Not a good buy right now: BCH is trading around 46.36 pre-market while the latest Wall St price targets are 35–36 (both firms are Neutral), implying limited upside and meaningful downside vs consensus.
Technicals are bullish but stretched: price is already above/at the first resistance zone (R1 ~46.285) with short-term RSI elevated, which is a poor entry for an impatient buyer.
Options positioning is very call-skewed (put/call ~0.1), suggesting bullish sentiment, but this looks more like crowded upside chasing than a fresh asymmetric entry.
No near-term news/catalyst support and the latest quarter showed slight YoY declines in revenue and net income.
Momentum: MACD histogram is positive and expanding (0.282), supporting continuation—however it also indicates the move is already in progress.
RSI (6): 71.799 (near overbought), signaling the stock is extended in the very short term.
Levels: Pivot 43.703; Support S1 41.12 (then 39.525). Resistance R1 46.285 and R2 47.88. With price ~46.36, BCH is already pressing through R1, leaving less attractive risk/reward for a new entry.
Pattern-based forward look (provided): modest expected gains (+0.17% next day, +1.66% next week, +0.7% next month), which doesn’t justify buying at resistance.
Trend: Price targets have been revised upward, but ratings remain Neutral (no upgrade momentum).
Wall St pros/cons view:
Pros: Incrementally improving outlook implied by higher PTs; sector focus on forward guidance.
Cons: Neutral ratings persist and PTs remain well below the current price, signaling limited upside from the Street’s perspective.
Wall Street analysts forecast BCH stock price to fall over the next 12 months.

Buy -> Neutral
Reason
UBS analyst Olavo Arthuzo downgraded Banco de Chile to Neutral from Buy with a price target of $48, up from $41. The firm says the stock's valuation offers limited upside potential. Banco de Chile's current valuation appropriately reflects the bank's operational prospects and the "supportive" Chilean macroeconomic conditions anticipated for 2026, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Reason
JPMorgan analyst Yuri Fernandes raised the firm's price target on Banco de Chile to $36 from $33 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm adjusted Chilean bank targets as part of a Q4 preview. It sees a "mixed quarter" for the sector amid lower inflation, but says investors will likely ignore that and focus on 2026 guidance and trends for 2027.
