On January 21, 2026, Bank of America (BofA) stock slid 1.7%. This decline occurred during the previous trading session despite a series of positive updates from the financial giant.
BofA recently reported quarterly earnings. The results surpassed analyst expectations for both earnings per share and revenue.
The company announced a $1 billion stock award on January 20th. This award targets non-executive employees through its "Sharing Success Program." Management also expressed an upbeat outlook on the 2026 macroeconomic environment.
The negative stock performance suggests the market is weighing the conservative forward guidance. BofA issued this guidance earlier in the month.
