Short-term (0–3 months)
Bank of America looks like a steadier choice in a jumpy market. The stock trades at a fair price, delivers dependable profits, and can benefit if interest rates stay higher because that boosts bank income. Strong stress-test results support the idea of steady capital returns, but limited upside, weak sentiment, and credit risks keep near-term gains modest.
