Overweight
Reason
JPMorgan raised the firm's price target on LendingClub to $25 from $22 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares as part of a 2026 outlook on the financial technology group. The firm sees a "soft-landing grind" in 2026 with slowing real growth for the sector, driven by a weakening labor market and the lagged tariff effects, partially offset by tax cuts.

The firm says LendingClub highlighted its "robust" buildout of funding channels with both marketplace investors and customer deposits. It cites LendingClub's "stable" credit performance, favorable funding channels, and entry into a new asset class for the upgrade.
