A rare downgrade hit META today. The social media giant — worth $1.66 trillion — slipped from Buy to Hold at one firm. The consensus average target sits at $790. Short interest is just 1.4% of free float, so bears are scarce.
FSLR got the opposite treatment. First Solar was upgraded, pushing the consensus average target to $276. The solar manufacturer carries 11.4% short interest — elevated for its sector. An upgrade here adds pressure to any shorts still holding.
NKE took a target price cut. Analysts trimmed their average to $46.32. Six firms now rate the stock a Sell. Short interest stands at 8.1% of free float. The stock has faced persistent pressure from weak China sales and inventory concerns.
In banking, USB and PNC both saw targets nudged higher. Meanwhile, CFG and MTB got small target cuts.
COIN drew a target price increase. The average analyst target for Coinbase now sits at $206. Crypto sentiment remains volatile but Wall Street stays cautiously bullish.
GPN received a fresh analyst recommendation at $105. The payments firm has faced headwinds from competition and margin pressure.
