Investors looking for stocks in the Banks - Foreign sector might want to consider either Banco Bradesco (BBD) or United Overseas Bank Ltd. (UOVEY). But which of these two stocks is more attractive to value investors?
Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.
Banco Bradesco S.A.'s pullback reopens the thesis, as the operating recovery looks more intact than the stock's recent move suggests. ROAE is back above the Selic hurdle, turning the profitability spread positive again after years of compression. NII momentum and a better secured-credit mix suggest Bradesco's recovery is being built on quality, not just loan growth.
