- JPMorgan upgraded the stock to ‘Overweight’ from ‘Neutral’ and maintained a price target of $31.
- The firm sees the stock’s pullback as a long-awaited buying opportunity.
- The stock declined around 10% since posting strong Q4 numbers and fiscal 2026 earnings expectations.
Shares of SoFi Technologies Inc (SOFI) closed below its 200-day moving average (200-DMA) on Monday for the first time in over nine months, following an unrelenting sell-off that lasted for seven straight sessions.
However, Tuesday’s pre-market gain of more than 4% could be a signal that bulls have not given up yet. Only a consistent close below the long-term average, along with declining price signals that the stock may be commencing a downtrend.

Bank Of America Flags Valuation Concerns
The stock has been on a significant downtrend lately. SoFi shares fell nearly 12% last week, marking their worst weekly performance since April 2025. Bank of America flagged valuation concerns, saying the stock appeared stretched. The decline also extended SoFi’s losing streak to a fourth straight week.
On Friday, the company posted adjusted fourth-quarter (Q4) earnings of $0.13 per share on revenue of $1.03 billion, topping estimates of $0.12 per share and $977 million in revenue, respectively. Notably, this was the first time SoFi crossed the $1 billion quarterly revenue mark.
SoFi also added about one million new members, lifting its total 35% year over year to 13.7 million, while product additions climbed 37% to 20.2 million.
JPMorgan Sees Buying Opportunity
On Tuesday, JPMorgan upgraded the stock to ‘Overweight’ from ‘Neutral’ and maintained a price target of $31, according to The Fly. This implies an upside of 40% from Monday’s closing price of $22.08.
Despite a 10% slide after upbeat revenue and 2026 guidance, analyst Reginald Smith sees the pullback as a long-awaited buying opportunity. The momentum in SoFi’s business is “undeniable,” as the company continues to add new members and deposits at a record pace, the brokerage said.
