What would change the latest view

Q4 adjusted EPS falls to $1.00 or below because of recurring compliance costs, weak NII, or further fee deterioration rather than another clearly identified one-time item.
NII on an FTE basis falls materially below Q3's $16.6 billion while deposit costs continue rising.
Available FY2027 EPS consensus declines by more than 5% from the reported $5.11 level, though the current consensus source is lower-tier and requires confirmation.

At ~10.7-11.3x forward P/E, the low end of its range…
