Breaking Down LPL Finl Hldgs: 11 Analysts Share Their Views

JP Morgan analyst Michael Cho upgrades LPL Finl Hldgs (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPLA#NASDAQ">LPLA</a>) from Neutral to Overweight and raises the price target from $288 to $397.

Goldman Sachs is shaking up the 2025 playbook for the capital markets industry. In a note shared Monday, analyst Alexander Blostein, CFA outlined key winners and losers in alternative asset managers, brokers, and traditional managers, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/upgrades">with bold rating adjustments.</a> 
Among the top picks are KKR &amp; Co. Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>) and Raymond James Financial, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RJF#NYSE">RJF</a>), while Hamilton Lane Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLNE#NASDAQ">HLNE</a>) and Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBOE#NYSE">CBOE</a>) face downgrades.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Alternative Managers: The 2024 High-Flyers Face Valuation Concerns</h3>
Alternative asset managers outperformed the S&amp;P 500 by a robust 28% in 2024, surging 51% on average. Yet, lofty valuations and slowing growth expectations may challenge the sector&#8217;s momentum in 2025. 
Some stocks nearly doubled: KKR &amp; Co. Inc. climbed +82%, and StepStone Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STEP#NASDAQ">STEP</a>) was up 79%. At the lower end, Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CG#NASDAQ">CG</a>) rose 24%, while Hamilton Lane Incorporated posted a 31% gain.
Despite these massive returns, average price-to-earnings (P/E) multiples for the group expanded over 30% last year, with the 2026 expected P/E standing at a steep 24.5x.
"We think some of the multiple expansion is justified by improving organic FRE [fee-related earnings] growth and a cyclical boost from capital markets activity, but valuations are becoming increasingly prohibitive," Blostein said. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Themes Driving Alternative Managers In 2025</h3>
Goldman Sachs indicated three major themes shaping the landscape for alternative managers in 2025:
<ol>
<li>Private Credit Competition: After driving 70% of management fee growth in 2024, private credit faces rising competition and risks of commoditization in direct lending, although demand for private investment-grade credit remains solid.</li>
<li>Retail and Private Wealth Expansion: The retail investor channel will continue to grow, but with increasing competition from scaled players.</li>
<li>Private Equity Revival: Fundraising and realization activity is expected to recover as deal markets normalize, benefiting corporate private equity managers.</li>
</ol>
Among alternative managers, Goldman&#8217;s top buys are KKR &amp; Co. Inc. and TPG Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPG#NASDAQ">TPG</a>) for their robust FRE growth potential.
On the flip side, Hamilton Lane Incorporated was cut to Sell on slowing fee growth, with a target of $139. Blue Owl Capital Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OWL#NYSE">OWL</a>) was downgraded to Neutral on slowing organic growth.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Brokers: Recovery In M&amp;A Boosts RJF</h3>
Improved capital markets activity in 2025 could boost deal-making, especially in M&amp;A. 
Raymond James Financial, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RJF#NYSE">RJF</a>) was upgraded from Neutral to Buy, with Goldman setting a $185 price target. Blostein highlighted RJF's $2.5 billion excess capital and strong operating leverage as key growth drivers.
LPL Financial Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPLA#NASDAQ">LPLA</a>) remains a top pick, while trust banks like The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BK#NYSE">BK</a>) and State Street Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STT#NYSE">STT</a>) are well-positioned for balanced growth.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional Managers: Stabilizing Or Slowing</h3>
Traditional asset managers show mixed potential. 
Franklin Resources, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEN#NYSE">BEN</a>) was upgraded from Sell to Neutral due to its attractive valuation, including a 6.5% dividend yield and a 14% free cash flow yield. Janus Henderson Group plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JHG#NYSE">JHG</a>) also moved to Neutral on improving performance fees and ETF growth.
On the downside, Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMG#NYSE">AMG</a>) was downgraded to Neutral due to deteriorating EBITDA growth. Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBOE#NYSE">CBOE</a>) was cut from Neutral to Sell as growth in SPX and VIX option products stagnated.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Financial stocks are basking in a post-election rally after Donald Trump's election win as investors anticipate a friendlier regulatory landscape for banks, brokers and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets"> consumer finance companies</a>.
With expectations of deregulation and possible tax cuts, traders are piling into financials at levels not seen in years.
The Financials Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>) jumped over 5% last week, hitting fresh record highs, while weekly inflows surged to $1.573 billion—the highest in over two years. 
Regional banks, in particular, were on fire, with the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) skyrocketing nearly 11% and seeing $1.09 billion in inflows, marking its largest influx of money since March 2023.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Drivers: Deregulation, Tax Cuts Fuel Investor Optimism</h3>
Investors are betting on a wave of Trump-favored financial reforms that could benefit the sector. 
Richard Ramsden, a Goldman Sachs analyst, highlighted that "the market is pricing in the potential for changes to a number of proposed regulations, a step up in capital markets activity, as well as the potential for a reduction in the corporate tax rate."
Potential regulatory changes under Trump could include:
<ol>
<li>401K Reform: Opening up retirement plans to private investments could attract a flood of new capital.</li>
<li>Relaxed Antitrust Regulations: A more lenient antitrust stance may spark increased mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A) activity.</li>
<li>Reduced SEC Oversight: There is limited clarity on whether the SEC will continue probing brokers' sweep pricing practices.</li>
<li>Crypto-Friendly Policies: Financial firms with crypto exposure may benefit from a more favorable regulatory environment and higher digital asset prices.</li>
</ol>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs's Top Picks Among Financials Stocks</h3>
In anticipation of these shifts, Ramsden and his team have identified several top picks across the financial sector. 
Here's where they see the biggest potential gains:
<ul>

