What happened
Reached its target in 50 days.
The thesis — published October 28, 2025
HSBC looks ready for a bounce after a sharp slide, with signs selling may be easing. Management now expects $43B in 2025 interest income, and a $0.50 dividend adds steady cash while buybacks are paused due to legal costs. The bank is testing a blockchain payment system with little profit impact for now. A 3-month recovery is possible, but legal and credit risks remain.
Primary drivers
- Shares look beaten down and starting to steady, hinting at a rebound
- 2025 interest income target raised to $43B, boosting confidence for investors
- $0.50 dividend adds income while waiting for the stock to recover
- Trial of a blockchain payments project shows willingness to innovate
