American Express (AXP) delivered strong Q4 results, boosting investor confidence heading into the next quarter. Card member spending surged, net interest income rose 12%, and fee growth accelerated. As a result, management expects revenue to grow 8–10% in Q1 2026. Moreover, they increased the quarterly dividend by 17%, signaling optimism and financial strength. These moves reflect a strategic focus on technology, customer engagement, and international expansion. Therefore, it is expected to continue momentum, especially among millennial and Gen Z users. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic about AXP’s near-term outlook. Out of 26 experts, 16 recommend holding, while 8 suggest buying the stock. The average price target stands at $319.95, slightly below the current price, indicating limited upside. However, some bullish forecasts reach as high as $394, showing confidence in long-term growth.

AXP continued rising after completing wave IV and broke above the wave III high. This confirms wave IV likely ended. Now, the market appears to be unfolding wave ((1)) of V, showing bullish momentum. We expect an impulsive structure to complete the cycle soon. If the move is impulsive, the chart should reflect a clear five-wave pattern. However, if it’s a leading diagonal, wave (3) may have ended, and wave (4) could be underway. Either way, we anticipate more upside toward the 351.70–392.36 zone. The key now is identifying the Elliott structure that offers the best exit before correction begins.
