In the recent period, the American Express Company (AXP) has seen a mix of successes and challenges. AXP's Q3 returns were positive at +17.1% while navigating through class-action claims brought forth by merchants. Despite facing a few legal bumps, Wall Street analysts acknowledge its potential with its stock targets. This is further confirmed by multiple advisory groups such as SageView Advisory Group LLC and Redwood Grove Capital LLC, either maintaining or growing their stake in AXP.
However, the company saw a setback with insiders selling US $58 million worth of shares, possibly signifying caution among them. While its stock experienced a decline in spite of an improving market, the balance it maintained between merchant acceptance and customer value appears to counteract that drop. Looking into the future, its January 2025 Options have begun trading. Looking at its growth strategy and revenue of $16.6 billion, AXP has become an appealing element in Warren Buffett's portfolio.
Even though the company stock fell short of Q2 expectations and the CEO sold shares worth $48.9 million, AXP managed to hit an all-time high at $262.11, making it a possible good value and top valued stock for long-term investors.
