As another earnings season picks up, Bank of America says investors may find upside opportunities in certain underowned stocks that could beat expectations.

JPMorgan Chase , Wells Fargo , Citigroup , as well as regional name PNC Financial , are posting their quarterly results before the bell.
The stock is considered a defensive name with promising dividend growth, currently yielding 2.7%.
