# Weekly Recap | Interactive Brokers -1.35%, consensus target above spot

## The Week

Interactive Brokers (IBKR) fell 1.35% this week, closing Friday at $91.37, while the S&P 500 slipped 0.8% over the same stretch, leaving the stock about 0.55 percentage points behind the benchmark. The week was choppy: Tuesday rallied to $93.29 before ending at $90.97, Wednesday and Thursday drifted lower to an intraday low of $88.74 on Thursday, and Friday recovered to close at $91.37.

## Key Events

Company-specific news this week centred on client cash and custody. Tuesday brought a report that Interactive Brokers earns interest on $182 billion of clients’ idle cash, with a discussion of whether a potential Anthropic IPO would drain it. On Thursday the company pitched custody services to registered investment advisers, emphasising low fees and growth potential, and a company representative said investor risk appetite had not fallen.

## Analyst Ratings

Across 15 covering institutions, 7 rate the stock buy, 2 overweight, 4 hold and 1 underweight, with 1 holding no opinion. The consensus rating is buy, with a consensus target of $105.74, about 15.7% above Friday’s close. Targets range widely from $70 to $121, a spread of more than $50 that signals clear disagreement. The stock ranks 8th out of 32 in its industry group.

## The Week Ahead

Next week is heavy on macro data. Tuesday gives us the New York Fed manufacturing index, with a prior reading of 20.6 and a forecast of 14.75. Wednesday delivers retail sales, import prices, the NAHB housing market index and EIA weekly crude inventories, keeping the market sensitive to shifts in US economic momentum.

## In Short

The week was choppy before a late bounce, while client cash and low-fee custody remained the core narrative. Ratings lean positive with a consensus target 15.7% above spot, though the wide target range points to significant disagreement. The latest session’s flows show small-lot buying against large-lot selling. The watchpoints ahead are the macro data and broker-industry competition.
