Not a good buy right now for an impatient investor: the chart is weak below the key pivot, hedge funds are aggressively selling, and near-term catalysts skew negative (ETF fee pressure + cost guidance concerns).
Upside exists versus many Street targets (high-$20s to mid-$30s), but the risk/reward today isn’t compelling enough to justify chasing an entry pre-market.
Options activity is elevated: today’s volume is ~5.95x the 30-day average → suggests traders are actively positioning.
IV (30d) ~37.42 vs HV ~37.58 → implied roughly matches realized; pricing isn’t screaming mispriced.
IV percentile ~68.5 (relatively elevated vs its own history) while IV is below the 5D/10D averages → volatility has been coming down, consistent with post-event normalization.

Positive Catalysts
Wall Street remains constructive on the medium-term story: multiple Buy/Outperform views and price targets commonly above the current price.
Reported business momentum items cited by analysts: net long-term inflows (~$19.1B) and 10 consecutive quarters of positive inflows (per analyst note summary).
Operating leverage / margin expansion theme remains a recurring bullish point in recent research notes.
Revenue: $1.133B, +6.24% YoY → top-line growth is positive.
Profitability: Net income -$1.186B (-666.75% YoY) and EPS -2.63 (-671.74% YoY) → very weak bottom-line trend in the reported quarter (regardless of whether driven by one-offs, the print is directionally negative in this snapshot).
Overall: growth on revenue, but earnings quality/profitability in the latest quarter is a major concern for buying “right now.”

Analyst Ratings and Price Target Trends
Recent trend: price targets were mostly adjusted upward or mixed after Q4, but ratings skew Neutral/Equal Weight at several large firms.
More cautious takes: Goldman, BofA, Morgan Stanley, Barclays largely sit at Neutral/Equal Weight with PTs around $28–$29.5.
Wall Street “pros” case: improving organic growth/inflows + operating leverage and potential margin expansion.
Wall Street “cons” case: expense/cost outlook and fee/distribution pressures; mixed conviction (many neutrals) suggests the Street likes the story but isn’t unanimous on near-term upside.
