With the financial sector performing well recently, Bank of America has risen $12.7 per share since 6/2016 and $8.7 per share since 11/2016.

Despite losing .29% of its market share in 2016, Bank of America posted a year-over-year income increase of 14.5% on a 2% revenue gain in the last quarter. Income derived from global market business increased 284%, driven by a strong step forward in revenue and supplemented by a substantial decrease in costs. Real estate, and banking profits increased, as well, and the company reduced its losses from other sectors.
With a 1.19% dividend growth, an investor can expect income from the stock. The company is also increasing its revenue, decreasing costs, and maintaining a large cash flow for future innovation. Bank of America is also positioned in an industry that is currently quite strong, meaning that it has a higher probability of rising in the near future. What makes Bank of America's stock even more appealing is its low price-to-earnings multiple of nearly 17. The stock is undervalued, and growing, meaning that its share price has plenty of room to rise if market conditions allow.
