The firm succeeds in impressing with robust trading days, and the stock outperformed competitors. More significantly, analysts are going bullish on DFS with their price target raised to $163.00, suggesting a potentially promising future.
However, the company faced a hiccup with the resignation of the Chief Legal Officer. Also, the New York probe into the legality of the Capital One-Discover merger brought a cloud of uncertainty. Nevertheless, DFS's quarterly profits jumped due to higher interest income, and DFS's stock surged amid positive earnings.
Moreover, the company announced its intention to sell the private student loan portfolio as a strategic move. In a surprising turn, the CEO, Michael Rhodes, decided to step down creating more changes in the top management.
