Among the larger banks, JPMorgan's (NYSE:JPM)
post-election performance has been on the higher side of average (up
about 25%), but the shares have been a standout (along with Bank of America (NYSE:BAC))
over the past year as the bank has been leveraging its strong market
share and competitive positions as it waits for rates and economic
conditions to improve.
Credit quality has been good
and likely can't get much better, but loan demand can improve if the
economy grows from here and higher rates should drive better spreads.
What's more, JPMorgan and the rest of its large bank peers could be in
place to benefit from a less stringent regulatory environment and a
lower tax rate. While the shares look priced for a high single-digit
return absent a meaningful reduction in the bank's tax rate, a
meaningful reduction of the tax rate could drive a fair value into
mid-to-high $80's.
