Analysts lifted targets on several names this week. Three upgrades stand out for their size and breadth.
DDOG got the boldest call. Citigroup's Fatima Boolani raised her target to $270 from $218 — a 24% jump. She kept her Buy rating. Datadog carries a $76.5B market cap. Short interest is just 4.4% of free float. Bears are not a major force here.
HOOD also caught a fresh boost. Argus Research's Stephen Biggar raised his target to $110 from $90. That is a 22% increase. Robinhood's market cap has climbed to $76.5B. The stock now commands a Buy rating from Argus.
FDX saw its consensus target rise to $325.88 from $317.62. That is a more modest lift. But the direction is clear — analysts see the logistics giant recovering. Short interest sits at just 1.6% of free float.
KMB got a surprise upgrade from Piper Sandler. Michael Lavery moved the consumer staples name to Buy with a $121 target. The old target was $115.
TGT rounded out the session. Consensus target edged up to $132.20. The retail giant remains a Hold-dominated name with 23 neutral ratings.
