Are Ally Financial Bulls Too Bullish or Are Analysts Too Cautious?
Published:
Ally Financial Inc. (NYSE: ALLY) had two things working it for shares to rally on Tuesday. The first was that not all of the underwriting group was bullish as Ally’s quiet period was in force. The second was that the broad market was in the tank, as Fed presidents were talking up the time that rate hikes could take place.
So, the question is whether the analysts were too cautious or whether the bullish analysts were too bullish.
