BUY $1,001 - $15,000 — American Express Company Common Stock

⚠️ PRESIDENTIAL ACTION: Presidential Memorandum signed 7/30/2026: "Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 101 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as Amended". This DPA action will boost investment and production in domestic critical mineral recycling and processing, likely increasing stock valuations for pure-play recovery companies and defense contractors reliant on secure rare-earth magnet supplies, while potentially raising costs for import-dependent manufacturers.

Congressional Legislation Affecting American Express Company ($AXP)

The Bankruptcy Threshold Adjustment Act of 2026 (S.3977 / HR7730) expands Chapter 13 consumer and small business debt eligibility 5-6x, directly increasing lender loss-given-default on unsecured credit. Pure-play Capital One ($COF at $191.14) faces the highest proportional earnings risk. The bill is on the Senate calendar with a companion House bill reported out of committee — active legislative momentum not yet reflected in bank stock rallies (+1-13% over 30 days).

Selective increase in bankruptcy loss severity: Amex's typical charge-off rates (~2.5% pre-pandemic, ~3.2% recent) are lower than subprime issuers, but the expanded limit captures a thin tail of high-balance borrowers who previously could not discharge. Estimated 5-10% increase in peak LGD on the affected sub-portfolio.

S3977

S.J. Res. 129, a CRA resolution to preserve federal preemption of state credit reporting laws, stalled after a motion to proceed was rejected by voice vote on May 13, 2026. This reduces near-term likelihood of passage, keeping regulatory costs for credit bureaus and national lenders at current levels.

SJRES129

S. 3721 is an early-stage bill that would allow states to cap consumer credit APRs, threatening credit card issuer revenue models. The bill has 4 Democratic sponsors and was referred to committee 3 months ago with no further action. Capital One ($COF) has the highest exposure as a pure-play subprime card lender; American Express ($AXP) faces moderate risk on its revolving credit balances. Market data shows $COF and $AXP recently declining 2-3% in the past week, partly reflecting this overhang.

American Express's U.S. consumer card portfolio faces potential APR compression if states enact caps. Amex's premium card base has high credit quality (FICO >700), so APR impact is lower than subprime lenders, but net interest income on revolving balances ($25B+ in 2025) would be squeezed.
