Wells Fargo stock forecast: Analyst price target view

Piper Sandler (strategist note)

Piper Sandler set a 12-month price target of $77 on 8 April 2025, reflecting a conservative view on near-term loan growth following the asset cap removal, which allows but delays balance sheet expansion (Investing.com, 13 October 2025).

UBS (CIO commentary)

UBS maintained a one-year price target of $89.13 on 29 September 2025, citing anticipated mid-single-digit EPS growth, stable credit quality and potential operating leverage gains (Nasdaq, 7 October 2025).

Morgan Stanley (equal-weight)

Morgan Stanley raised its WFC target to $95 on 29 September 2025, noting limited near-term upside given current valuations, yet acknowledging scope for improvement from management’s ROTCE initiatives and resumed share buybacks (AInvest, 29 September 2025).

Evercore ISI (analyst note)

Evercore ISI set a $92 12-month price target for WFC on 22 September 2025, highlighting stronger-than-expected deposit growth and cost-control measures supporting earnings resilience despite margin pressures (Nasdaq, 30 September 2025).

Analyst price targets for Wells Fargo generally fall between $77 and $95, reflecting expectations around asset cap removal benefits, loan and deposit growth, cost efficiency, and operating leverage improvements.

WFC stock price: Technical overview

On the daily chart, WFC was trading at $78.99 as of 3:08pm UTC on 13 October 2025, holding above its key moving-average cluster – the 20-, 50-, 100- and 200-day MAs at approximately 82, 81, 79 and 76 – with the 20-over-50 alignment remaining intact. Momentum appears neutral, with the 14-day RSI at 39.7, consistent with a sideways bias while the price stays below the moving-average band.

The first area to watch on the upside is the 83.01 pivot; a daily close above this level could bring the 87.5 area into focus.

On pullbacks, initial support lies around 79.37 (S1) and then near the 200-day MA at 76. A break below this area may indicate a further decline towards recent lows (TradingView, 13 October 2025).
