Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

A high-profile upgrade by Bank of America can catalyze short-term capital inflows and restore investor interest, especially with a clear 2027 fee potential; history shows such upgrades often trigger 5–15% intraday/overnight moves in the ensuing days, though fundamentals must confirm longer-term upside.
