CAMS — SCHW Research Note July 28, 2026

Schwab.s funding repair now has firmer evidence, but the post-results tape still needs confirmation. Revenue and earnings growth, lower leverage and debt reduction support the long-duration franchise. Verified sweep growth and a 3.00% net interest margin improve the fundamental read, while supplemental-funding detail and market confirmation remain incomplete.

The central question is whether customer cash has reached a durable floor while expensive borrowing continues to decline. The post-results reversal shows that investors still want direct evidence even as financials retain sector leadership.

The full Level 2+ review maps the internal debate, fundamentals ledger, valuation scenarios, market structure, catalysts and invalidation conditions. Read the gated SCHW Deep Coverage Review or join CAMS Premium Research.
