Webull Corp A shares rose 7.56% to $6.40, driven by a rating upgrade from Scotiabank following a recent selloff. The bank upgraded the stock from Hold to Buy, citing valuation concerns after the decline. This move occurred as the company addressed regulatory scrutiny regarding customer data privacy.

What Happened

Scotiabank analyst Lance Jessurun upgraded Webull to Buy, maintaining a $9 price target. The upgrade followed a sharp drop in shares triggered by a House Select Committee report alleging that the online brokerage exposed sensitive U.S. customer information to China. In response, Webull stated that access to sensitive customer data is controlled by supervisors located in the United States. The company confirmed that employees in China have no access to this data and that no person in China has authority to move or direct customer funds. Webull also noted that it has not experienced a material cybersecurity incident involving customer data. Additionally, the company announced it will engage with the White House Committee, SEC, and FINRA to enhance its U.S. financial regulatory frameworks. Rosenblatt lowered its price target to $12 from $15, citing regulatory headline risk, while other analysts viewed the recent selloff as overdone.

What The Data Shows

The stock opened at $6.17, a 3.7% gap from the prior close of $5.95. It reached a session high of $6.43 at 11:25 AM ET and a low of $6.05 at 9:30 AM ET. Volume stood at 9.8 million shares, which is 0.7 times the three-month daily average. Fundamentals show a market cap of $3.2 billion, a P/E of 75.1, and revenue growth of 47.1% on a trailing twelve-month basis. The 52-week range is $4.50 to $13.25. Over the last eight sessions, the stock declined 10.6% from $7.06 to $6.32. Unusual options activity included two notable prints with $630,000 in call premium and zero put premium, with the largest single print at $364,000. Insider filings over the last 90 days show zero buys and six sells totaling $2.8 million, with the most recent sale by President Anthony Michael Denier on October 5, 2026.

What To Watch

Retail traders on r/wallstreetbets and other platforms are debating the impact of data privacy policies on platform choice, with some viewing the recent drop as an opportunity. The market will monitor the company’s ongoing engagement with U.S. regulators and any further analyst adjustments to price targets in light of the regulatory environment.
