Mairs & Power Growth Fund made the following comment about The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

“Notable detractors to performance in the first half were US Bank (USB), Charles Schwab (SCHW), and The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW), which were down 22.09%, 31.65%, and 8.65%, respectively. Charles Schwab was also caught up in the banking selloff in March. The company’s earnings will likely be pressured in the near term from lower deposit balances and higher-cost funding, but we believe these headwinds will eventually abate. In the meantime, the company continues to take share from its competitors thanks to its low-cost position.”
