    You are Right Hansen About Based on the improved loan growth, cost efficiency, and all-time high housing prices, the analysts are bullish on Wells Fargo and rate the stock as a buy :)

    Buffett has a good chunk of his money in it. Very good company, good stock to own longterm. I tend to put most of my money (long and short) in smaller growth companies and larger companies with more beta. In the financial sector, I'll typically put more into names like BLK, GS, and MA, for instance. Very good company though.

    I too have bullish predictions for wells fargo. I feel 2013-2014 is when the banks and the general finance sector at large will see a big breakout in terms of recovery. There'll be a big boost in confidence in investors and the well-being of these banks will create a false sense of security for many people when in reality, the middle class really isn't doing that great.

    I think WFC is the best-managed big American bank and I'm thinking about buying some. Even after the run-up in price it's only trading at 12.5 times earnings. The fact that Warren Buffet owns it also is a positive to me.

    The fact that their stocks relies so heavily on mortgages scares me a bit. I am not convinced it is certain that home prices will continue to rise. I would stay away from them for now.

    Wells Fargo is built on the backs of mortgages. And as we all know, the housing market is unpredictable.. I wouldn't bother investing with them right now.

    Today WFC is going up today, Wells Fargo said it released $500 million from its reserves for loan losses during the quarter, which was up from the $200 million it released in the same quarter last year.