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PJT#NYSE">PJT</a>).</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Steeper Yield Curve Expected to Boost Regional Banks</h3>
As markets react to potential economic stimulus and reduced regulatory pressure, analysts anticipate a steeper yield curve, which could be a windfall for banks with heavy exposure to fixed-rate assets. 
Around 60% of both regional and large banks' balance sheets consist of fixed-rate holdings, positioning them to profit as long-term rates rise.
Ramsden's picks for banks that stand to gain the most from a steeper yield curve include:
Regional Banks: 
<ul>
<li>Citizens Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CFG#NYSE">CFG</a>)</li>
<li>Comerica Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMA#NYSE">CMA</a>)</li>
<li>First Hawaiian Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FHB#NASDAQ">FHB</a>)</li>
<li>Zions Bancorporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZION#NASDAQ">ZION</a>)</li>

<li>PNC Financial Services Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PNC#NYSE">PNC</a>)</li>
<li>Ally Financial Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLY#NYSE">ALLY</a>).</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Surge in Capital Velocity: M&amp;A and Trading Boost Expected</h3>
Trump's pro-business stance is also expected to accelerate capital velocity in the M&amp;A and equity capital markets, providing a strong backdrop for trading activity. 
According to Ramsden, large banks like Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) could be the biggest beneficiaries, while among regional banks,&nbsp;KeyCorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KEY#NYSE">KEY</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Citizens Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CFG#NYSE">CFG</a>)&nbsp;stand out.
Investment banks could also see a boost, with&nbsp;Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>),&nbsp;Moelis &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MC#NYSE">MC</a>),&nbsp;PJT Partners Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PJT#NYSE">PJT</a>), and&nbsp;Piper Sandler Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PIPR#NYSE">PIPR</a>)&nbsp;positioned to capitalize on a more active M&amp;A market. 
In the alternative asset management space,&nbsp;Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CG#NASDAQ">CG</a>),&nbsp;KKR,&nbsp;Apollo,&nbsp;TPG Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPG#NASDAQ">TPG</a>), and&nbsp;Ares Management Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARES#NYSE">ARES</a>)&nbsp;are expected to benefit from an uptick in private equity deal flow.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Tax Cut Hopes Could Supercharge Regional Banks</h3>
Financial stocks are uniquely positioned to benefit from any corporate tax reductions, given that 90% of their earnings come from the U.S. and are currently taxed at an average rate of 23%. After the 2017 tax reform slashed the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, financials saw their effective tax rate drop by 10 percentage points.
Ramsden estimates that if the Trump administration pursues another tax cut, regional banks would likely see the most significant upside. 
His top tax-cut beneficiaries include&nbsp;Moelis &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MC#NYSE">MC</a>),&nbsp;American Express Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>),&nbsp;Evercore Inc.,&nbsp;Bread Financial Holdings,&nbsp;Piper Sandler,&nbsp;First Citizens BancShares Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCNCA#NASDAQ">FCNCA</a>),&nbsp;Synovus Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNV#NYSE">SNV</a>), and&nbsp;Western Alliance Bancorporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAL#NYSE">WAL</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Insurers to Benefit from Steeper Curve, P&amp;C Pricing Power</h3>
The insurance sector may also stand to gain under Trump's pro-business policies. Ramsden expects potential increases in claim costs but sees positive momentum for property and casualty pricing.
Insurers with substantial U.S. exposure and a favorable position on the yield curve could see tailwinds.
Ramsden's picks in the insurance space include&nbsp;W.R. Berkley Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WRB#NYSE">WRB</a>),&nbsp;Hartford Financial Services Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIG#NYSE">HIG</a>), and&nbsp;The Travelers Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>), which he believes are better positioned than brokers to benefit from these trends.

