  • Nu Holdings Stock May Reflect Excess Optimism After 48% Rally
    January 27, 2026, 9:42 AM EST. Nu Holdings' (NU) shares surged 47.6% over the past year, closing recently at $18.18. Despite strong returns, valuation models signal potential overvaluation. The Excess Returns model estimates intrinsic value at $12.01, suggesting the current price is about 51% higher.

Experts caution investors to weigh rapidly rising stock prices against fundamental value, especially amid increased market interest in Latin American digital banking platforms. This assessment highlights concerns over whether current stock prices fairly reflect underlying financial performance and risk.
