We believe the company will continue to weather various macro and competitive pressures in a rising rate environment by flexing its scale and customer-centric focus in support of its industry leading cost advantage. We also think the TD Ameritrade acquisition will create incremental value and further enhance SCHW’s marketplace standing and long-term growth trajectory."
