PNC Launches New Digital Direct Deposit: A Move to Boost Fee Income?
The bank unveiled a new feature, PNC Direct Deposit, designed to enable customers to automatically set up direct deposits for payroll, Social Security payments, or other regular income through the PNC Mobile app.
PNC Direct Deposit is an integrated experience that provides clients with a seamless and streamlined option to update or change their direct deposit preferences with just a few clicks, eliminating the need to fill out forms or make phone calls. It combines the roles of the employer, payroll provider, and bank into a single digital interface. The solution has been developed in partnership with the account-switching fintech Atomic.
The new digital solution eliminates the need for users to manually enter routing and account numbers, thereby minimizing the risk of user errors and payment delays.
Alex Overstrom, head of Retail Banking, stated that, "This integrated direct deposit solution is just another example of how PNC is continuously enhancing and improving the client experience."
Overstrom further added, "By embedding direct deposit functions directly within the mobile app, our clients can seamlessly update and manage their direct deposit preferences without the hassle of filling out paperwork and finding routing and account numbers."
By allowing customers to easily set up and manage their deposits using the mobile app, PNC Direct Deposit serves as a strategic tool to deepen customer relationships and positions itself to capitalize on increased engagement with fee-generating products and services. As more customers centralize their finances with PNC, the bank stands to gain from increased adoption of services that carry associated fees, ultimately supporting its broader goal of expanding its non-interest income base.
Over the past year, PNC shares have gained 20.4% year to date compared with the industry's growth of 34.1%.

Success Of Ryan Poles, Ben Johnson Is Tied To Caleb Williams
Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles, right, speaks as head coach Ben Johnson, left, listens ... More before introducing new players Drew Dalman and Dayo Odeyingbo at Halas Hall on March 13, 2025, in Lake Forest, Illinois. (Chris Sweda/Chicago Tribune/Tribune News Service via Getty Images) Patience has indeed proven to be a virtue with Ryan Poles, the Chicago Bears' fourth-year general manager. He was hired for a four-year term in 2022 and is being rewarded with a contract extension that runs through 2029. This gives Poles an eight-year commitment from Bears ownership and president Kevin Warren despite his having produced a 15-36 record in his first two seasons. His predecessor, Ryan Pace, had a 48-65 record over seven seasons, including a 22-27 mark in his final three. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Friday Poles is receiving an extension that gives him the same timing on his deal as head coach Ben Johnson, who Poles hired in January after making Matt Eberflus the Bears' first-ever coach fired in midseason. Poles had hired Eberflus on his third day on the job after inheriting a coaching search that had been run at the same time Chairman George McCaskey was searching for a new GM to replace Pace. It was a dubious process that did little other than to allow the Bears to assemble talent through the draft in the Eberflus years, biding their time in hope of becoming relevant again. That time arrives in 2025, with the Bears hoping for at least a winning season in the deep NFC North. The success of quarterback Caleb Williams, who was taken with the first overall pick in the '24 draft, is critical for both Poles and Johnson, who chose to sign with Chicago after earning respect while building an explosive offense behind Jared Goff in Detroit. Poles has proven to be a skilled negotiator in seemingly upgrading the roster. He rebuilt the offensive line after Williams was sacked 68 times in his rookie season, adding Chiefs All-Pro guard Joe Thuney at the cost of only a fourth-round pick while also signing free agent center Drew Dalman and trading for guard Jonah Jackson. His signature move was the trading of the first overall pick to Carolina in '23, which at the time committed a third season to struggling quarterback Justin Fields, whom Poles had inherited from Pace. Rather than draft Bryce Young or C.J. Stroud, he took wide receiver D.J. Moore and a package of draft pick to allow the Panthers to move from ninth to first overall. Poles turned those picks into Williams, tackle Darnell Wright, cornerback Tyrique Stevenson, punter Tory Taylor and wide receiver Luther Burden III. "Yeah, I feel pretty good," Poles said after selecting Burden in the second round last April. 'I think it's worked out for us.' The moves have certainly worked well for Poles, who had worked in the Chiefs' front office before being hired by McCaskey. The hope is they also work out for the franchise and its fans. Leila Rahimi, the insightful talk show host for WSCR, summed up the feeling in Chicago nicely. 'You just got paid for winning an offseason, not a season,' Rahimi said. 'I want to see a season.'

Goldman Sachs Upgrades Oshkosh Corporation (OSK) Stock to Buy
Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) is one of the Top 10 Transportation and Industrial Stocks to Buy Now. Goldman Sachs analyst Jerry Revich upgraded the company's stock to 'Buy' from 'Neutral' with a price objective of $131, up from the prior target of $124, as reported by The Fly. The firm noted that consensus estimates for Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) embed tariff risks, mentioning that it anticipates improvement in the Transportation margins, thanks to the completed contract renewals for tactical wheeled vehicle products after a period of underperformance post-COVID. A worker welding an intricate frame in a factory for heavy construction machinery.

With a healthy foundation and clear vision, Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) continues to target healthy revenue and adjusted EPS growth over the upcoming 3 years.

Here is what the fund said: 'Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) is a specialty vehicle manufacturer that operates across three segments – Access Equipment (JLG lifts and telehandlers), Vocational (fire trucks, airport equipment, dump trucks, etc.), and Defense (which includes the new US Postal Service trucks). The Fund has owned shares of OSK since its inception in 2002 but has added and trimmed since then. OshKosh has a long history of earnings growth and strong returns on capital. In 2024, OSK shares declined because of lowered expectations for JLG earnings. The company's leverage is low, it has a long and successful operating history, and its shares trade at roughly eight times our estimate of normal earnings.

Trump to use presidential authority to send weapons to Ukraine, sources say
By Mike Stone WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump for the first time since returning to office will send weapons to Kyiv under a presidential power frequently used by his predecessor, two sources familiar with the decision said on Thursday, a move suggesting new interest by the president in defending Ukraine. More than three years after Russia's invasion of its neighbor, Trump's team will identify arms from U.S. stockpiles to send to Ukraine under the Presidential Drawdown Authority, the sources said, with one saying they could be worth around $300 million. Trump on Tuesday said the U.S. would send more weapons to Ukraine to help the country defend itself against intensifying Russian advances. The package could include defensive Patriot missiles and offensive medium-range rockets, but a decision on the exact equipment has not been made, the sources said. One of the people said this would happen at a meeting on Thursday. So far, the Trump administration has only sent weapons authorized by former President Joe Biden, who was a staunch supporter of Kyiv. Presidential Drawdown Authority allows the president to draw from weapons stocks to help allies in an emergency. The Pentagon and the White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Republican president's stance on defending Ukraine has been inconsistent. At times he has criticized U.S. spending and spoken favorably of Russia but also sometimes has voiced support for Kyiv and disparaged the Kremlin. The U.S. has $3.86 billion worth of Presidential Drawdown Authority for Ukraine remaining. The last drawdown was a $500 million award by Biden on January 9. Ukraine's top priorities are Patriot missile interceptors and GMLRS mobile rocket artillery which may be included in the package. The weapons could be on the front lines within days because stocks are positioned in Europe. The Trump administration this month halted shipments of some critical weapons that were approved by Biden but some of those shipments have resumed. Congress has approved nearly $175 billion of aid and military assistance for Ukraine and allied nations in the nearly 3-1/2 years since Russia's full-scale invasion.
