Experian shares dropped to a 19-month low on Wednesday, tumbling as much as 7% in London trading. The credit data firm maintained its full-year outlook despite reporting 8% organic revenue growth—excluding acquisitions and currency effects—in the third quarter. Analyst Andrew Ripper of Panmure Liberum cited a weak U.S. dollar, President Donald Trump’s plan to cap credit card interest rates at 10%, concerns over artificial intelligence, and Fair Isaac’s move to sell credit scores directly to mortgage lenders as factors weighing on investor sentiment. Experian told analysts on a call that much of the potential impact from a credit-card rate cap, if implemented, would likely fall on consumers.
