Monitor the bank's stock for volatility as the market prices in CEO succession risk. Key catalysts will be the announcement of a successor and any interim management changes. The orderly timeline to October 26, 2026, provides a window for the board to find a qualified replacement, which could limit downside if a strong candidate is named quickly.
