Our own calculation from the exchange’s daily candles, as of Oct 27, 2026. “All-time” applies since the start of this series, not to the whole market. Changes in percent; the TradingView chart shows prices. “Today” = change of the last trading day versus the previous day. Not investment advice.

Pullback in trend · Analysis method

The price of WFC is currently in no zone of this method. The check runs daily after the market close.

Whether a price will soon reach a zone, you see from Watcher. Plans and pricing

How the zone is formed

What is this? In an intact uptrend (price above the 200-day line, 50-day line rising), the price pulls back to the 50-day line after a rise and closes back above it.

Buy zone: around the 50-day line (± 0.5 ATR). Stop: 1.5 ATR below it. Target 1: the last high, Target 2: 2 ATR above it.

The pattern is valid for at most 15 trading days and expires if the price falls below the stop. This is a calculated analysis, not a forecast and not a call to buy. Risk notice and investment advice

Key figures with traffic lights

Each light follows a simple, disclosed rule. The comparison is with the sector median of all 79 symbols in the Financials sector on our list (current members of the S&P 500 and other lists).

Revenue growth

Light yellow: below sector

+3.0% per year, last 5 years

Sector Financials: median +8.8% (73 symbols)

What does this mean? Revenue: over 5 years it grew by 3.0% per year on average, but more slowly than the median company in the sector (+8.8%).

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net income (total)

Light green: above sector

+45.2% per year, last 5 years

Sector Financials: median +13.8% (71 symbols)

per share: not shown – does not match the reported share count

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net margin

Light green: above sector

25.5% last fiscal year

Sector Financials: median 19.4% (75 symbols)

Debt / equity

Light yellow: higher than sector

1.01 latest balance sheet

Light rule: Green: at most the sector median · Yellow: up to twice the median · Red: more than twice · Gray: without a sector comparison.

Payout ratio

Light green: covered

27% Dividend / earnings per share

Sector Financials: median 34% (58 symbols)

Light rule: Green: up to 60% of earnings · Yellow: up to 100% · Red: more than earnings or a dividend despite a loss · Gray for real estate (REITs). The sector median is for comparison only.
