Is State Street a Buy?
Considering how hard the financial sector has been hit this year by the one-two punch of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Fed lowering prime interest rates to near 0%, State Street (NYSE: STT) has fared relatively well in the first quarter.
The asset manager/custody bank reported a 25% increase in first-quarter earnings compared to the same period last year, topping analysts' estimates. The company benefited from a complementary mix of revenue streams that enabled it to navigate the rapids in Q1.
But where does it go from here? Is State Street stock worth owning?
