Spark’s Take on HMST Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, HMST is a Neutral.
HomeStreet’s overall stock score is impacted mainly by its weak financial performance, characterized by declining profitability, high leverage, and cash flow issues. Technical analysis provides some positive momentum, but valuation concerns due to a negative P/E ratio and no dividend yield further dampen the score. The absence of earnings call and corporate event data limits additional assessment.
