Charles Schwab's week centers on record third-quarter results and a notable policy move: the firm reported total net revenues of $7.2 billion and adjusted EPS of $1.69, up 29% year-over-year, with core net new assets of $190 billion, up 38% YoY. Clients opened 1.2 million new brokerage accounts, managed investing flows reached $24 billion, and bank lending grew 35% YoY to $72 billion. Separately, Schwab announced it will not charge custody fees to registered investment advisers, differentiating itself from competitors, while also moving to block external AI agents from accessing customer accounts over security concerns.
SCHW closed at $93.37, down 3.5% over one month and 13.3% over three months, though up 1.3% over six months. The close sits below both the 50-day average of $99.16 and the 200-day average of $97.38. The GekkoIndex reads 60.1, placing the stock in the Accumulation zone, and price stands 12.3% below Gekko Fair Value of $106.46.

Charles Schwab operates as a financial services firm, offering brokerage and securities trading, wealth management, banking, asset custody, and financial planning guidance to its clients. The company has built its name around serving both everyday investors and the professionals who manage money on their behalf, combining trading access with advisory and banking functions under one roof.

This segment also offers managed portfolios, separately managed accounts, personalized planning, cash management tools, mutual funds and ETFs, and banking products such as mortgages, home equity lines, and trust services.
