Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 74% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published March 13, 2026
Schwab is on Watch because returning cash to shareholders and buying Forge make the business look stronger, but recent price behavior is still shaky. The acquisition opens more private-market options and buybacks plus the dividend can steady sentiment. It's mainly a rebound idea tied to interest-rate and market shifts, so stay cautious.
Primary drivers
- Forge deal opens access to private-market investments for clients
- Share buybacks and the dividend help reduce downside worries
- Revenue from brokerage and advice is less affected by credit swings
- If interest rates calm, the stock may find easier ground to recover
How it played out
