AXP boosts dividends amid strong Gen-Z spend

Watch: Watch upcoming AXP earnings for credit card volume trends and delinquencies to gauge sustained revenue momentum and risk from potential consumer spending weakness.

Full analysis

American Express raised its quarterly dividend by 16% alongside FY2026 EPS guidance between $17.30 and $17.90, signaling solid profitability. Spending jumped 36% among Gen-Z and Millennials, driving revenue growth despite falling institutional holdings by GAMCO Investors. Insider activity is heavily skewed to selling totaling over $123M, though a small insider buy cluster of $1M shows some confidence. Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust delivered 42% total return last year with AXP as a core holding.

The strong dividend raise and robust younger customer spending underscore AXP's earnings power and premium cardholder loyalty amid subscription to dividend-focused funds, but insider selling and recent share price downtrend temper enthusiasm.
