META received a rare downgrade today, moving the consensus from 54 buys to 53. The $1.6 trillion social media giant now carries a single sell rating. Average analyst target sits at $790.27. Short interest is just 1.4% of free float — bears have little foothold.
FSLR got the opposite treatment. Analysts upgraded First Solar, pushing the buy count from 26 to 26 with a higher target of $276.17, up from $272. The solar panel maker carries 10.9% short interest — elevated for a $19 billion company. A consensus upgrade could squeeze those shorts.
NKE saw another target price cut, with the average dropping to $46.32 from $46.74. Six sell ratings now sit alongside 26 holds. Nike's short interest stands at 8.1% of free float. Analysts remain deeply skeptical of the brand's recovery.
Banks drew mixed signals. USB and PNC both received target price lifts. Regional lenders MTB and got cuts.
AMAT had its target trimmed to $638.63. The chip equipment firm faces 31 buy ratings but softening price targets as semiconductor cycle concerns persist.
