Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 58% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published February 1, 2026
BofA looks like a steadier bank to hold for the next 0-3 months because Washington talks about stablecoin rules could change how people feel about banks and crypto. BofA also revealed a bigger stake in Flutter, showing it is actively using its capital. The stock has been slowly climbing, so buying when it dips is the suggested approach.
Primary drivers
- Policy talks on stablecoin rules can shift market mood
- Big consumer and markets business benefits if risk appetite improves
- Larger Flutter stake shows active use of capital
- Price is forming a base-good to buy on routine dips
How it played out
BAC: target not reached in the window
Lyra published BAC at $53.20 on 2026-02-01 with 12% expected growth and a $59.58 target. The thesis pointed to stablecoin policy talks, a bigger Flutter stake, better risk appetite for consumer and markets activity, and a base that made routine dips the preferred entry.
Inside the window, BAC rose to $56.87 on 2026-02-06, a 6.9% peak gain. It stayed below the $59.58 target and never reached it. The stock ended at $53.24 on 2026-05-02. Verdict: the thesis partially played out, but the target missed.
