Synchrony: Buyback-Fueled Upside with Improving Credit - Upgrade to Powerful Buy
Synchrony Financial is cheap on P/E and P/B, returning capital aggressively via a $6.5B buyback that could retire roughly 25% of the company by market-cap terms. Credit metrics are improving and loan losses are trending down. This trade plan targets upside to $86 with a $70 stop, sized for a long-term (180 trading days) holding period.
