PNC fell 5% Wednesday after the big Pittsburgh bank disappointed Wall Street with a soft outlook for the rest of the year.
PNC beat analyst estimates with its third quarter, but the fourth-quarter outlook was "a bit soft," said Citi Research analyst Keith Horowitz. He said the shortfall seemed centered on higher expenses.
PNC fell $8 to $181 and change on a day when the news from the banking industry was generally quite bullish, for the second day in a row. Citi rates the stock buy and has a price target of $230, but PNC shares are practically alone among the major U.S. lenders in being down for the year, off 6%.
