American Express Co (NYSE:AXP).'s shares ended a two-day winning streak on Thursday, closing at $151.28, a slight decline of 0.15%.

The stock's closing price left it $30.87 short of its 52-week high, which was achieved on February 14th.
The company's performance was mixed in comparison to its competitors. JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) & Co. closed at $145.81, reflecting a 0.23% drop, and Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC). ended the day at $26.90 after a fall of 0.44%. Visa Inc (NYSE:V)., on the other hand, bucked the trend, closing at $236.78, an increase of 0.47%.

American Express has also maintained dividend payments for 53 consecutive years, with a current dividend yield of 1.58%. This aligns with another InvestingPro Tip that the strong earnings should allow management to continue dividend payments.
Despite the recent slight decline in the share price, the company's revenue growth has been positive, with a 10.52% growth in the last twelve months ending in Q2 2023. However, it is worth noting that the revenue growth has been slowing down recently.