월스트리트가 2분기 실적 시즌을 준비함에 따라 7월 12일 금요일에 결과를 발표할 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/banks">3대 주요 은행</a>에 모두 주목하고 있다: JP모건 체이스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), 씨티그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>) 그리고 웰스파고(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>).
울프 리서치(Wolfe Research)는 최근 해당 부문에서 잠재적인 승자들과 실적이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/banks">저조한 기업들</a>을 강조하면서 향후 은행 실적에 대한 포괄적인 분석을 발표했다.
울프 리서치의 분석가인 스티븐 추박(Steven Chubak)은 지난 일요일에 은행 주식에 대한 업데이트된 선호도를 세부적으로 공유했다.
연초에 울프 리서치는 장기간의 고금리 혜택을 누리는 은행, 특히 JP모건에 대해 낙관적이었다. 그러나 연방준비제도(연준)가 금리를 인하할 가능성이 높아지면서 전망은 바뀌었다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">울프 리서치의 선호 주식</h3>
추박의 수정된 전략은 이제 독특한 순이자소득(NII) 이점과 성장 대비 매력적인 가치 평가를 지닌 은행들과 중개회사들을 강조한다. 그의 최고 추천으로는 뱅크오브아메리카(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), 찰스 슈왑(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) 그리고 LPL 파이낸셜 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPLA#NASDAQ">LPLA</a>)가 있다.
<ul>
<li>뱅크오브아메리카(BofA): 2026년 실적 추정치 대비 13% 상승 여력이 있는 자산 가격 조정 및 부채 최적화의 혜택을 누릴 것으로 예상된다.</li>
<li>찰스 슈왑: 하반기의 성수기 특성과 2026년 컨센서스 추정치 대비 약 35%의 상당한 상승 여력이 있는 점에서 선호된다.</li>
<li>LPL 파이낸셜: 동종 업체들에 비해 유기적 성장 격차가 커지고 수익률 곡선이 더 가파르다는 이점이 있다는 점에서 주목을 받고 있다.</li>
</ul>
추박은 소매 브로커들이 하반기의 향상된 펀더멘털과 계절적 성과로 인해 금리에 민감한 커버리지 내에서 선호되는 하위 부문으로 남아 있다고 강조한다. 그러나 그는 진화하는 시장 역학과 경쟁 압박으로 인해 특정 이름에 대해서는 여전히 신중한 태도를 취하고 있다.
또한 읽기: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39672822/nvidia-could-earn-5-per-share-in-2025-analyst-says-supply-checks-materially-larger-">엔비디아는 2025년에 주당 5달러를 벌 수 있을 것이라고 분석가가 언급: 공급 확인은 &#8216;단 두 달 전보다 훨씬 더 크다&#8217;</a>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">울프 리서치의 다운그레이드</h3>
이 보고서에는 몇 가지 주목할 만한 다운그레이드도 포함되어 있다:
<ul>
<li>JP모건 체이스: 금리 인하 노출에 대한 우려와 상당한 랠리에 따른 가치 평가 확대로 인해 아웃퍼폼(Outperform)에서 피어 퍼폼(Peer Perform, 유사 기업군 수익률)으로 하향 조정되었다. 추박은 JP모건의 실적이 크게 뛰어났지만 이제 주식 가치 평가가 확장된 것으로 보이며 잠재적인 금리 인하가 NII에 영향을 미칠 수 있다고 지적한다.</li>
<li>레이몬드 제임스 파이낸셜(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RJF#NYSE">RJF</a>): 순 신규 자산 역풍 및 보상 압박을 포함하여 성장에 영향을 미치는 새로운 위험으로 인해 피어 퍼폼(Peer Perform)으로 등급이 하향 조정되었다.</li>
<li>스테이트 스트리트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STT#NYSE">STT</a>): 긍정적인 EPS 수정에도 불구하고 2026년 컨센서스 추정치에 비해 상당한 하향 위험에 직면해 있어 언더퍼폼(Underperform)으로 하향 조정되었다.</li>
