across the whole economy.” A Barclays spokesman said: “As we have previously stated, this challenge related to a single, specific case on which we disagreed with the Financial Ombudsman Service’s decision. We are disappointed in the Court’s ruling and will be appealing.” |
