Citigroup Inc. made several notable moves. The financial institution announced the full redemption of its Series U preferred stock leading to a significant rise in the company's stock by 56.1% within the year. This growth outperformed the S&P500 Index in YTD returns. With this share performance, experts believe it is a good undervalued stock to invest in. In a surprising turn of events, Citigroup selected Apple as its top AI stock pick for 2025, foreseeing that Apple would surpass Nvidia's stature in AI. Receiving high recommendations from notable investors including Warren Buffett and AQR Quant Hedge Fund, Citigroup remains attractive to shareholders. Despite incurring a massive $189 billion trading blunder, the banking giant managed to secure better-than-expected Q2 earnings and meet forecasts, propelling the stock further. CEO Jane Fraser's efforts to reform the struggling institution have started to show positive results. However, concerns arise as insiders sold US$2.7M in stock, hinting at potential weakness. Regulatory challenges persist, with federal regulators fining the bank $136 million for delays in fixing internal control issues. Nonetheless, high institutional ownership of shares and a promising Q2 financial report suggest that, despite obstacles, there is still significant upside potential for Citigroup.
