On Oct 15, 2026, our model rated The Bank of New York Mellon Cor (BNY) BUY with 41% confidence at a price of $137.64. That means most of the technical, fundamental, money-flow and news signals point to upside.
Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 14, below 30, which is oversold territory: sellers have pushed hard recently. Oversold stocks often bounce, but they can stay weak for a while.
MACD is below its signal line, so short-term momentum is pointing down.
The price has slipped below its 50-day moving average but is still above the 200-day: a pullback inside a longer-term uptrend.
Volume is 1.8x its 20-day average, so the latest move has real participation behind it.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 1.04, which looks reasonably priced for its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 29.4% and revenue growth of +13.1%.
In its latest quarter it earned $2.46 per share, which beat the $2.22 analysts expected.
Wall Street's average rating is 2.1 on a 1 (strong buy) to 5 (sell) scale, roughly a "buy", with an average price target of $163.47.
Trade plan from the model
The model's long / bullish plan uses an entry near $141.75, a target of $151.46 (+6.9%) and a stop-loss at $135.46 (-4.4%).
That is a reward-to-risk ratio of about 1.5 to 1: the potential gain is larger than the potential loss.
The plan has a time limit: reassess by Nov 5, 2026 whatever the price does.
