Visa's Trading Volume Drops 47.73% to $11.84 Billion Ranking 47th Despite Stock Price Gains

On May 28, 2025, Visa's trading volume reached $11.84 billion, a significant decrease of 47.73% from the previous day, placing it 47th in the day's trading volume rankings. Visa's stock price increased by 0.12%, marking its second consecutive day of gains, with a total increase of 1.75% over the past two days.

Jefferies recently raised its price target for Visa Inc. (NYSE: V) to $410 from $400, maintaining its Buy rating. This adjustment comes after observing stronger quarter-to-date trends and diminishing concerns over U.S. inbound travel, which had previously been seen as a potential obstacle. The firm noted that both Visa and Mastercard are on solid ground, with stable fundamentals supported by improved transaction trends and steady cross-border volumes, indicating resilience in the payments sector.

However, Jefferies also acknowledged that much of the recent optimism may already be reflected in the strong year-to-date performance and elevated valuations of both companies. While the underlying business trends remain healthy, the firm suggested that the near-term upside for Visa shares may be less straightforward. Despite this, Jefferies views Visa as well-positioned for long-term growth, supported by its global reach, robust payment infrastructure, and exposure to the growing digital commerce sector. With travel-related concerns easing and consumer spending holding up, Visa remains a core holding for investors looking to capitalize on the broader shift toward electronic payments.

Visa expressed optimism about its future growth, noting that while cross-border performance may remain slightly below last year's levels, the company is prepared for variability. This strategic outlook underscores Visa's confidence in its ability to navigate market fluctuations and continue delivering value to its shareholders.
